The area
Chapel Stile is a small village about 5 miles north west of Ambleside and boasts the key elements for a village – a shop, pub, café and church. You may not need to go any further although if you want to explore other local villages and towns Ambleside, Hawkshead, Grasmere, Coniston and Windermere are only a few miles away. The shop is well stocked with essentials, local farm produce and all sorts of odds and ends and the café, Brambles, is located above it. The excellent pub, Wainwright’s Inn, offers a warm welcome with its roaring fires, tasty food and wide range of beer on tap.
The village of Elterwater is approximately 15 minutes’ walk where there is another first class pub – The Brittania Inn, which serves food and a café.
The breath taking Langdale Valley runs from Ambleside to the imposing Langdale Pikes (peaks) and is flanked by Crinkle Crags and Bowfell Pike. It offers great walking and mountain biking at both high and low levels. Lots of walks can be started from the door of the cottage or are a short car or bus ride away; the Ambleside Rambler bus runs past the cottage. The impressive waterfall, Dungeon Ghyll, can be reached by a hike from Stickle Ghyll car park.
