Great location just a 5-10 minute walk to the centre of town and also to the lake. Near parking and the view from our window over sheep in the paddock was very relaxing.

Loved this charming, quirky hotel - the owners were very nice and I enjoyed Matt's witty banter. The outside of the house was just as beautiful as the view we had from our room. The room was very comfortable: large bed, nice bathroom with all the amenities we were hoping for. In addition, we enjoyed a delicious home cooked breakfast in the morning. The hotel is located in the center of Ambleside, and we started our hike from there - no need to take the car (which we could conveniently leave in the parking).

The breakfast was very good. The location was excellent, in the town, but it was quiet. It was ideal for hiking, with plenty of choices where to go. In the accommodation itself, the bathroom was good with a decent shower, the bed was comfortable, there was tea and coffee in the room and the host was friendly and helpful. I hope to stay there next year.
