Description
This well appointed and fully refurbished cottage apartment is named after the delightful mallard ducks that have made Stepping Stones their home and often come up from the river to greet us. Mallards is found up stone steps and through a section of gardens to your front door. Enter into a characterful open plan living area with kitchen / dining room. A favourite with many long standing guests; Mallards sitting room boasts an exposed Lakeland stone wall, original wooden window shutters and an open fire for cooler evenings. The upgraded kitchen has all you need, complete with an electric oven with halogen hob, microwave, fridge and freezer and dishwasher. Mallards sleeps two to four guests with children from 6 years old.
The two cosy bedrooms provide stunning views over the stepping stones towards Wansfell and the grazing sheep in the fields beyond. The modern bathroom is ideal for long soaks after a hard day on the fells. Outside the gardens are beautiful with garden furniture to enjoy al-fresco living. Please note dogs are welcome at the cottage by special arrangement including a deep clean at the end of your stay.
Location location, Mallards is all about location, the setting next to the river Rothay is peaceful and isolated yet close enough to walk to Ambleside and enjoy its array of quality pubs and restaurants. Avid walkers can try all levels of walks straight from the doorstep.
