1535 - Walters Cottage
About the home
Situated just a short walk away from the centre of Ambleside is this pretty and traditional cottage – a delightful end of terrace Lakeland property. This former bobbin maker's cottage is tucked away in a secluded position offering lovely views of the local fells, including the picturesque Wansfell Pike. There is also a fitted kitchen with lovely dining area and a lounge with a gas fire for chilly evenings. The property is well served by the town’s numerous local amenities and is excellently placed for walking through the scenic Lake District countryside. Grasmere and the Langdale Valley are just a short drive away, whilst Lake Windermere offers boat trips and watersports.

The Cumbria/Lake District region
Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes – the Lake District landscape has inspired several literary greats, including William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. Water, where you can cruise the lake on a steam-powered yacht soaking up the scenery in Victorian style, could be for you. Walking is one of the best ways of exploring the Lake District.
For the serious walker the mountains of Skiddaw, Scafell and Helvellyn provide enjoyable challenges, whilst at lower levels there are hundreds of routes wandering among the lakes and stone-walled fields. You can even choose a lake to suit your mood: if bustling lakeside towns and exhilarating watersports take your fancy, then Windermere and Coniston Water, where you can cruise the lake on a steam-powered yacht soaking up the scenery in Victorian style, could be for you.
If it’s peace and tranquility you seek then the secluded lakes of Buttermere and Wastwater are not to be missed. Yet Cumbria offers much more than the lakes alone. Explore the National Nature Reserve on Walney Island or visit the picturesque Duddon Valley, where the heather clad moors peppered with birch trees inspired many of Wordsworth’s poems. With its award-winning gardens and the Lakeland Motor Museum, Holker Hall is also a great day out, whilst in northern Cumbria the peaceful villages of Caldbeck and Ireby offer a haven of solitude and picturesque tranquility.
To the east lies the green and sheltered Eden Valley. Its dramatic landscape provides a range of activities including walking, cycling and watersports and is home to the Lakeland Bird of Prey Centre and Lowther Wildlife Park, perfect for a family day out
The Ambleside / Edinboro area
The lovely town of Ambleside is situated at the northern tip of Lake Windermere and is a superb base for touring the central Lakes. With Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away, there is plenty to do in this picturesque location. Ambleside itself is famous for its annual rush-bearing ceremony and its diminutive 17th Century "Bridge House" – possibly the most photographed building in the Lake District. The lakes themselves are ideal places for cruises, boat trips and water sports, whilst the surrounding towns offer numerous shops, restaurants and pubs. There is also a short stretch of beach at Waterhead, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the pretty waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force.

The only downside was the hill up to the cottage from Ambleside - a nice walk normally, but a bit steep at the end of a tiring day Verified by FlipKey, a TripAdvisor company |

Guestbook for 1535 - Walters Cottage
The cottage was warm and cosy given the terrible weather and really it did have everything one would need. It was ideally situated and enjoyed a lovely view and yet it was very convenient for the town.
