Libby's Place is a lovely ground floor apartment just a five minute walk from central Ambleside with off street parking. A great space with two bedrooms and two shower rooms as well as a roll top bath ready for you to soak in after a day exploring in the Lakes. Ambleside is perfectly located in the South Lakes so if it's cafes and restaurants, beautiful views, outdoor thrills, a bit of history or just some de-stress contemplation and relaxation you're after, then look no further.
The Property:
There is one step up to the entrance hall for the apartments but Libby's Place is all on one level.
You will enter the apartment through the communal entrance hall. Once inside, you'll find the utility on the right. This is the place to store your wet and/or muddy boots and coats. You will also find the washing machine and dishwasher in here, as well as a heated drying rack, dehumidifier and shoe dryer.
At the end of the entrance hall you will find the shower room and separate toilet on the right before you reach the twin bedroom.
Turning left you will enter the open plan kitchen/lounge/dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with an electric oven and grill, gas hob, microwave oven, fridge and freezer. The lounge has a Smart TV, DVD player and a Playstation 2.
From the lounge you can access the King bedroom and the bathroom. The bathroom has a roll top bath with a hand set and a separate mains shower with a drench head.
There is also a shared area outside the entrance to the apartment with outdoor furniture where you can sit and enjoy a drink and watch the world go by.
You will have the whole property to yourself.
The Local Area:
Ambleside sits at the northern end of the Lake District's largest body of water, Windermere. So if it's water based activities you're looking for then head there for boat trips and boat hire or take your paddle board or kayak out for the day.
For those looking for adventure then take a look at Brockhole Tree Top Treks, Go Ape at Grizedale Forest or the Via Ferrata at Coniston.
Those of you wanting to walk the Lake District have chosen the right place to start with plenty of routes beginning from Ambleside.
History buffs should take a look at the ruins of a Roman fort near Borrans Park, or venture a little further afield to Sizergh Castle, Blackwell House or Wray Castle. And for a bit of family entertainment there's Zeffirerellis independent cinema or the White Platts Recreation Ground.
