    breakfast variety
    shower temperature

    i was quite disapointed at the lack of variety in the breakfast choices, it was a bit too simple for my standards. also, the showers fluctuated in temperature, which is simply unacceptable. i suppose being treated like everyone else is just their 'norm. ' of course, the expected upgrade never happened, so here we are. almost gave a good review, but just couldn’t.

    My honest journey to loving (or hating) this

    Janet's warm welcoming service and homemade cakes throughout our stay made everything feel special. The room was cozy, beautifully presented, and had excellent amenities like a kitchenette. Perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration!

    The parking access was somewhat tricky, which added a bit of stress during arrival. I found the shower temperature fluctuated, impacting my enjoyment during those refreshing moments.

    delicious sausages
    warm welcome
    breathtaking views
    limited cake options
    minor nitpick

    The sausages were a glorious highlight at breakfast, and the homemade cakes kept us coming back for more! The warm welcome from Janet made us feel right at home, and the views from our room were simply breathtaking.

    Honestly, everything shined bright, but we wouldn't mind seeing a few more cake options during our next visit. it's hard to nitpick when the stay exceeded our expectations!

    spacious rooms
    poor parking

    Thoughtfully designed and spacious rooms, outdoor seating with beautiful views, in-house laundry facilities

    Shower temperature inconsistencies are simply unacceptable!!! Challenging parking access can add unwanted stress during your arrival. The absence of a communal guest lounge area really limits options for relaxation and interaction!!!

    hospitality experience
    parking access

    comfortable stay , but minor parking issues

    The breakfast selection was expansive, with delicious homemade sausages that were a highlight. The warm hospitality from Janet and her team made us feel truly valued throughout our stay. Our room offered stunning views of the mountains, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration.

    We found navigating the parking area a bit challenging during check-in.

    The under floor heating in the en-suite was a real treat. The wine selection could be larger.

    homemade cakes
    beautiful room
    tight schedule

    We had such a lovely time during our stay, enjoying homemade cakes that were always available and a beautifully decorated king double room with a cozy shower. The garden was perfect for relaxing, with comfy seating and a lovely view to take in. Honestly, we wish we could’ve stayed longer but our schedule was tight—definitely plan for some time to unwind here! 😊

    A Truly Delightful Experience

    I had an amazing stay in Ambleside! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with homemade cakes and a glass of wine, which set the perfect tone for my trip. My room was beautifully decorated, clean, and had a lovely view of the garden and nearby fells. Breakfast was fantastic, with plenty of options to choose from, including delicious homemade goodies for my walks. The only slight difficulty was navigating the stairs with luggage, but it was worth it for such a lovely place.
