Description
Welcome to 8 1/2 Church Street, one of the oldest properties in Ambleside, approximately 500 years old and Grade II listed.
Ideal for a family or a group of friends seeking an idyllic getaway, this charming property is pet-friendly and boasts a private hot tub, private off-road parking, and traditional features such as exposed beams throughout.
The house is a clever conversion of two cottages into one spacious holiday home, giving it a unique layout and character.
Step inside and make your way into the open-plan living and dining area, the heart of the home, where you can settle into an armchair or unwind on the sofa.
A separate snug provides an additional space to sit back and chill.
If you're feeling hungry, the fully-fitted kitchen offers an electric oven and gas hob to help you prepare delicious meals.
Serve up your creation at the dining table and share laughter and memories with your loved ones.
If the weather permits, take your dinner outside and dine alfresco.
After eating, change into your swimwear and head to the private hot tub to enjoy a fantastic soak as the sun sets.
As night falls, sip a drink in the sunroom and stargaze, then warm up by the open fire before choosing a film or series to watch together on the Smart TV.
When it’s time to rest, climb either staircase to reach the well-appointed bedrooms: two king-size rooms and a twin, all offering some rest.
In the morning, wake up with a refreshing shower or a long soak in the bath before heading out to explore.
A shop and a pub are just a short walk away for your essentials or a meal out.
In Ambleside, enjoy a walk to the dramatic Stock Ghyll Force waterfall, explore fascinating exhibits at the Armitt Library & Museum Centre, or challenge your group to a round at White Platts Miniature Golf.
Head to Windermere for scenic lake cruises, paddleboarding or kayaking, or simply stroll along the shores.
Visit the Lake District National Park to discover scenic trails, hire bikes for a countryside adventure, or stay late and seek out perfect stargazing spots.

What guests are saying
Absolutely super accommodation.
Great location. Very comfortable. Very well equipped. Nice to have outdoor space to relax in right in the center of Ambleside, and with car parking.
We have just returned from a lovely week with our 3 teenage children.
The house was very well equipped & the beds very comfy. We loved being able to walk around Ambleside without using the car & had a dip in the hot tub every day. Having a car park space was a huge bonus although it takes some precision reversing as the space is very tight. We got the hang of it after a few days. We did lots of walks, pottery painting, steam train ride & paddle boarding to nearby lakes. All in all, it was a great house in a great location.
Beautiful cottage and an excellent location.
Garden and hot tub were lovely. Because it is an old property the bedrooms are a little slanted and so are the beds in 2 of the rooms in particular. This meant we unfortunately didn’t get the best sleep each night- but other people may not be affected by this. The one minor thing is that the property has no basics- no hand soap upstairs, no washing up liquid etc. You get a starter pack from Sykes/Lakelovers but thats it. It doesn’t advertise that it has one but generally nowadays you find those things. Also there is no clothes airer to dry clothes indoors- somethings can’t be tumble dried and when raining there was nowhere to dry clothes indoors. As I said, not big issues just a consideration.
