Holiday rental cottage in Ambleside, Cumbria

Resting in an elevated position equally between Lake Windermere and the centre of Ambleside village, with fine views to the fells around, is this detached holiday home, Bield How. Tastefully furnished and decorated in a contemporary style while boasting an excellent position within the Lake District National Park, Bield How is the perfect base for a family in pursuit of an adventure-filled holiday.

Head through the door at the side of the property into the hallway where you can hang coats and leave boots before finding the sitting room. After a day of traversing the fells, look forward to putting your feet up whilst catching up on your favourite shows. Discover the light and airy kitchen/diner for all your culinary essentials, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher and a handy washer/dryer if your trails take off on a muddier route.

As the evening draws to a close, catch your rest in the master bedroom, kitted out with a king-size bed and en-suite bathroom with bath and shower over, while the twin room serves perfectly for children and benefits from an en-suite shower room. Both bedrooms have wall-mounted flat screen TVs and fitted cupboards for storing your personal belongings.

The patio area to the front of the house offers you a tranquil spot to enjoy a drink whilst admiring views of the fell, plus there is also off-road parking for one car on the shared driveway. Positioned close to the Waterhead district of Ambleside, you are not far from the pier which provides regular cruises across the lake, offering you a chance to see the beauty of the area with stop-offs at Bowness-on-Windermere and Lakeside.

Get to know your surroundings by taking a walk into the town centre where you will be spoilt for choice by the quaint selection of shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants and even an independent cinema. Venture out of Ambleside and visit Wray Castle for the day, which has a huge, largely undiscovered gravel beach of its own, and was Beatrix Potter’s first Lakeland holiday home at the age of 16.

With attractions to suit all ages, a stay at Bield How promises to be an adventure at any time of the year. Note: Aga not available May/June/July/August and September
