Positive: The location in Ambleside was excellent; right in the village but secluded so noise was minimal. The facilities were excellent including pool, spa, reading and sun rooms and access to walking paths. Breakfast was very good with great service. Car parking on site. We had a ground floor room which was a bonus given the luggage we had.
Negative: Unfortunately, the room did have an odour, especially when we first entered, not strong but noticeable. Believe it to be stale cigarette smoke. The bathroom also had an odour, reminiscent of "wet dog". Could very well be, given pets are welcome at the hotel, which we were aware of.
Summary: Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, would return to stay there without hesitation and thoroughly recommend

Positive: The breakfast was fantastic, the bed large, cosy and comfy and the staff were friendly and very helpful. Ample onsite parking was a bonus, and the location was perfect for pootling around Ambleside with all the main amenities (restaurants, pubs, groceries, shops etc) within walking distance close by. There is a lovely park to walk the dog in just down the road and it's a great hub to branch out to visit the different lakes. Tea and biscuits in the drawing room, relaxing on the large comfy sofas, was home from home, and this B&B is VERY dog friendly. We will definitely stay again when heading back to the lakes.
Negative: What's not to like?? With hindsight, we would probably have chosen a different room with our small dog/my gammy leg, as the in-room spiral staircase to the bedroom was a bit inconvenient for us, but for the able bodied and non-doggie types it would be the quirky and fun experience I originally thought it would be lol!! So, there's really not much to complain about!
Summary: Perfect location, lovely people and fab brekkie, will stay again!
