By night, there’s plenty to do – cosy traditional pubs, special award-winning restaurants, a jazz club and 2 independent cinemas.
A nice walk from the village centre is Waterhead Pier, on the northern shores of Lake Windermere where you can hire a rowing boat, enjoy a drink or a meal overlooking the lake at the Water’s Edge Inn, or take an elegant lake cruise to Bowness or Lakeside - a great way to explore car-free.
Windermere Lake Cruises depart regularly, and also offer evening cruises.
Ambleside is full of history.
The tiny 'Bridge House' is one of the most photographed buildings in the area; sat on a bridge in the middle of the village.
There are also the remains of a Roman fort, Galava.
One of William Wordsworth's former family homes can be visited nearby at Rydal Mount & Gardens.
His Grasmere home, Dove Cottage, is also open to the public and only a short drive away on the A591.
Over the spectacular Kirkstone Pass and you arrive in beautiful Ullswater.
