Nice clean, comfortable hotel with helpful and curtious staff. Breakfast was great.
Wateredge Inn, Ambleside
We stayed at the Wateredge Inn in October for one night and really liked it. The location is perfect, right by the water, and the room was lovely with an incredibly comfortable bed. Everything felt nicely done and welcoming. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was very good too. We’d happily stay here again and definitely recommend it to others.
The room included parking and breakfast. Staff were helpful and friendly. Good location for Ambleside and getting the boats to other parts of the lake. Lovely clean room, good bed and bedding. Breakfast was hot and cold buffet and very good as were the evening meals.
we loved staying at the Wateredge!
cozy room/great food, ambiance
Very friendly especially the dogs
great location right on Lake Windemere
and very clean
We loved everything about our stay at the Wateredge Inn. The place is beautifully decorated, the room was quiet and cozy, parking was so easy and the food was just delicious. We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our vacation. We will definitely be back in the future.
From start to finish excellent friendly staff, great food and such a pleasure to have a clean and tidy room and wanted for nothing. Great safe car parking looking at next trip already and won't be long thanks to all
Really lovely stay, location excellent, really nice room and breakfast lovely. Food from the bar menu ok, but pricey for what you get, prawn sandwhich was a let down. Would be even better if you could order from the table via app. Will definately go again and recommend.
Great location right by the lake. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the check-in area was also the same place as the bar, which meant that it took a long time to get checked in as you had to wait in line with people who were ordering drinks. Otherwise the stay was nice.
Superb building in a superb location!!
All the staff during our 3 night stay were very friendly throughout.
Great rooms, great food and great beers on tap!!
A very relaxing and stress free stay
