The small Lakeland village of Troutbeck can be found between its more famous neighbours Windermere and Ambleside, close by the Kirkstone Pass. A mixture of houses, cottages and farms, the village is scattered along a narrow lane bordered by a drystone wall. Many of these buildings date back to the 17th Century with features such as mullioned windows and heavy cylindrical chimneys and the northern end boasts its own 17th century inn. Close by, the bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are popular with visitors, providing a range of amenities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips, including the lakeside ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. The ‘Windermere Steamboat Museum’ displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst children will enjoy the ‘World of Beatrix Potter’ in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Within easy reach of destinations such as Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains, Troutbeck is ideally situated for exploring all that the region has to offer.

  • James

    The new bathroom is a really nice addition and hopefully is part of a wider programme of refurbishment. We enjoy the on site pool and bar/restaurant and the cottage is ideally located for trips to Penrith, Keswick, Grasmere, Ambleside and the like.

  • Alexander

    The facilities on site are fantastic - we particularly appreciated the pool and leisure suite and the crazy golf - as is the location. And, certainly out of season, the site is quiet although most of the cottages seemed to be in use and there is a pleasant buzz about the site. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The cottage was clean and comfortable. Had a great holiday. Thank you Note to the owner: A spatula / fish slice and a wooden spoon would really improve the kitchen.
