About this property
Peggy Hill Cottage - Two Bedroom House, Sleeps 4
A former farmhouse in the 19th century and now in the conservation area of old Ambleside. Located on a little pedestrian byway with views to Wansfell and Loughrigg, this cottage has been very carefully restored, retaining its character and updated for 21st century living. With two en-suite bedrooms it is ideal for two couples wishing to stay together or for a family visit in any season of the year.
Accommodation
The cottage has a pretty front porch with a stained glass door - pick up your key and use the side door through the utility area where there is ample space for boots and clothing. This leads through to the dining/kitchen and then on into the cozy sitting room with LCD TV, DVD, log burner and free wi-fi.
Stairs start in the sitting room, half-landing with wc and basin. Upstairs there are two bedrooms - a spacious double with king-size bed, en-suite with double size mains pressure shower, basin and wc, and a twin room also en-suite with bath and a shower over the bath, basin and wc. The twin room has views towards Wansfell, while the double room looks out towards both Wansfell and Loughrigg.
The cottage has been well renovated by the owners, and tastefully furnished throughout with beamed ceilings and slate floors downstairs and fitted carpets upstairs. Gas central heating keeps you cosy in any season and the log burner provides that warm winter feeling.
Outside
To the front is an enclosed patio area with garden furniture and view - just the spot for a barbecue or glass of wine. Although on-street parking may be available close by, the cottage benefits from a parking permit which allows free parking on all South Lakeland District car parks, including Rydal Road car park a few minutes walk from the cottage. Ambleside village shops, pubs etc., are all close by.
