Joanna was really helpful remembered both our names. We arrived early and were shown the room at 9am as we had planned to arrive early and go for a walk and was hoping the room would be ready when we got back so that was a bonus that didn't need...

The staff were excellent and could not have been anymore helpful. Great value for money with a large choice at breakfast even dried out our boots in the boiler room
Antony

The location is great, close to the centre of Ambleside on one side and walks by the river on the other. The room was spotlessly clean, and the staff were excellent throughout. The breakfast was very good in a large room.
