The Waterhead Inn - The Inn Collection group
Nice room (39) comfy bed, old-fashioned but beautiful armoire and dressing table. Coal effect fire, but central heating was excellent so didn't need it. Fitted bathroom with underfloor heating was really cosy. Really clean. Good breakfast and bar food was excellent . Highly recommended

Fell View
Very pleasant small property. 5 mins walk from central Ambleside. Well equipped and warm. Perhaps a bit small for a family of 4 but great for two people. Nicely decorated with thoughtful touches. Only one parking space but a car park 4 mins walk down the hill. Would recommend.

Hapimag Burnside Park Apartments
The value for money was outstanding with the off site Spa included in the price, ideal location for a walk to town for a few beers or a short walk to Brant Fell for some stunning views, will definitely be staying again.
