It’s not a bad place to stay. The only thing is it wasn’t worth £620 for 2 nights. If it was less price, it would be ok

The hotel is in a great location and we had a Windermere room behind hotel across the road. Car parking was a bonus. Breakfast good.
Had lunch there with family who came to us and it was very disappointing which was a shame.

Perfect Location & as we were looking for..
Stayed in a lovely room behind the main buildings, small block of four rooms and extremely comfortable..
Staff worked hard during an extremely busy weekend but nothing was too much trouble..
Would definitely stay there again…👍

Lovely night away
Absolutely beautiful place, very clean and perfect location. Perfect night away. Only slight downer was that I could hear someone in the room next door snoring all night but that’s not the hotels fault. I searched for hours for somewhere to take our dog and he was made very welcome and happy here.

Location magnificent and iseal for a lakes holiday. Restaurant bar good. Dinner menu very average. Staff very friendly. Complimentary breakfast poor and cooked items almost cold. Very limited if you are vegetarian.
Parking is a major issue. If you can get a space hang on to it. Would be inadequate even iif exclusive to residents but also at a charge open to non-residents.
Overall impression disappointing but could easily be brilliant.

Great location but overall an average hotel
Great location, close to all the major attractions. However the noise from the rain on the roof was very loud, making it difficult to sleep. Breakfast was average.

It was at the head of the Lake, making the scenery beautiful. The large lawn where we could dine whilst looking over the lake. This was so peaceful! Can't think of anything we disliked.

Great base for a short stay. Great service.
Parking onsite which is good as it’s expensive in Ambleside. Clean and well equipped rooms but small so not really suitable for a long stay. Staff are great, very helpful. Good breakfast choice. Gets very busy for food in the evening but plenty of nearby options.
