Located just a stone's throw away from the hub of Ambleside in an elevated position, is this attractive semi-detached cottage built in traditional slate, perfectly situated for enjoying all the facilities that this town has to offer. Beautifully-presented throughout with a mix of traditional character complemented with modern amenities, makes this a charming base for friends and family wishing to be superbly located in one of the most breathtaking parts of the Lake District. As you enter the cottage you will see the integrity of the building has been enhanced from the open plan kitchen/diner with its stone-flagged floor and the comfortable seating area with original stone fireplace.
Enjoy the woodburner which is perfect to keep warm and cosy on those chilly winter evenings. All three bedrooms enjoy views across the rooftops to Lakeland fells and Loughrigg, with the spacious second floor bedroom boasting a stunning vaulted ceiling, beams and en-suite, as well as a seating area. Ambleside has a bustling centre with an excellent selection of independent shops, pubs and restaurants, along with water activities such as the lake cruises.

After a day at Coniston, Grasmere or Windermere, or indeed after a day's hiking, this beautiful cottage awaits you when you return.
An excellent cottage for enjoying the stunning Lake District all year round.

Ideal Location in Ambleside
Situated directly opposite the main car park in Ambleside, Loughrigg View is ideally situated for exploring the area.
The accommodation was very comfortable and warm and had everything we needed for our visit.
The master bedroom was beautiful with a very smart en-suite and the rest of the accommodation was of a good standard.
My only criticisms are it would be useful to have a proper folder containing all the information/instructions about the accommodation in one place as well as information about the area for Lake District newbies.
