Ambleside is a gorgeous quaint little town.

Ambleside is a gorgeous quaint little town. Lots of things to do and shops to visit, extremely dog friendly, we wish we had taken ours with us. The food at the Old Stamp House was amazing, the highlight of our trip. However, we did have a Sunday roast at the Flying Fleece and we couldn't fault that either. Lots of great pubs and sights to see, I would highly recommend a trip to Ambleside.

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.

very well looked after, modern and clean rooms, bathroom was excellent - jacuzzi bath wasn’t expected! Extremely comfortable, breakfast fantastic, very dog friendly - our dog was treated like a VIP! lovely setting, beautiful gardens, easy parking with big car parks, walking distance to Ambleside (30-40 mins) and Windermere (20 mins maybe). Didn’t try the bar but looked great.

The hotel has been fully refurbished and remodelled since we last stayed here in 2019. It was good before but is great now. The decor and layout downstairs is excellent. Food was excellent quality and good value. Our room was a good size, very well equipped and quiet. The hotel has a great location by the lake and is a 20 minute walk from the centre of Ambleside.
