Latest reviews | Events in Ambleside
Ambleside, one of the jewels of the Lakes, is set in the centre of the Lake
District at the head of Lake Windermere. Blessed with beautiful scenery,
this bustling market town provides everything a visitor could want from the
numerous shops offering wares for walkers and climbers, to the many drinking
and eating establishments. Ambleside is rich with history and heritage.
Originally containing a Roman fort (Fort Galava, the remains of which can be
seen in Borran's field, Waterhead), Ambleside has always been an important
area of the Lake District. Buildings such as the 17th century Bridge House,
one of the smallest houses in Britain, jostle with the Ambleside Museum
(home to many Beatrix Potter artefacts) to hold the attention of visitors
and offer an interesting insight into local life. Nearby Stock Ghyll Force,
a beautiful waterfall, provides another stunning natural attraction.An ideal
base for a walking holiday, Ambleside has easy access to the surrounding
fells and breathtaking mountains. For the less energetic, there are strolls
along the shore, boat trips on the lake and a fantastic collection of
interesting visitor attractions. Shoppers are well catered for also with an
abundance of outdoor retail outlets, craft shops and galleries.
