The stay was great, the hotel has a beautiful quiet country style, you feel like you are at home, we enjoyed the breakfast which was simple and delicious croissants, yogurt and fresh fruits, the staff were very helpful and kind in dealing with us and meeting our needs, the service in the room was excellent and the cleaning was daily, the view was very beautiful, and the location of the hotel is close to the center, I loved everything about the hotel as it is my second stay with them, thanks to all the staff for the high-class and friendly treatment, and special thanks to Mr. Trevor.

The B&B is a great location, just short walk to the city center. The room was comfortable and clean. The breakfast is great (with lots of fruits), I really enjoyed. They advise that there is not hot food, but I really miss not having scramble egg.
There is parking on the hotel, but they charge extra £12 per day, which is a lot. I preferred to park in a 100 meters public parking that charges you 9.60 for all day stay. But it is free from 8pm-8am. If you are going to use the car during the day, worth parking there. If you have mobility difficulties, check before if you are going to stay in the ground level rooms, as some rooms are on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator. For me it was fine and not a problem.

The location is very good: it's not by the lake, BUT it is close to the starting point of many hiking trails and very close to the bus stop. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, my train was delayed twice by more than 3 hours in total and I had to use the late check-in option, and that happened without any trouble. The building is very old (in a good sense, try asking the hosts about its history) and very well maintained. The breakfast was nice, wish they had scrambled eggs though. They mention it here, but once again - this building does not have a lift.

The lodge was in the ideal spot for the bus station and all ameanities. The staff were very helpful and cheerful ,breakfast was lovely lots of cold meats and fruit, yogurt. Toaster coffee machine .The lodge is a 15minute walk from the falls which is wort seeing.Also 20 minute walk to Ambleside pier were you can get a ferry to all destinations on windermere.The bus stop is 4 minute walk away were you can get the hop on hop off bus to all destinations and reasonabily priced.There are plenty of booklets in the foyer of the lodge telling you all information on the area were the walks are and also within walking distance there is Amblesides roman fort remains and trail .Would definately go again.
I couldnt write anything bad about the lodge everything was fine

Very convenient location, next to restaurants and town center, but also very near the lake. Our room was very suitable to our family of 4. They also have parking space and this is a big advantage if you are coming by car. It is not so easy to find places to park in the street during weekends and high season. The breakfast was amazing, with all kind of fruits and pastries. Service was excellent and their recommendations for activities in the area were very useful.
They do the service of your room, but you have to expressly indicate it.

Great all round. Ideally located, quiet. Bonus that it has it's own car park, with electric charger. Bus station 2 mins walk.
A lot of stairs. I had requested a ground floor room for One of our party who uses a walking stick. Not a show stopper that he was on 1st floor. I was In Room 16, it would have been nice to have a proper chair to sit on rather that the stool for the dressing table.

Location was great very close to the bus stop only 1 min walk. The rooms size was good. The beds were comfortable. The toilets were newly renovated and warm. The shower has good pressure. The provided kettle, tea coffee and milk in the room. We stayed in top floor and the views were amazing of the lakes. We had heavy luggage’s and they helped us with them up and down the stairs. Thanks a lot. Breakfast was continental breakfast with many varieties and options. Different bread types jams butter fruits yogurt cheeses boiled egg pan cakes tea and coffee.
Everything was good thank you

Location superb although not ideal for people with mobility issues as all uphill into the village centre. Room really spacious, quiet, clean etc. Couldn't ask for anything else with the continental breakfast. Wide range of breads, cereals, fruits, yoghurts, cheese, cooked meats, juices, teas and coffees
I could have done with a degree in IT to figure out the TV remote, too many options. Fire doors at the top of each flight of stairs extremely heavy to open.

Staff were friendly and very accommodating when we asked to arrange for a slightly earlier breakfast. The room was great. Shower was powerful. Everything was clean and we were pleasantly surprised as the photos online did not do the room justice. The plastic tray at the door for dirty boots was just what we needed too. Would definitely stay again.
No issues. We were very happy with our stay. It would be nice to have the option to return and bring my dog in future but unfortunately the accommodation is not dog friendly.

Family room was lovely - very spacious and warm - liked that the kids were in a separate corner behind a curtain The door that led to the carpark was very handy for getting stuff to the room without hassle Beds are comfortable and we liked the seating area Smart TVs were great for a cosy night in - as were the abundant cushions on the beds! Staff are super friendly Breakfast buffet was plentiful and varied Powerful shower with plenty of hot water Brilliant location within steps of the shops and pubs of Ambleside
