Loved by Rothay House Hotel guests
"Genuinely had car parking on site unlike other bed and breakfast accommodation we have used in Ambleside who advertised having parking."
"Breakfast was amazing with plenty of choice, bed was very comfortable, everywhere was spotless and just a 5 min walk into town."
"Had the bonus of a car park with free parking which was a massive bonus as its very hard to park in and around Ambleside."

“In my opinion, this is a gem in the Lake District, with its upside-down design creating uniquely laid-out rooms, and the homemade breakfasts, customized to your liking, are a real treat; plus, the property's location puts you within walking distance of the town center. I especially appreciate the non-smoking environment and the availability of EV charging. It's a spot that stands out for its personalized warmth.”
