Chapel How

"This unique and historical Lake District character property forms part of a converted Grade II listed chapel, in the peaceful conservation area. Dating back to 1550, this romantic property retains its period features; arched church windows, striking exposed beams and a feature church pew in the dining area. You'll find arched windows, oak staircase and gothic-style doors, all beautifully renovated. Three decadent bedroom suites, including the truly special 'Belfry' bedroom finish off this unique place. The unique combination of original church architecture and contemporary luxury really has to be experienced to be fully appreciated. Nestled in Ambleside's historic conservation area, this luxurious cottage is just far enough from the crowds to be blissfully peaceful and quiet, but the within walking distance of several excellent Ambleside restaurants and traditional Lakeland pubs, shops, cafes and even a cinema and jazz club. A few minutes from the village is the shore of Lake Windermere at Waterhead, with lakeshore pubs and cafes, stunning lake views and of course the opportunity for a cruise on Lake Windermere - a great way to explore Bowness or Lakeside without taking your car. Ambleside is a great base for your day trips throughout the must-see areas of the Lake District. Head north past Rydal Water to historic Grasmere; a world-famous Lake District village surrounded by the poet William Wordsworth's favourite landscapes. Visit his former home at Dove Cottage,and explore Beatrix Potter's farmhouse at Hill Top."
