We enjoyed our stay from start to finish. We loved our room especially the powerful shower. Upon arrival we had dinner in the restaurant and headed straight to the spa. The spa has amazing facilities, we especially enjoyed the outdoor heated swimming pool. The breakfast was delicious and had on offer a wide variety of different foods. The location of the hotel was superb, it was in the town center but we felt like we really were away from everything. Overall, it was a very relaxing break-away in the Lakes.

Joe did an outstanding job going beyond looking for a better room to cater to my elderly mother’s needs. He was very please and professional and He will go along way in life with those qualities. The breakfast was outstanding as was the lady who had a smile and chat each morning while serving .

The room was clean, comfortable and quiet (considering it was a busy pub). The breakfasts were generous and delicious and served on hot plates. We met Grace on our second morning when she served us breakfast, she was delightful and friendly and made us feel very welcome, thank you.

Ambleside is a honey trap, necessary to help with the millions of tourists visiting the lake district just like keswick, windermere etc. There is peace and quiet to be found quite easily outside but do not expect it in the town. Ambleside is now busy 12 months of the year. Traffic is a pain and parking is in short supply. There are good eating places - not all at tourist prices - and more shops selling outdoor gear than you can shake a stick at

Ambleside is a fantastic location for accessing some great walks and also good bus service up to the higher walks beyond Grasmere. Ambleside has plenty of restaurants covering all tastes, including the brilliant vegetarian Zefferelli's and Fellini's, Julie's pantry, and Thai restaurant. Also has two independent cinemas!

Ambleside is a beautiful place and we cannot wait to visit again. There are plenty of independent shops and eating places. We ate at Dodds which was really good and would definitely recommend. Walking around Ambleside on an evening felt extremely safe. Also traffic appeared to flow very well, although it is worth noting that there is a one way system in place.

There is plenty to see in Ambleside with an excellent range of shops and places to eat. There was lots of live music over the weekend. We saw a fantastic jazz band at Zeffireli's. Our biggest disappointment was Hill Top - make sure you book in advance otherwise they won't let you park in the carpark and visit the property.

A lovely picturesque cottage on a cute terrace in the middle of Ambleside with parking right outside. Lots of space for everyone, a bathroom in every room (plus other communal bathrooms). Lovely well tended gardens front and rear with nice furniture. It has a drying room too for avid walkers. There's loads of space for a lot of people to share, and still not be on top of each other.

It’s very close to Ambleside centre with parking for one car. The kitchen has everything you need and milk, tea and coffee plus dishwasher tabs are very useful. The apartment is very warm with a lovely log burner. Plenty of coat rails and shoe rack for wet walking gear.
