I loved this hotel. It is situated in a prime position overlooking Lake Windermere and a 15-20 minute walk into the centre of Ambleside. My husband and I stayed there at the beginning of October for 2 nights to celebrate our Ruby Wedding Anniversary together with our son and daughter.

We booked direct with the hotel, for a two night break, and got a great rate for dinner, bed and breakfast. I didn't see any of the the other rooms but the one we were given (No 41) was very roomy and quiet. The restaurant overlooked the Lake Windermere and on our first night we were given a table in... more

We booked this hotel based on the high tripadvisor rating and were certainly not disappointed. We got an exceptionally good rate for a suite by booking through the hotels own website. Unfortunately due to illness we had to re-arrange our booking the day before we were about to check in so we rang the hotel to amend the booking. The... more
