Beautiful, Lakeland House Offering Superb Facilities for The Larger Party

Located at the North end of the popular Lakeland village, Far Nook lies up a private driveway set well back from Rydal Road enjoying a super convenient location for exploring all that popular Ambleside has to offer. Far Nook has retained many of its characterful, original features including impressive cornicing and parquet flooring, a beautiful staircase, and Arts and Craft fireplaces; all seamlessly married with modern-day comfort and quality.

This really is a place to gather your friends and family and enjoy some precious time together; whether you’re celebrating a milestone birthday, anniversary or simply here for your annual family holiday, Far Nook is a wonderful venue with ample entertaining space for such a trip. There’s a good ratio of bathrooms to bedrooms, each room thoughtfully presented with excellent beds dressed with quality linens to ensure that every member of your group feels thoroughly pampered. No doubt much time will be spent in the wonderfully designed, social kitchen dining area with modern bi-fold doors opening up onto the large terrace and colourful gardens that envelop the house, perfect for a summer BBQ or evening soiree.

A five minute, level stroll brings you into bustling Ambleside where you’ll find a host of eateries, shops and bars as well as a varied selection of activities for all ages. Walks are plentiful, right from the door; enjoy a gentle amble to Rydal Water and explore the fascinating caves and on to glorious Grasmere and pick up a slice of world-famous Gingerbread to enjoy with a well earned cuppa back at base.
