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

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.

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.

Very nice modern property in the heart of Ambleside. Dedicated parking right outside the door. We came in the winter but I imagine the parking space is worth its weight in gold in the summer. Comfortable and warm. Dog friendly with a great park for walking them 2 minutes away. Owners communicated quickly when we needed them. Full cooking facilities should you desire. Looks better than the photos.
