Liked: Staff & service
Had a good overall one night stay. Warm welcome and comfy beds after a hard day's walking. Room clean but window screwed shut so was a bit warm/stuffy. There was a fan provided in the room that helped. Good breakfast with decent choice. Evening meal was possible to have in your room (supplied in takeaway boxes collected from the bar) but pizza was burned and ribs were a bit fatty so would probably eat elsewhere with hindsight as plenty of alternatives within easy reach. No carpark was a downside and being peak season, it was a bit of a struggle to find spaces in several public carparks and was nearly £20 extra for overnight. One of the nearest carparks had a Wednesday market that sets up at 6am which nearly caught us out. Mid August so busy town, but nice and quiet in room despite central location. Overall, as long as you are aware of the potential downsides above, I would still recommend it as decent value for money.

Nice hotel for a few nights

Nice stay in the lakes with the dog. Great staff at the hotel, good breakfast and extensive drinks selection. Room was very small and pokey but otherwise ok and fairly comfortable. We were on the top floor and there is no lift, so would not be suitable for those with restricted mobility.

When visiting Ambleside and walking the Lake District, this is the place to stay. Dry comfortable rooms and amenities. The pub downstairs is stellar. Breakfast was delicious. The area is unbelievable and we had a great time wandering about.
