Ambleside Central Guest House offers a 3 Star Room Only accommodation in Ambleside, The Lake District. There are numerous hotels and Bed and Breakfast accommodations in Ambleside, but what makes us different is the unique combination between luxury and low cost, and we have even more to offer. Our central location and the room only concept gives you the opportunity to enjoy a great night out and come back to your cosy room anytime and in just a few minutes. Please note that Ambleside Central is a tall, Victorian building which, like most buildings in Ambleside, has no lift and is not best suited to those with mobility issues. We are in a vibrant and busy part of town, in the vicinity of bars and restaurants and on the main road: weekends and holiday seasons can be busy for us and the neighbourhood. If you seek the peaceful idyll of rural Lake District, Ambleside Central is not the place for you.
