Accommodation overview: The Knoll, a grade II listed building, is steeped in history, being the former home of Harriet Martineau, writer, economist and benefactor to the local people of Ambleside. Having being invited to convalesce on the shores of Windermere after a serious illness, Harriet became enchanted by the beauty of Lakeland and, once recovered, set to make the area her home. Having purchased a field behind the local Methodist Chapel, Harriet designed The Knoll, employing local tradesmen to create what her friend Wordsworth described as being the wisest step of her life, for the value of the property will be doubled in ten years.

Features include: • Pet friendly • Open Fire or Woodburning Stove • Fishing near by • Golf near by • Pub near by • Easy Walking Access • Short Breaks • Cottage Sleeps 6
Accommodation overview: Dont be fooled by the rather plain exterior of this traditional mid terraced cottage, built in the 1700s as awaiting your arrival behind the front door lies a beautiful, boutique style self catering home from home, the perfect venue for your holiday in the Lakes. A hop, skip and jump from the village, with two excellent village pubs on your doorstep. Mr Harvisons, named after a much loved and respected local, is ideally placed for enjoying all that cosmopolitan Ambleside has to offer whether you are walkers, shoppers or foodies - the village has it all. And after a fun filled day on the fells or by the waters edge, return to the contemporary luxury of Mr Harvisons with comfortable lounge areas, sumptuous bedrooms ensuring a good nights rest and individually chosen, interesting pieces of artwork and accessories. The open plan living area is ideal for a casual and social dinner although with so many great places to eat in Ambleside, Lucys, The Glass House and The Log House to name but three, we wonder whether the super facilities on offer here will actually be used to their full advantage? A small terrace to the rear of the cottage is just the spot for an aperitif before dinner or for taking in a breath of fresh Lakeland air when our weather will allow whilst cooler evenings will no doubt be spent gathered around the wood burning stove either in the elegant lounge or cosy snug, recalling the days events and planning the next.
