Ambleside is the Lakeland town at the head of Windermere, built almost entirely of local stone and slate.
In Ambleside, stone and slate houses, cottages and guest houses are packed around the town centre, with Victorian villas on the hillsides. The most common roof coverings here are Westmorland green, Burlington and Welsh slate on the older properties, with concrete tiles on newer homes.
Ambleside catches the weather rolling in off the Lakeland fells and Morecambe Bay, so heavy rain and strong winds find any weak point in a slate roof quickly.
Ambleside lies within the Lake District National Park and has a conservation area. Planning is handled by Westmorland and Furness Council, or the Lake District National Park Authority for homes inside the National Park, and we’ll always check what applies to your home before we quote.
