I loved the kind staff who were ready to help at any time and made you feel at home. It was immaculately clean and the breakfast was amazing!! I’ve not seen a bakery selection like that before for how cheap it was! The eggs benedict was cooked perfect and everything was so tidy and hygienic. Bed was super comfy and huge! Bathroom had a jacuzzi bath and huge shower and two sinks. Very modern and stylish.

Roberta

The staff were so helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. It was my granddaughter birthday and she was treated so well and they decorated room for her

My wife and I booked this hotel on a whim. It's a ten minute walk to the centre of Ambleside and has its own, though tight, parking for guests. On arrival we were met by the owners, who were very friendly. Allocated room number 1 on the first floor. Though very small for a double,, the decor was beautiful, with an oriental theme. It did have a nice compact on-suite. All the towels, bed linen, toiletries etc were branded with the hotel name and were very high quality. The breakfasting restaurant also had the same quality and the breakfast menu was outstanding with a good choice of cereals, fruits and juices. Fantastic selection of cooked breakfasts available and the waitresses were more than helpful. There was a large patio area at the front of the hotel where you could sit with a drink from the bar while watching the koi carp in the small pond.

Jim

Property information

The Fisherbeck, Ambleside is an 18 bedroom property situated in the one of the most beautiful areas of the English Lake District and overlooking Loughrigg Fell and the Langdale Pikes in the distance. Private parking is available. A warm welcome awaits; individually designed bedrooms beckon; comfortable lounges for sipping local beers, glass of wine or barista coffee and a hearty breakfast are our aim. We are dedicated to sourcing as much local fare as we can with award winning Fell Bred sausages, eggs direct from the farm, bacon from a village just along the road and Lancashire black pudding. Gin, Vodka, Whisky & Beers made right here in Cumbria are all available in our bar. We are ideally situated for walks to the Lake and to the centre of Ambleside for a wide array of shops & restaurants.

Neighbourhood information

Ambleside is the perfect location for a visit to the English Lake District with fell walks & mountain bike trails right from the front door. Lake Windermere is just a few minutes stroll from our property for a wide range of water sports and a vast number of other outdoor activities are close by, including an indoor climbing wall. For the less active Ambleside is centrally located for easy access to a number of National Trust or English Heritage properties. Shops and restaurants abound in walking distance so there is no need to move the car once parked in our private car park.
