Lake Windermere is just 2 miles away so you can canoe or kayak across the still waters, catch a boat from Waterhead Pier or try wild swimming. This area is famed for its excellent rock climbs with its close proximity to Langdale Valley.

Ambleside itself has much to offer, such as the annual showcase for traditional Langdale sports including wrestling, fell running and hound trails: Ambleside Sports. Learn about the history of this pretty town in the Armitt Museum, enjoy a family trip to one of the cinemas, or dine out at a quality restaurant - it's all possible in the Lake District so arrange an Ambleside cottage as your next base.
