The hotel is in a fab position being only a short walk to the centre of town and having its own car park. On our arrival we received a very warm and friendly welcome. The room was spotlessly clean and very spacious and the bed very comfy. Breakfast in the morning was really good, plenty of choice and very tasty. Overall excellent value for money, I would definitely stay here again if visiting Ambleside.
