Description
Norwood House is a standout holiday home set right in the heart of Ambleside, offering generous space and a refined feel that suits large families or groups keen to make the most of the Lake District.
Spread across three floors, the house balances classic character with practical comfort, making it a reliable base for both sociable gatherings and quieter moments to yourself.
At the centre of the home is a substantial kitchen designed for feeding a full house without fuss.
It comes fully equipped with an electric oven, gas hob, fridge/freezer, wine chiller, washing machine, tumble dryer, kettle, and toaster, so everything from big breakfasts to celebratory dinners is easily handled.
Meals can be enjoyed together in the elegant dining room, while the main sitting room provides a relaxed space to unwind in the evenings, complete with a Smart TV and electric fire.
For a bit of friendly competition, the lower-ground-floor games room is a welcome bonus, particularly on rainy afternoons.
Sleeping arrangements are thoughtfully laid out across eight well-presented bedrooms, including a mix of king-size, double, family, and single rooms.
Many benefit from en-suite facilities, offering welcome privacy, while additional shower rooms help keep mornings running smoothly when the house is full.
Outside, the enclosed rear patio is ideal for outdoor dining or a quiet drink at the end of the day.
Off-road parking for several cars adds real convenience, especially in such a central location.
WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen, and towels are all included, alongside useful family extras such as two highchairs and two travel cots.
Two well-behaved dogs are also welcome, meaning no one has to be left behind.
Ambleside itself is packed with independent shops, cafés, and traditional pubs, all easily explored on foot.
Scenic walks begin practically from the doorstep, while nearby Grasmere and Windermere offer lakeside strolls, boat trips, and well-regarded places to eat.
A little further afield, Keswick rewards a visit with its lively market town atmosphere and dramatic surrounding scenery within the Lake District National Park.
Norwood House is a confident choice for a memorable Lake District stay, combining space, location, and a sense of occasion in one impressive package.

What guests are saying
We found the accommodation brilliant for our needs as 8 single people.
We all had our own toilet in our rooms. The equipment provided in kitchen was good, we didn’t need it but great if you wanted to. We had a problem with a key being accidentally locked in a bathroom and the emergency call number was very effective and was sorted in a few hours. The free parking was a bonus just a 5 minute walk down the road plus the permit to park outside the house to unload was helpful. Position of house ideal for getting the bus and walk into town
Absolutely perfect through out.
Location and House was ideal for our needs. Would definitely rent this property again.
Great house with spacious rooms, large lounge and large dining room each with space for the whole party, lovely bedrooms.
Norwood house is perfectly situated in the centre of Ambleside with the bus terminus, park, children's playground, cinema, cafes and bars all within 5 minutes walk. We were a 3 generation party including toddlers and 2 dogs and we all enjoyed our stay in Norwood House (and the grandchildren were excited to discover it's connection to Beatrix Potter)
