With a premium waterside location and spacious accommodation, this high-class holiday home is a special place for a getaway in the Lake District with family or friends. Situated on the edge of Lake Windermere with access to the shore via a shared jetty (ideal if you are planning to bring a boat) and just a short walk to the town of Ambleside, this charming home could not be better placed. Enjoy the waterside restaurants and cafes that are just a stone’s throw away, and Waterhead Pier, 150 metres from your door, is where you can catch a boat to cruise on Lake Windermere. With an unrivalled range of water sports, walks, climbs, cycling and much more, Ambleside is very popular with both leisure visitors wanting a relaxing break and outdoor enthusiasts looking for a challenge. There are also some fabulous restaurants, cafés and pubs serving local produce and award-winning ales to quench your thirst. Ambleside’s independent shops offer a welcome variation on high street chains, and there is no shortage of outdoor clothing specialists waiting to kit you out for any activity.

This tastefully decorated and spacious accommodation is packed with contemporary comforts. As you enter, the kitchen/diner to your left features cream cabinets and wooden flooring, along with a lovely wooden dining table with chairs. Doors lead from here out to the patio. A utility room houses the fridge/freezer and washer/dryer, and you’ll also find a shower room here. On the other side of the main hallway is the spacious dining room with a large table and chairs and an attractive gas fire. The accommodation flows through from here to a light, contemporary lounge with high ceiling and large windows offering ever-changing views of the lake beyond. There is plenty of space to kick back and relax in front of the TV. French doors lead to the fabulous, decked area outside. The property also features three tastefully decorated double bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms have their own sink, and the master bedroom enjoys lake views across the garden. There is an additional bunk room – perfect for the younger members of the group. The stylish family bathroom is a lovely calm space for a relaxing soak at the end of the day.
