About this cottage rental

A charming, warm and cosy cottage much loved by its owners. It is in an excellent location within 2 minutes walk of Ambleside and a 10 minute walk to Lake Windermere. The cottage is above the village so it offers stunning views from all rooms of the surrounding hills. Many walks start from the cottage without the need to use a car. Wifi - Unlimited BT internet throughout the cottage. The front door leads into a L shaped sitting room and dining area with a newly fitted kitchen off this. The sitting room has beams and oak flooring with a window seat giving wonderful views to the Langdales. There is a living flame electric stove, a smart TV and DVD player, a radio. On the first floor there is a shower room, a double bedroom and a single. A spiral staircase leads to a large twin room with an en-suite bathroom. There is a small walled sitting area with garden bench facing the right way for the sun. There is a shared courtyard garden behind the cottage where there is a utility room with washing machine/tumble dryer. Beautiful at Christmas/New Year.

Crag View sleeps five very comfortably in 3 bedrooms but the space downstairs is slightly limited so for five full size adults it can feel a little cramped, although we have let it for 5 adults particulary for short breaks. We tend to let to 4 adults or a family with 3 children
The cottage is available Saturday to Saturday except for 3/4 day breaks from November to March unless you contact the owners directly

Crag View is a lovely cottage located a short walk from downtown Ambleside. Cottage is perfect for a family or a solo visit. Great views, easy access and accommodating hosts. My son and I had a wonderful visit.

We coincided our visit with our daughter’s graduation at Lancaster University. It was the perfect location to spend a week walking the fells and to take a day into Lancaster. The cottage was perfect for everyone. Would love to return one day.

I can’t recommend this cottage enough. It was the perfect size for 2 adults, 2 children and a dog. It was very clean and had everything we needed for a 3 night stay. The views from the windows are amazing and it’s just a short walk into Ambleside. The Wi-Fi is great, there’s a smart TV as well which came in handy for a relaxing afternoon after a long walk. The beds are also very comfy. We will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our time in this lovely home. We have spent a full week here and the owner gave us all the info needed to have a pleasant stay in this property. We enjoyed the fact we could make hikes right from here. Also Ambleside shops and restaurants are all within walking distance. We loved the area and we hope to come back to the lake district in the future.

Great location. Walking distance to everything in town and the lake. Spotlessly clean and comfortable, with all the necessary accesories and amenities. Brand new, wonderful, utility room.. I would definitely recommend this cottage for sightseeing, walking holidays or just chilling, as the views are to die for.

Crag View was the perfect base for us to enjoy the wonderful weather we were lucky enough to enjoy during out time in The Lakes. The cottage was lovely and the hosts were very welcoming and informative. A great place to stay to drive to the many walks in the Lake District and within walking distance to many great pubs and restaurants. Now to book for next year!

We stayed in this lovely cottage during a very wet week, with flood warnings on 3 days, but throughout that time the cottage was perfectly warm and cosy, with everything you need and with lovely views of the weather over Ambleside and the mountains. The hosts were great, giving enough information but not intruding, and the kitchen is well equipped. Even in all the rain we were still able to manage some lower level walks, the countryside is always stunning. We hope to be back again soon.

A cosy cottage with an interesting history and a great view. The cottage will sleep five, however, it may be a bit tight in the living area for five adults. For a small family or four adults or less, it is ideal. It has all the utilities that you would require for a short holiday including a utility room in the shared courtyard to the rear of the property. There is also parking available for one car in front of the cottage. Peter or Pat will call you on your first evening and go through the operation of all the appliances and provide guidance and recommendations for local eateries and walks. Ambleside is ideally located for most Lake District activities and the view from this cottage adds to the whole experience. Well recommended.

Lovely little cottage in a brilliant location, views from the cottage were stunning. Spent lots of time sat on the front terrace watching the sun go down. Good location for rambling about and short little walk to the village for shopping and eating out. Plenty of space for 2 adults, a teenager and 2 little dogs. The attic en-suite bedroom was spacious. Good internet connection (a must for the teenager!) Will be returning at some point next year.

The property is ideally located just 5 minutes walk into Ambleside and the views across Waterhead are amazing. The rooms are bijou but everything is here for the perfect lakes holiday base.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Wonderful view across the fells to the west. Lashings of hot water made a welcome end to a long day walking. Kitchen was fully equipped and there was a quaint procedure for using the washing machine. Communication with the host was excellent. Overall, if we were to be in Ambleside again we'd probably book here.

My partner and I stayed at Crag View Cottage from 28th December until 2nd January. We could not fault it. The views from the window over Ambleside and the Langdales were phenomenal, particularly with the snow! The location of the cottage is ideal. It is just a short 5 minute walk into the centre and you are able to walk to Loughrigg Fell, Rydal caves and Wansfell Pike from the cottage. We will definitely be returning!
