Perched in an elevated position, Crag View is a first-floor apartment in a stunning Victorian manor house, with many of its original features still intact. The property is set in 3-acre grounds of mature communal gardens and woodland. There is a dedicated off-street parking space and ample spaces for other cars.

Within a short walk is Lake Windermere, less than 200m, accessed via Borrans Park, a popular spot for a picnic. Make sure to visit the 1st century AD remains of Galava Roman fort just next door. For the ramblers in your family, many of the fells can be accessed on foot from your front door, including Todd Crag with iconic views down Lake Windermere.
On your doorstep you have the Waterhead pier – a perfect photo moment. Here you can catch one of the lake cruises, or grab a bite to eat or a coffee from one of the surrounding cafés. Head into Ambleside itself, a short and easy 10-minute stroll. There are many shops, traditional Lakeland pubs, restaurants and two cinemas. The Michelin-starred The Old Stamp House restaurant is a special visit; named the best restaurant in the world by Trip Advisor in 2021.

Nicely furnished and ideally located flat with nice views. Short walk to Ambleside, very close to bus station where you can take bus rides to nearly all destinations in the Lake District. Flat has everything you need and is situated on the second floor of a nice property located in a beautiful large garden. Highly recommended!

Very happy with the accommodation overall. A very warm and comfortable apartment, which was well equipped. The only thing which let it down were several cobwebs in the main bedroom above the bed and in the en suite shower room. The height of the ceiling could be a problem in the bedroom but not in the shower room. Having said this, we would certainly go again and can highly recommend.

We were very happy with the flat but want to point out that according to a man who is the Chair of the Residents Committee Crag View only has one parking space and not the two you claim. Also what looks like a new sign for Crag View is in the wrong place according to this man who was very cross with us for parking in the wrong place.
