About this property

3 bedroom accommodation in Ambleside

  • Part of one of Ambleside’s iconic buildings, St Anne’s Church, at the base of ’The Struggle’ and part of the village’s oldest and prettiest areas.. Ground Floor:

    Living/dining room: 32" Freeview TV, DVD Player

    Kitchen: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Washer Dryer

    First Floor:

    Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed

    Bedroom 2: Single (3ft) Bed

    Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Toilet

    Second Floor:

    Bedroom 3: 2 x Single (3ft) Beds

    Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Toilet. Gas central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. . Shared lawned gardens surrounding property. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking.. Tower House is so named, as the cottage is the front part of the Grade II listed church with the church tower. Located in part of the conservation area known as Chapel Hill and How Head, there has been a church on the site since 1550, but the current structure dates from 1812 when it took on a more Gothic style. Surrounded by the village’s oldest houses, Tower House benefits from being in a quiet location surrounded by shared gardens, while only a short walk away from the many shops and restaurants Ambleside has to offer.



    The cottage is comfortably furnished, carefully mixing modern luxuries while retaining original features, from the solid studded door to the arched church windows. Set over three floors, the property is spacious and quirky. The twin room on the top floor will capture children’s imagination as they look out of their bedroom window over the castellated roof to the fells.



    Ambleside sits on the northerly end of England’s longest lake, Windermere, so why not enjoy a cruise, or if you are feeling a bit more energetic, why not hire a row boat. Just down the road is the Armitt Museum and Library, which houses a large number of exquisite botanical watercolours donated by the artist herself, Beatrix Potter. Across the road from here is the Bridge House, a tiny two-room, two-storey house dating from the 17th century, and once home to eight people! Beach 20 miles. Shop 250 yards, pub and restaurant 150 yards.

Holiday with family

Overall a nice stay. Could do with a bit of an upgrade but overall what you see online is what you get. Single bed very uncomfortable. Fans would be good. Very big hill to walk up but overall a nice stay in a quirky, unique building.

Lovely cosy cottage right in the centre of things.

Lovely cosy cottage right in the centre of things. Spotlessly clean with everything you could need in a home from home. Only slight issue is parking. Private parking to the property is made via a public parking area which was often clogged with cars obstructing the already narrow entrance. Would still recommend this property.

Situated up a hill with tight parking, however an unusual property. Would have benefitted from WiFi and a few basics within the property like enough washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, more toilet rolls, recycling facilities - just a consideration for future. Lovely walks straight outside and in surrounding area.

The accommodation was spacious enough for us three adults.

The accommodation was spacious enough for us three adults. Being a conversion of an old building it creaked quite a bit - even when other parts of the building were in use. Central heating was a bit odd in that it was either off or on with no easy way to control it (i.e. timer and thermostat). Certainly agree with others that the parking area needs a bit of sorting out, but as long you are careful and the adjacent spaces are used properly then it was not a major issue. Had a mixed week weather-wise, so it was nice to have a comfortable place to stay on the odd day when going out walking was not possible. It was close enough to town to walk in (but Peggy Hill is quite steep), so shopping, eating out, and a trip to the cinema were all possible without driving.

Fantastic home very central to all that Ambleside has to offer.

Fantastic home very central to all that Ambleside has to offer. On a steep slope to work off the calories from the beers in the two quaint pubs less than 50 yards away. Car access could have been easier due to lots of parked cars in car park just outside. No spare bulbs and a couple of lamps were not working. Would rebook if we return to the area as location was so convenient.

The house is lovely and in an excellent location, just minutes from the centre of Ambleside -shops, pubs, bus stops, restaurants. The house is comfortable, large rooms, bedrooms and bathroom and the kitchen is mostly well equipped (strangely only had 4 cups for 5 guests). The website says there are lawns surrounding the property. There aren't. The grass surrounding the graves outside has not been cut this summer and it was impossible to sit anywhere. The website says there is a patio. Guests in Number 5 rather aggressively stopped us having access to this, saying it was there private property-not according to the website. There is no wifi, which we thought was behind the times really. The place does need a good clean -too many cobwebs in corners and the floor needed mopping. One last negative - there are no recycling facilities - no bins to recycle paper, tins and bottles. This was particularly frustrating as the recycling van arrived on Thursday. We had to take items to the recycling plant on the way out of Ambleside. This needs urgent rectification as it is unacceptable not to recycle in today's world.

Great location

Lovely place, quirky staying in the converted tower, and good amount of room. Only challenge is the parking as limited and spaces are tight. It is dog friendly, which was great for us, but outside area is open and not gate from the church yard into the road so not ideal for dogs to have a run in the garden area before heading off for the day. But perfect location to wonder into town for food in the evening.

The Tower house is lovely and cosy, well-equipped and very clean. It has great views and is very close to the centre of Ambleside, shops and pubs (though bear in mind that the way back is a steep uphill! But we thought it was worth it!). My only two recommendations would be to provide a slightly bigger duvet for the double bed (it's currently the exact width of the bed, so once you're under it it's too small), and to leave a small soap and one or two teabags for when guests arrive and haven't yet had time to shop - it's nice to be able to wash your hands and have a cup of tea before going to do the shopping. Other than that everything was brilliant, and we all had a lovely time!

Lovely cottage.

Lovely cottage. Basic inside but has all the nessecities. Close to Ambleside and all shops. The children loved the twin room with access to the lovely views from the top. The double bed frame was a bit too short with my husband being 6.4ft ! He had difficulty getting comfy ! It would of benefited from WiFi . The iron leaked .. so was tricky if you needed to use it! it sure if the owners are aware of this. It is on a steep bank which wasn’t a problem for us. Overall we enjoyed our stay especially with the fabulous weather!
