    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.

    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. Pitch & putt really good or mini golf for families. plenty of walks around and further if you desire. regular bus service to other areas of the lakes.

    This hotel was very well run. Breakfast excellent, room excellent spotlessly clean, Staff in all areas of the hotel were very helpful friendly and professional. I loved the Spa facilities they were lovely and totally relaxing and again very clean. My husband travels worldwide so can be quite critical of hotels as he's been in the best and the worst of them and he thought ambleside salutation hotel was great and he made no negative comments ...and that's saying something.

    Fantastic little cottage right in the centre of all local amenities. Lots of pubs / restaurants on your doorstep. Everywhere was super dog friendly. Ambleside was a great base for us to explore the Lake District. the cottage was beautifully decorated, lovely and cosy, with a smart tv in both the lounge and bedroom. The hosts were great, brilliant communication and very friendly. Couldn’t recommend more!

    This is a lovely Hotel, in its own grounds, set just off the A591 south of Ambleside. It is tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean, with ample lounges/seating areas, with a pleasant outdoor patio area. The staff are exceptional, as is the breakfast and evening meals, and I would recommend trying the tasting menu (an extra supplement) if you get the chance.

    It's a dog friendly hotel, with welcoming staff and I felt comfortable as a solo traveller. A great location for walking to Elterwater and next door to Chester's by the River. We were upgraded to a twin room and my dog got to have a sausage for breakfast. It was good to be able to have a meal in The Talbot Bar on the evening without leaving the hotel.

    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.

    It is on the edge of Ambleside so out of the bustle and noise somewhat, but still in easy walking distance to shops. Breakfast is ample, with lots of choices. The house is a lovely older building, with views over fields of grazing sheep. Rooms were comfortable, with tea making facilities. The owners are friendly and helpful.

    The hotel is in a great position and you could be lucky and get a great view. Our room was a little compact and at the back but we could see the hills behind the hotel. I hadn't realised it was dog friendly, and would not have booked if i had, however the dogs were not allowed in the dining room which was a relief.

    We couldn't fault this lovely accommodation. The decor was beautiful, gentle colours, soothing with quality fittings. Breakfast was not only delicious but perfectly presented. The hosts could not have been more helpful. We absolutely loved it here and with the background of the Lake District in spring - perfect!

    The listing for the room we booked was inaccurate about the room size and bedding, but the staff at the hotel did solve the problem, and we ended up in the room we thought we had booked. The restaurant was really good.
