Great place to stay in Ambleside. Very homely and within a few minutes walk from the centre of town. Would recommend for anyone looking to explore the area.

Overall a lovely week in the Lake District- despite the weather. Bed was rather firm and would have benefited from a mattress topper but otherwise an excellent choice in a prime location.
