I enjoyed every detail about my such great 3 nights stay here. The hotel was in a very central setting next to center of town. Again, it was near Copt Howe.

The full English breakfast was included and had lots of food. Central location next to the lakes, the centre, Ambleside, enjoyed it.

I didn't feel like leaving, had a quite comfortable experience and can't wait to go back. Perfect location, vegan breakfast, accommodating service and the staff was briliant. In my small double room there was a lovely bed that I loved. You could walk to supermarket and the shops.
