to get started.

Of five weeks travelling around UK and Europe this was our favourite place to stay. The room was amazing, huge, luxurious and even had a private balcony that led to a beautiful forest walk. The badger feeding was a fantastic surprise and it is so close to amazing Lakes. Can't recommend enough.

bathroom was excellent, staff were welcoming and food was good

John

Good sized room with large private ensuite bathroom. Friendly staff. Lovely breakfast with the choice of plenty of fresh fruits. Ideal location for exploring the outstanding lakes.

Janet

United Kingdom

We stayed in the room with a woodland view and we thought it was beautiful. Very nicely decorated, lovely bathroom and we loved waking up to the view of the trees in the morning. It was an added bonus to have a little seating area outside, perfect for a cup of coffee. Also worth noting, the room has a separate room with a single bed - it's quite basic with no window so wouldn't recommend for a long stay - but perfect for a child for a couple of nights. The breakfast was fantastic, very good menu and they were happy to go off menu too. We also had dinner one night, again that was fantastic and loved the old dining room. It's a beautiful spot, albeit next to the road. Literally 2 minutes walk from Rydal lake.

Janet

United Kingdom

Friendly staff, excellent food and a relaxed couple of days in the lake district.

Terry

United Kingdom

The location is miles away from Ambleside Town, but the scene is so beautiful and made you feel the real Lake District. You can walk starting from Glen Rothay, and along with the Rydal Water. In addition, the food and ales here are rather tasty.

Yummy food, beautiful house and good location. It may be a bit far for those who don't drive, but I can see that there is bus access.
