The breakfast was brilliant and to keep us all safe they do two sittings so they can comply with COVID rules. We cannot stress enough how these have gone the extra mile with all the COVID rules, they have all the measures without them impacting on your stay. We will be re booking for November.

United KingdomBeautiful breakfast scrambled eggs and salmon was to die for. Was all COVID safe and there were 3 sittings which was great ,
United KingdomBreakfast, fantastic choice, well cooked, excellent service. Felt safe as good Covid safety measures in place, not just given lip service, ie breakfast in 2 sittings so as not too many people in dining area at once Location fantastic, only 10 mins walk into Ambleside, so didn’t have to use car. Beautiful walks on the doorstep. However, grounds were beautiful, with plenty of places to sit and enjoy scenery...so you could just as easily stay put and relax Room was beautiful. Spotlessly clean, lovely space and gorgeous views. Bed very comfortable
United KingdomLovely place to stay just outside Ambleside. Very clean friendly and great breakfast. Will definitely stay again
