Pet friendly cottage, sleeps 2 - Ambleside, Cumbria

Briardale Cottage is a charming early 20th century property, one of six pleasant terrace houses situ-ated in a quiet cul-de-sac yet close to Ambleside’s many attractions. A short stroll will take you to the centre of town for a romantic meal or a relaxing drink in the one of its many restaurants, bars and cafes. Enjoy browsing the shops, catch the latest film at one of the two excellent cinemas or enjoy a river walk through lovely Rothay Park.

If you feel more adventurous take on one of the acclaimed Lakeland trails such as the walk to the top of Wansfell, Todd Crag or the more challenging Fairfield Horseshoe and all from your own door-step. After a busy day, relax with your favourite drink, dine alfresco or take time out to admire the lovely views in the peaceful communal gardens, where the table and chairs on your patio await. You will appreciate the peacefulness as there is no passing traffic.

Arriving at the cottage, unload the car from your own parking space which sits right by your front door. Enter the enclosed porch entrance and store your outdoor wear. Sit on the leather sofa and feel the cosy warmth of the log burner set into the deep fireplace.

Explore further to find your charming shaker style kitchen and dining area with cream units and wooden worktops. The lovely shared rear garden can be reached along a small hallway through the back door. This cottage also benefits from a convenient downstairs bathroom.

Climb the stairs to discover your good-sized bedroom with king-size bed and fitted wardrobes with plenty of storage, as well as a contemporary bathroom where you can enjoy a refreshing shower. With so much adventure right on your doorstep, Briardale Cottage offers a wonderful base for your next family holiday to the Lake District.
