Tucked away on a peaceful street in Ambleside, 2 Cambridge Villas offers a welcoming stay within a characterful Victorian townhouse built from traditional Lakeland stone. Ambleside sits at the heart of the Lake District National Park, framed by surrounding fells and with Lake Windermere close by, making it an ideal setting for a relaxing break.

The property offers four individually designed rooms, each with its own character and layout. Guests can choose from double, twin or family rooms, all thoughtfully arranged to provide comfort and a restful atmosphere.

Every room is en-suite and designed with relaxation in mind. Comfortable beds dressed with Egyptian cotton bedding, central heating, soft Egyptian cotton towels, toiletries, a television and free WiFi are all included. Extra touches such as a hospitality tray with teas, coffees, hot chocolate and biscuits, wine and water glasses with fresh water in a glass bottle and homemade cakes or biscuits help create a homely and welcoming feel.

The family room is suitable for children aged seven and over. Check-in is available between 3pm and 9pm, with guests asked to confirm their arrival time in advance. A complimentary parking space is provided, allowing you to settle in and explore without worrying about your car.

Breakfast is a highlight of the stay, with a choice of a hearty Cumbrian cooked breakfast or a lighter option, alongside a generous self-serve selection. Guests can enjoy cereals, juices, fresh fruit or berry salad, compote, porridge, croissants, toast and preserves. Breakfast is normally served between 8.15am and 9am, and most dietary needs can be catered for, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options, provided requirements are shared ahead of arrival.

Ingredients are sourced locally whenever possible, supporting nearby producers such as Garside’s Butchers for sausages, bacon and black pudding, Todhills Farm for free-range eggs, Town End Dairy for milk and yogurts, and local suppliers for fresh fruit and vegetables.

With walking, running and cycling routes starting right from the doorstep, 2 Cambridge Villas is perfectly placed for exploring the surrounding fells. Popular routes such as Loughrigg, Wansfell, the Fairfield Horseshoe and Red Screes are all easily accessible on foot, meaning you can park up on arrival and enjoy the area without needing to drive for the rest of your stay.
