"A wonderful house, comfortable and well appointed."
Thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family ranging from 11 to 78. We would all love to visit again. Another bonus was being able to do long challenging walks, straight from the house, without having to drive. Also extremely convenient for the shops and restaurants. An clothes airer in the utility room would be great.

Opulent Victorian ambience in Ambleside.
A perfectly presented Victorian residence, Bracken Howe will quickly become a second home for your party, and is the ideal base for spending special time with friends and family, and enjoying the best of Ambleside and the Lakes. Quality, refinement, and relaxation, not to mention a decadent hot-tub. Lakeland luxury.
This spacious property is packed full of period charm, and the classic wooden furnishings and fittings are complemented by stylish modern décor and an atmosphere of elegant relaxation.
Bring your party together in the classic dining room, and chill out in style in the tasteful drawing room, with its open fire and fine views of Loughrigg fell and the Fairfield Horseshoe. Unwind in front of the large, curved 4K television featuring Sky Sports, Netflix and Discovery+, or choose one of the many books and dvds.
Your own music can be enjoyed via the bluetooth sound systems. The kitchen has a fantastic range cooker, and all the mod cons you could hope for, while children will enjoy 'The Snug', a smaller reception room with a Playstation, X-box, and Nintendo Wii, and a great selection of games.
Outside, the garden with a hot tub makes the perfect space to unwind in the fresh national park air, with furniture perfect for dining alfresco in the warmer months.

Where you’ll be staying
AMBLESIDE
Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.
Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside with its numerous shops 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 the lakeside at Waterhead with parkland offering lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach. 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. Ambleside has plenty of restaurants and pubs to suit all tastes from great fish & chips to its two Michelin Star restaurants and all tastes in between are catered for.
