Ambleside is a good location. We enjoyed Rydal Mount, a boat cruise and a visit to the waterfall.
The public transport network is great, not taking the car was not a problem. We travelled on the bus between Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside with ease.
I will definitely visit again, but next time I will research more of the local walks. There is loads to see, but I would like to know where I was heading and where to walk!

We selected Ambleside as it is central for touring the Lake District. It is a pleasant Town with plenty of shops & restaurants. It also has the biggest garden centre I can ever remeber being in. It was pretty busy even outside of a public or school holiday time so booking restaurants is usually necessary.

It was our first visit to Ambleside and we weren’t disappointed. We had a meal at Luigi’s which was amazing. The staff were very friendly and I would definitely recommend this restaurant and I am a fussy eater.
The weather was glorious so we had a few drinks in the beer garden at the Royal Oak pub.
Ambleside was about a 15minute walk from our accommodation, Windermere Rooms at the Wateredge Inn.

Great location for exploring central Lake District.
Great location for exploring central Lake District. Lots of interesting shops, bars - even Michelin starred restaurant which was stunning. Lake shore and beaches are lovely - east to hire SUP, canoes, kayak,motor boats.

A very busy place even though it was not peak season.

We stayed across the lake from Ambleside and it was much quieter and prettier.
Be prepared to pay for parking and toilet access in all public areas in the Lake District and only a credit card is acceptable for payment.
Fantastic little cottage right in the centre of all local amenities. Lots of pubs / restaurants on your doorstep. Everywhere was super dog friendly. Ambleside was a great base for us to explore the Lake District.
the cottage was beautifully decorated, lovely and cosy, with a smart tv in both the lounge and bedroom. The hosts were great, brilliant communication and very friendly. Couldn’t recommend more!
The room was larger than we expected and exceptionally clean. The continental breakfast was excellent with a huge choice of fruit and a good choice of other food. The staff were welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Our room overlooked the park opposite the hotel and had views of the mountains beyond. The hotel has an excellent location near the centre of Ambleside.
It's a dog friendly hotel, with welcoming staff and I felt comfortable as a solo traveller. A great location for walking to Elterwater and next door to Chester's by the River. We were upgraded to a twin room and my dog got to have a sausage for breakfast. It was good to be able to have a meal in The Talbot Bar on the evening without leaving the hotel.
Like everywhere in the Lake District, the Wateredge seems to be having issues with staff. However, the staff there were all really friendly and worked incredibly hard. The hotel and location were perfect. We plan to return to Wateredge in the near future. Thanks, for a lovely stay.
Also, we took our dog and it was very dog friendly.
It is on the edge of Ambleside so out of the bustle and noise somewhat, but still in easy walking distance to shops. Breakfast is ample, with lots of choices. The house is a lovely older building, with views over fields of grazing sheep. Rooms were comfortable, with tea making facilities. The owners are friendly and helpful.
Beautiful location and amazing views across the lake. Room was clean and comfortable with a good shower. We had a dog friendly room which was perfect. 20 minute walk into Ambleside which we enjoyed. We eat at Lucy on a plate which was fantastic (need to book) and again was dog friendly. Staff were lovely would stay again.
Fantastic location, lovely and clean hotel (including room), lovely decorations. We went for Christmas, very festive and not to forget the yummy breakfast which was included. We have told our family to visit and we will be back. Our pooch also loved the yummy treats they sell at the bar.
Lovely hotel with an amazing view of Windermere. Had a dog friendly lake view room which was spotlessly clean and the bed was really comfy. The view from the room was perfect.
The staff were really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend it.
The location was excellent. Walking distance to all the attractions and bus stops in Ambleside. Plus walking distance to all the restaurants and shops.
The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked.
Easy to find. Great location with parking. Good to walk into Ambleside for restaurants in the evening. Great starting point for exploring the area. Very clean and everything you would need available!
The room was fantastic and the staff really helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay again at the Ambleside Inn and will recommend it to family and friends. Loved my stay
Fantastic central location to Ambleside. Lots of local walks on the doorstep. The room was stunning, would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!
