We liked everything, but mostly the staff service. Each of the staff members seemed to make our stay comfortable and happy by anticipating our needs and solving any little problem we had. The morning breakfast was excellent. The Hotel is situated in a quiet but lovely center, and the entrance is easy (we had some thought when booking because the picture on the website showed many steps leading to the entrance, but when we arrived, we realized that the entrance is on the side and very convenient). Unfortunately, we didn't have time to spend in the spa but we checked it and it seems excellent.

We were absolutely stunned to find out that the room service put our hairy coo plush toy to bed when we were away, tucked in nice and cozy, as if it was asleep! :-) This was possibly the nicest and cutest experience with any hotel we've had so far!! Thank you! <3

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.

wow what a stay! we took our 2 dogs for 2 night. The staff were absolutely amazing and the dogs were spoilt rotten. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. They were amazing! We got a garden view room so that we could let the dogs out easily in the morning and during the night. Dogs are allowed off lead in the gardens but not many people do to be honest! The room was exceptionally clean, bed was comfy and the dogs even had a little goody bag! We ate in the hotel for 1 of the nights and for breakfast and the food was phenomenal! Would thoroughly recommend you eat here one night if you can! The website says dogs can only eat in the bar but the staff put us in the garden lounge where we could sample both the bar and alacarte menu. The location of the hotel is perfect. 5 min drive from Ambleside and about 10 mins from Windermere. You could walk it too but it was raining heavily when we went! Most walks are also a short drive away. As a young couple the location was perfect for us!

I had a fantastic stay at my landlord's property in the UK. The room was spacious and impeccably clean. Our landlord was incredibly patient and provided us with great assistance, ensuring a wonderful experience during our stay. Overall, it's a great value accommodation, and I'll definitely choose to stay here again when my family visits the UK in the future!

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.
