Location As locations go, the centre of Ambleside is hard to beat. Whether you're hiking the beautiful fells which surround this bustling Lakeland village, taking a stroll down to the lake shore (where a passenger ferry can transport you to any one of a number of delights around the impressive lake Windermere) or simply ambling down to a local hostelry, dining at a highly regarded restaurant or visiting one of the many cinema screens, everything you might require for a relaxing break is virtually on your doorstep. And yet No.1 could also be a wonderful permanent home for those who would value such comfort and convenience in the heart of the Lake District National Park.
