13. Ghyll Foot Cottage

Ambleside Town Centre, 1.1 km from Ambleside Roman Fort

"Hi, hope this helps, we found the cottage’s location is great having never been in a town one before. Great to have all the amenities to hand, we thought it had everything that one needs, just a little tired looking. Our main criticism was the lack of outdoor space for the dog, and as one of the cottage’s plus says it’s pet friendly, it is NOT. We would have considered the cottage again but only if we don’t have a dog, the likelihood of that happening is pretty slim."

Top Ambleside Roman Fort Hotel Reviews

Ambleside Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Breakfast and good location."

Wanslea Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Just spent two wonderful days in Ambleside staying with Steve and Tina at Wanslea. The Africa room was our ‘ home’ and found it spacious and comfortable. Would highly recommend a stay here. An easy walk to the town and the lake head of Windermere. Pam and Andy"

Lyndale Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"We were welcomed on arrival by the ever-helpful Alison. Our room was very clean and comfortable and Alison even helped us with some light luggage to our room which was on the top floor. There were facilities to make tea and coffee in the room and a extremely comfortable Super King-sized bed. The ensuite bathroom was clean with plenty of towels supplied. Breakfast was very well cooked with a nice variety of choice available. The location of Lyndale Guest House is really convenient to visit Ambleside and the surrounding areas. We were given a parking pass for the duration of our stay, at no extra cost, with the car park about 80 yards. Actually, we didn't need the car to visit Ambleside town centre as it was only a 10 minute stroll into the centre of town. Buses regularly pass the guest house so you can even hop on one of these if you don't fancy walking or driving. In short, Lyndale Guest House is very clean and comfortable with a great location, delicious breakfasts and a great host in Alison."

"Great place to stay for Ambleside and the Lakes. Just five minute walk into town. Small room but you expect that in the Lakes. There is parking (it is very tight!). We didn’t see any staff but they sent us comprehensive self check in info. Everything you need for a couple of nights in Ambleside. Would definitely stay here again."

"The hotel was very well located with easy access to the centre of Ambleside, our room was very comfortable and clean, the breakfast was very high quality and delicious, and our hosts were so welcoming and friendly. We’ll definitely stay there again, and happy to recommend it!"
