  • "Lovely little cottage with everything we needed."

    Small but perfect for our needs. We especially liked the off road parking and the proximity to both the town centre and Waterhead. Loved the open plan layout and the tasteful decor. Everything seemed freshly decorated with nice carpets throughout and beautiful quality soft furnishings and bedding. Plenty of crockery, cutlery etc The cleanliness of the property was very high overall but just a slight niggle was the shower curtain, which was stained with mildew at the bottom, and the dish drainer in the kitchen which had grime and scum in the grooves and in the cutlery compartment. Let’s just say I left the dish drainer cleaner than I found it. These were two very tiny things but I feel it should be mentioned as they are both easy to fix. We had a brilliant stay at Cringol Cottage and we would definitely stay again. Highly recommend it.

About the location

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 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 numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst 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.
