The Ambleside Inn - The Inn Collection Group, hotel in Ambleside

Located in the pretty Lake District village of Ambleside, this 18th-century hotel is situated in the centre of this historic town, with all the amenities on your doorstep.

The inn is lovely and central. The staff were lovely and friendly. They stored my luggage prior to check-in so I was able to wander around Ambleside. They carried my luggage up to my room and brought it back down for me in the morning. The room was lovely and clean and comfortable. An opening window was a nice touch. The view was of the lovely buildings nearby. Even though it is on a bend inches road ,because it's very quiet during the night in the lake district I didn't hear a thing until my alarm went off at 8am. Breakfast was delicious, the full English was perfect. A wonderful stay and so good value for money. It was cheaper than the guest house I stayed in that didn't offer any breakfast, and the bathroom was so tiny that's at on the loo you could your feet in the shower and clean your teeth. Thank you Ambleside inn for a fantastic time.

Wateredge Inn- The Inn Collection Group, hotel in Ambleside

Wateredge Inn- The Inn Collection Group stands on the shores of Lake Windermere, a short walk from Ambleside centre.

Nice room, everything was clean and comfortable. Next to the lake was a bonus too, to chill with a drink - and its 5 min drive to ambleside center. We managed to access all what we wanted to see, including rydal caves and wray castle within a 15 min drive, and the ferry service down to bowness. Breakfast was aweaome - Would stay here again

    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.

    Beautiful town and friendly people.

    Beautiful town and friendly people. We ate lunch three times (in four days!) at Fresher's Café and really enjoyed the food (obviously). They have their own delicious home-made quiches. I am sure this has to be the friendliest place to eat in the Lake District. Special mention to Michael, who was super helpful and humorous. On the day we did not eat there, we went next door! To the Great North Pie Co and I had the best steak and ale pie I have ever had. It was served on mashed potato, with mushy peas and onion gravy.

    Perfect town to stay at if seeking a base in Lake District.

    Perfect town to stay at if seeking a base in Lake District. We didn’t have a car and honestly had no need for one as it was easy to reach by train and had plenty of local busses - including hikes that start at centre of town. Enough dining options and overall “village” feeling without it being too busy or too quiet / isolated. Traveled as a couple so cannot comment on appropriateness if a family

    Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Water Wheel. Perfect location in the middle of Ambleside, but nicely tucked away from any noise. Debbie and Paul were wonderful hosts, and just lovely people in general! The room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was lovely and the flapjacks were amazing! The attention to detail and homely touches were very much appreciated. Would highly recommend this guesthouse to others!

    Location is excellent at the top of Lake Windermere. We had a view of the lake from our room so very pleased with that. Room was adequately spacious and comfortable. Staff always very friendly and available. Over all the hotel suited and provided all we required. Dog friendly hotel. We don't have a dog but appreciated the restaurant separating those with dogs from those who don't.

    The room was larger than we expected and exceptionally clean. The continental breakfast was excellent with a huge choice of fruit and a good choice of other food. The staff were welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Our room overlooked the park opposite the hotel and had views of the mountains beyond. The hotel has an excellent location near the centre of Ambleside.

    Nice, decent size and bright room with spacious bathroom that met our expectations. In the heart of Ambleside, which is a little gem of a town. Whilst the hotel rooms are above the pub and in the town centre, there was very little noise and we had great nights sleep.
