I had a view of highland cattle and rhododendrons- who could want more. Ate dinner the first night and again decided who could want more, so booked the lovely restaurant again the second night. The staff were all friendly and very efficient!

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.

Ambleside is a lovely place which I have been many of times.

Ambleside is a lovely place which I have been many of times. It’s more beautiful in the winter months as I feel it’s an escape from living next to the beach. The snow capped mountains, the feel of the cold when you step into somewhere with a fire feels warm and welcoming.

The cottage was in a good location to visit other parts of the Lake District. Narrow roads but not too busy. We ate in the Cottage in the evening but visited the local pub, just a short walk away, for a pre-dinner drink. We bought some wonderful local bacon from the shop. The Shop was surprisingly well stocked. The Cottage is not in Ambleside which was a good thing as there was a Beer Festival the whole weekend we were there and Town was packed. The Cottage is in a perfect location and great for walkers.

There’s so much to do in Ambleside, and I think I’ll definitely come again in another season. You can enjoy poetic walks, explore local heritage sites, or even catch a movie or a play. For the sporty ones, there’s hiking, biking, water sports, and even rock climbing. During my stay, there were a few rainy days and even Storm Amy, but none of that changed the beauty of the Lake District. I’ll surely be back — again and again.

Ambleside is a great base for outdoor activity in the Lake District with good public transport connections, plenty of shops (including specialist gear shops) and restaurants, cafes and pubs. There are also opportunities for visiting National Trust sites, local beauty spots and boat trips on Windermere.

Excellent location in the centre of Ambleside with parking .. a few minutes, if that, to restaurants and easy access to walks. The cottage has been beautifully restored to a very high standard and has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxed stay. There is a bus stop literally outside the cottage which the bus routes serving all of the local Lakes so if you don't want to drive getting around is very easy. The hosts were very helpful and quick to respond to any queries. Highly recommended property

The rooms were very clean, comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was lovely and all members of staff were extremely welcoming and friendly, everyone seemed to go out of their way for us. A dog friendly hotel which we didn't mind at all (but understand this might not be for everyone). Lovely gardens and a farm which backs onto the hotel. The bar had a good selection of drinks Free parking and good for people who like to hike.

The host went out of her way to help us with parking, they have some spaces on sste, some on the street opposite and another private car park not very far away. So this makes the guest house a very atrractive option as parking in Ambleside is scare.
