Finest Retreats | Otters Holt

Escape to Otters Holt, nestled in the heart of the popular Lake District town of Ambleside. Enjoy a peaceful retreat for up to four guests in a traditional two-bedroom cosy cottage, well placed to enjoy the picturesque landscapes and country walks of England’s largest national park, straight from your doorstep!

Upon returning from a day of exploration, there is ample space available for storing muddy boots and damp coats in case the weather isn't favourable. Head into the living area, a lovely spacious and bright room full of character with exposed timbers, comfortable sofas, smart TV and Wi-Fi included during your stay. Enjoy a meal around the dining table, and cook up a feast in the modern, fully fitted kitchen with dishwasher and underfloor heating.

Otters Holt can sleep up to four across two well-presented bedrooms; one double bedroom and a second twin room with family bathroom.

With numerous nearby attractions to explore, ensuring you have plenty of activities to enjoy, you can embark on a boat journey on Windermere Lake or take a brief stroll from the town center of Ambleside to reach Stock Ghyll Force, an impressive 70-foot waterfall.

Parking is included to the side of the cottage for up to one vehicle.

I had the most perfect at Otters Holt! The cottage was just described and what I had looking for as a cosy December pre- Christmas get away... extra touches there being a Christmas tree and decorations up to make you at home and a bit festive. I knew that some of Ambleside would be closed for the season, but still plenty to do in the area and some stunning walks straight from the cottages front door! I couldn't recommend the areacottage more! Also, Lucy's on a Plate (at the end of the road) had been recommended by two friends prior to going, and it was fabulous!

Location was excellent, having parking in the town centre was brilliant. Clean, warm and comfortable. Everything you would need. Draining board didn't drain. Wardrobe door in main bedroom is a bit tricky. Shower should do with a warning on not to turn it passed number 2, the water is scalding hot. A few light bulbs out. But that&#39s being really picky.

We loved Otters Holt and felt comfortable and at home there. It was a great base for exploring the area and the parking space was especially helpful. We found the front door a bit hard to open and the lounge door. May need lubricant or new lock barrel. One bedside light not working.
