Hi

I realise this is probably asked a lot and I did do a quick search. Does anyone have any reccomendations for nice places to stay in Ambleside? Something along the lines of a cottage or similar for two people.

Never been to the Lakes before so pretty in the dark really. Doesn’t have to be bike specific as I won’t be taking the bike.

Or even somewhere similar in the Lakes that is a bit less well known or cheaper could be helpful.

Any replies appreciated.

this looks lovely!

we stayed in Appletree cottage at Easter. lovely inside although not much from outside. A bit tight for us with 2 kids and teh bikes but would be perfect for 2

But fully booked for ever!
I have literally just booked a couple of rooms here.

I’ll know what it’s like by next Thursday.

Cheers guys all of those suggestions are spot-on. Will fire off some emails tomorrow morning and check availability etc.

Years ago Me and the Ex booked into the Churchill. We got pissed with all the local kids, spent all night dancing, then had filthy sex till 11am, missed breakfast, and repeated the next night.

Probably not helpful, but everytime I see an “Ambleside accommodation” thread it makes me smile…

Duggan, what dates are you looking at? If September, then email me (in profile). I may have just what you’re after!

Drunken Duck just outside of Ambleside is fantastic. Took the mrs there a few weeks ago and thought it was great, really good restaurant and pub on site with its own brewery.

Look at the Heart of the Lakes website-we got a lovely well equiped & clean flat for a week on the site of the old Kirkstone foot Hotel-They have built a complex of holiday homes on the site-literally 3 minutes walk to the centre of Ambleside.
