The Parsonage at Sweden How in Ambleside is a wonderful house for larger groups to enjoy the delights of the Lakes. It is a substantial property situated high on a hill overlooking the town from which guests can step into some the loveliest scenery in the area.  It was built in the 1880s as the original parsonage or rectory for Ambleside and later divided into separate dwellings.  The Parsonage comprises about half of the original building and has 7 double/twin bedrooms sleeping up to 14 guests.

The Parsonage is ideally situated to access all of the attractions in the Lake District National Park.  Bowness on Windermere is less than 6 miles by road, or you could take a ferry down the lake from nearby Waterhead.  Close by you have Grasmere and Hawkshead and Keswick is approximately 17 miles away.
