Check in was straight forward. I had asked for an early breakfast, and after a little confusion, this was sorted out and a packed lunch was prepared for me to collect. My room was very pleasant, exceptionally clean and comfortable. Everything that I needed in the en suite was there and everything worked correctly.

    It was our first visit to Ambleside and we weren’t disappointed. We had a meal at Luigi’s which was amazing. The staff were very friendly and I would definitely recommend this restaurant and I am a fussy eater. The weather was glorious so we had a few drinks in the beer garden at the Royal Oak pub. Ambleside was about a 15minute walk from our accommodation, Windermere Rooms at the Wateredge Inn.

    Great location for exploring central Lake District. Lots of interesting shops, bars - even Michelin starred restaurant which was stunning. Lake shore and beaches are lovely - east to hire SUP, canoes, kayak,motor boats.

    A very busy place even though it was not peak season. We stayed across the lake from Ambleside and it was much quieter and prettier. Be prepared to pay for parking and toilet access in all public areas in the Lake District and only a credit card is acceptable for payment.

    Ambleside is a good starting point for day trips around the lakes. There are plenty of restaurants including a Michelin restaurant...advance booking advised. There is a waterfall 20 minutes walk from the town centre. Pubs with live music most evenings. Windermere is only about 7 minutes by car or half an hour walk.

    The area itself is amazing, loads of pubs, bars and restaurants around all offering various meals, I would book in advance for most of them to avoid disappointment.

    Exceptional stay here!! We booked in for a trip to the lakes to walk and have some down time in Ambleside, you can walk into the middle of the town in 5 minutes. Very clean room, with a lovely bath and plenty of space for our bags. Big TV for watching in bed after a days wandering. Bed was super comfortable, plenty of space and very clean. Breakfast had a brilliant selection and was really tasty. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Looking forward to coming back again in the near future!

    Don't really leave reviews but I think the briery deserved one. We were greeted by gentleman on the front desk who was very welcoming from the get go. Nice quiet little bar where the bartender was very helpful regarding food arrangements as we had our dog with us, regarding the dog friendly hotel they do so much more...they accommodate for the dogs with a welcome bag and even arranged dining in the bar area so you're dog could come along. Great stay!

    Like everywhere in the Lake District, the Wateredge seems to be having issues with staff. However, the staff there were all really friendly and worked incredibly hard. The hotel and location were perfect. We plan to return to Wateredge in the near future. Thanks, for a lovely stay. Also, we took our dog and it was very dog friendly.

    Breakfast was great and plentiful. It was a very dog friendly hotel and we were able to sit outside comfortably with our dog. They had also thougtfully left treats and a dog bed for our dog in the room. The hotel was also a little out of town but within a few minutes walking distance. Staff were welcoming and helpful.

    Nice, decent size and bright room with spacious bathroom that met our expectations. In the heart of Ambleside, which is a little gem of a town. Whilst the hotel rooms are above the pub and in the town centre, there was very little noise and we had great nights sleep.

    Lovely location, very central to Ambleside and a short drive to Windermere. The property was very dog friendly, and provided towels to dry down muddy paws. Beautifully decorated rooms that were immaculate. The room was lovely and quiet, no disturbances.
