Company info

Hello! We’re Matthew and Lucy Redman. Lucy grew up in Cumbria and as a couple we have always holidayed here. We left our corporate jobs in Somerset to live our dream of running a welcoming B&B in the Lake District.

Property info

The building is Victorian and built in the late 1800s. We are proud that it still contains many original features. All our ten bedrooms are en-suite, ranging from singles to junior suites. Crisp bed linen, a full size bath and fluffy towels mean you can rest easy after your day of hiking, cycling or sightseeing. To make the most of our stunning views, our bedrooms are on the first and second floors. The historic character of our four storey B&B is complemented by contemporary decor and modern facilities. We have unlimited WiFi and guest lounges for your enjoyment. Plus a hearty breakfast to set you up for the day. We are just a couple of minutes walk from the centre of Ambleside and it's pubs, restaurants and attractions. Leave your car behind in our private on site parking area and make the most of the many walks from our doorstep.

Neighborhood info

Set in the heart of the Lake District, Elder Grove has easy access to the town of Ambleside, with the centre being only 5 minutes walk. Ambleside is ideal for access to other parts of the Lake District such as Keswick, Windermere and Coniston.
