Bakestones - Central Location, Free Integral Private Parking
Part of the Brathay Cottages Collection, Bakestones is situated right in the heart of Ambleside village, just a stones throw from the shops and eateries and with many walks straight from the door. Built in the 17th century Bakestones was once the premises of the oldest grocer shop in England and retains many of its original features including the original Baker`s oven.
With a secure garage, Bakestones is one of the few holiday cottages in the centre of the village to boast on site parking.
Bakestones sleeps four across 3 bedrooms, a large King and two single rooms, one single with a vanity basin and one single with a feel of a secret room up stairs in the eaves. Bakestones has a well equipped kitchen diner at the heart of the cottage, 2 steps lead down to the generous living room with vaulted ceilings and original exposed oak beams. Bakestones is a split level property, steps up to to the ground floor entrance, with most of the accommodation on the first floor level.
Bakestones has a well equipped Kitchen diner at the heart of the cottage, with steps leading down to the generous living room with vaulted ceilings and exposed oak beams. We welcome one dog per stay.
