Area 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.
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.

Our stay in Rose Cottage was wonderful. Everything was immaculately clean and so much thought had been put into providing a comfortable stay for guests. It’s a stylish and cosy house which has been furnished beautifully. The beds were very comfortable too.
The location was perfect as it’s is right in the middle of Ambleside so you can pop out and pick up anything you need. It was great for people watching too as it has plenty of large windows (and plenty of natural light). Having the ‘river room’ as we called it added to its charm as you could sit and watch the water while you relaxed.
We were delighted on arrival to find some fresh milk in the fridge which we thought was a very thoughtful touch (we were certainly ready for a cup of tea after our journey), along with the welcome basket of goodies. We have stayed in many lakes cottages but this was the best equipped by far.
The two parking permits were really useful too and we got a lot of use out of them during our week.
We would definitely stay ant Rose Cottage again, it had everything we needed and more. The overwhelming feeling was that the hosts care about their guests and have put a lot of thought and effort into providing a welcoming place - there were even teabags!
Thank you for a lovely break away in your home, we even had the added bonus of some beautiful sunny weather!
Kind regards, Steve and Lisa

Rose Cottage is a fantastic house! The design and quality of the fixtures and furnishings is superb. We stay in Ambleside every year, it's our favourite place for a relaxing family holiday.
Rose Cottage is definitely one of the best cottages we have stayed in. It's centrally located so you can walk to restaurants, shops, pubs etc very easily. Although being opposite The Apple Pie Shop was a huge temptation (my sister is obsessed with their Bath Buns)!
The owners were very helpful and friendly, and all the information needed for the stay was easy to find.
Fantastic cottage, fantastic location, fantastic hosts!
