About this property
This classy apartment is spread over two floors, accessed by an external staircase. It is a
romantic retreat at the heart of the Lake District’s most cosmopolitan village. There are a wealth
of exhilarating walks and lake shore attractions to explore close by.
The stunning panoramic views from The Bowery have to be seen to be fully appreciated, creating
a beautiful backdrop for the relaxing interior.
Sleek wood floors, elegant décor mixed with fun touches. You can dine at the kitchen island, in
the living room with fell views, al-fresco on your bijou patio, get a home delivery or take a stroll
out to sample the myriad of eateries in Ambleside.
Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside 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 numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst 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.
