About The Location
The Falls is a highly sought-after area of Ambleside due to the peaceful surroundings and the easy 500m walk into the town centre. The market town of Ambleside sits at the North end of Lake Windermere, a short stroll from the cruise boats. The village is hugely popular with visitors due to the cinemas, tennis courts, pitch and putt / crazy golf and very large outdoor children's play area in Rothay Park. The scenery is also spectacular as are the choice of walks from the town, including Jenkins Crag (730ft) and Loughrigg Fell (1099ft).
The town is well-serviced by the local bus service with links to Windermere, Kendal, Grasmere, Coniston and Keswick. Ambleside has
Well worth a visit is Stagshaw Garden, a woodland garden with lovely floral displays set on a steep hillside overlooking Lake Windermere. From the garden walks lead through Skelghyll Woods to the fells beyond. There are strolls along the shore of Lake Windermere for the less energetic, boat trips down the lake and back, or maybe just potter around the many outdoor shops, craft shops and galleries before a good pub lunch.
