With period accommodation and contemporary holiday cottages to choose from, there are many ways to make a pet-friendly, self-catering break your own in this canine paradise.

A Lake District holiday is a real treat for your dog. You and your walking buddy will love hiking the hills that rise behind the town. Wander lakeside trails that lead out of Ambleside into the heart of this romantic and literary landscape. Stroll the pretty stone-walled paths along Stock Ghyll beck or discover the breathtaking waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force that soars and crashes a short walk from the town. Just a mile from the centre of Ambleside you’ll find the Waterhead Pier, where you can begin your exploration of the Lake District’s most famous body of water. Take out a boat or simply watch the world go by. Or take the ferry to Wray Castle, which stands imposingly on the banks of Lake Windermere just 3 miles away from town. Give your pup a taste of the high life with a stay in one of our Ambleside dog-friendly holiday cottages.
