About this property

STRIDING HOME, family friendly, with open fire in Ambleside

Striding Home in Ambleside, Cumbria, sleeps ten guests in five bedrooms.

Striding Home is a welcoming house in Ambleside, Cumbria, set within Lake District National Park, boasting a glowing woodburning stove and nearby amenities.

Amenities: Property heating: Gas central heating and wood-burning stove. Electric oven, Induction hob, Microwave, Fridge Freezer, Washing Machine, Tumble Dryer. Wi-Fi included. Fuel and power inc. in rent. Bed linen and towels inc. in rent. EV charger available. Highchair. Sorry, no pets or smoking. Shop and pub within 0.25 miles

Region: Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.

Town: 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.
