Riverside

Riverside is a grand Victorian country house resting at the foot of Loughrigg Fell and borders the edge of Rothay Park, Ambleside.

Riverside is located in a prime position in the heart of the stunning Lake District National Park.

This stone-built, semi-detached beautiful house, offers a luxury retreat, combining contemporary comforts and quintessentially Cumbrian architecture to create a most inviting and prestigious base for friends and families.

Sitting at the foot of Loughrigg, just a short walk from the town centre via Rothay Park, with the River Rothay running alongside the property, this well-equipped home has a wonderfully private feel and everything you could need for a memorable break with walks from the doorstep.

Inside, seven stylish bedrooms rest over the first and second floors, made up of six king-size and one twin, each with Smart TVs for early nights or lazy mornings.

When it's time to freshen up, five of the rooms have their own en-suites, whilst the remaining two share a sleek Jack-and-Jill bathroom.

Full-equipped and ready for rustling up home-cooked favourites and dining at the island, the kitchen is sure to be a dream for the chef of the group; complete with fabulous extras such as a hot tap, coffee maker and wine cooler, as well as quality essentials including two dishwashers, a large American-style fridge/freezer and an oven and an induction hob.

From here, you will find a sitting room with a flame-effect fire, perfect for cosying up next to after a day of exploring.

Alternatively, you can catch up on some work in the study spaces or spend quality time playing board games or watching a film in the cinema room, which boasts sound effects and a fabulous electric fire.

Make your way outdoors to take advantage of the multilevel garden, where barbecue dinners can bring your loved ones together; this wonderful space provides lawned and terraced areas to relax on while listening to the river running by - an idyllic way to end the day.

If you can tear yourself away from Riverside, a short and scenic walk will take you to the centre of Ambleside, where a wealth of restaurants and shops welcome you to explore.

If you're travelling with children, Rothay Park makes for a fun-filled afternoon out, with the vast beauty of the surroundings painting a perfect backdrop.

Avid walkers and cyclists will be in heaven in this trail hotspot; setting off in any direction guarantees amazing scenery, or you can take some of the popular routes towards Rydal and into the fells.

Rydal Water with its shoreline walks adds an extra tranquillity to the location, which is one of the central most points of the Lake District.

Home to William Wordsworth for some years there are many walks spreading out from Rydal with spectacular views.

Wander along hillside paths to Grasmere, or up the impressive Rydal Fell and Nab Scar with fantastic scenery spanning as far as the hills on the west coast on a clear day.

Enjoy a luxurious Lake District holiday at Riverside.
