About this property
Park View is a welcoming three-storey house, nestled in Ambleside, Cumbria. This family-friendly retreat features a toasty woodburning stove, an enclosed rear garden and lake proximity, making it a lovely base for friends or families exploring Lake District National Park. After parking in the designated permit space, guests enter through a shared gate and are greeted by a traditional stone exterior and a slate-tiled entrance porch — the perfect spot to leave boots and coats after a day exploring the fells. Inside, the sitting room offers a warm and inviting space to relax, with soft seating and the gentle glow of the woodburning stove setting the scene for evenings in.
The kitchen/diner is designed for easy mornings and sociable evenings, with a breakfast bar ideal for planning the day ahead over coffee or enjoying a relaxed supper. The electric oven, induction hob and air fryer make cooking a breeze, while the dishwasher, fridge-freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer ensure everything is taken care of behind the scenes. On the first floor, guests will find a double and a twin bedroom, both thoughtfully styled and served by a well-appointed shower room with walk-in shower, basin and WC. A second shower room on this level adds extra flexibility, and a cloakroom provides further convenience.
The top floor is home to a spacious super-king-size bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, where guests can enjoy a view of the nearby church from the shower — a quiet moment to start or end the day. All bedrooms are equipped with TVs, offering everyone a chance to unwind with their favourite show in peace. Outside, the enclosed rear garden offers a private patio with furniture, ideal for enjoying a drink or simply soaking up the fresh Cumbrian air. With a shop and pub just a short stroll away, and the lake within easy reach, everything you need is close at hand.
Park View is a delightful base for discovering the best of Ambleside and the Lake District. Note: This property can be booked with ref. 1184435, together sleeping 8 guests.
Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside with its numerous shops makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips, and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and the lakeside at Waterhead with parkland offering lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach. A walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre. Ambleside has plenty of restaurants and pubs to suit all tastes from great fish & chips to its two Michelin Star restaurants and all tastes in between are catered for.
