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 tourist hotspot which manages to retain its charm and genuine feel. Very well equipped (of course!) with a range of restaurants and cafes and pubs. A great base to walk from in all directions of the compass.

We had a great stay at The Waterhead Inn in Ambleside. Our room was lovely, very comfortable with everything you need. and was much larger than expected, with a great view over Lake Windermere (shown below). The shower was over the bath and a bit awkward to get the settings right but once up and running was nice. We had booked bed & breakfast and ate in the restaurant each evening. Food all round was excellent. Hotel was very dog friendly, with our dog allowed pretty much everywhere. Will definitely be returning.

The exterior of the hotel looked beautiful. The room was neat and tidy. The breakfast food was good quality. A really good location for walks and drives to nearby places. Very dog friendly. The pub adjoining was a friendly and well run place.
