Neighbourhood information

Our location couldn’t be more perfect for enjoying and exploring all the Lake District has to offer. In the centre of Ambleside, we are only a short walk from a variety of great pubs, restaurants, bars and shops. Surrounded by the Lake District mountains, many of the popular walking and hiking routes are right on our doorstep. Less than 5 minutes walk out of town takes you to the nearest bus stop. From here it is only a short journey to visit some of the Lake District’s most iconic places, such as Dove Cottage and the Wordsworth Museum in Grasmere or the stunning views of Lake Windermere. We are located right next door to the famous Old Bridge House, some of our rooms even have a birds eye view of this quirky landmark. We have some of the finest views in Ambleside of the Fairfield horseshoe, this combined with our proximity to the the hub of Ambleside town centre makes The Apple Loft a must stay for the Lake District.
