About Holmeshead Farm
Out along Skelwith Fold, the fields and fells around Ambleside give Holmeshead Farm its setting, a working countryside base rather than a town-centre hotel. The surrounding Cumbrian scenery makes it a natural stop for anyone keen to get out walking, with the Lake District's paths and views close at hand.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and are suited to families, with breakfast included each morning and drinks available in the room. Guests can make use of the garden and outdoor seating or head to the picnic area, and reception is staffed around the clock. Free on-site parking makes arriving with boots, bikes or watersports gear straightforward.
There's no restaurant on site, but pubs, restaurants and eateries can be found nearby, along with entertainment and watersports for those wanting more than country walking. It's a straightforward, quiet base for exploring the area around Ambleside, with the garden views and open countryside doing most of the work.
