"A great spot for 2 nights to explore Ambleside and take a hike up to the waterfall and Wansfell Pike."

8.0

Beautiful spot on the lakeside, thoughtful floor plan to slow diners privacy. Nicely decorated. Excellent outdoor seating area. Our room (70) had a gorgeous hill view.

Parking areas were not not made clear.
