Top Armitt Museum and Library Hotel Reviews
Waterhead Rooms & Suites - Parking and Light Breakfast
8/10 Good
"Great place to stay for Ambleside and the Lakes. Just five minute walk into town. Small room but you expect that in the Lakes. There is parking (it is very tight!). We didn’t see any staff but they sent us comprehensive self check in info. Everything you need for a couple of nights in Ambleside. Would definitely stay here again."
Crow How Country Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"A very nice place to stay. Wonderful property, wonderful breakfast,very helpful owners."
Hillsdale in Ambleside

Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful hotel in a great location at the top of the town. Pool and spa facilities were great. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend."

Elder Grove
10/10 Excellent
"What a lovely venue. I booked the small, 1-bed room (number 7) for an impromptu weekend of walking in the lakes in Aug 2026. The B&B itself is beautiful and well positioned for easy access to the delightful town of Ambleside. It was the perfect base for 2 days of walking (Wansfell Pike, Scaffel Pike, Bowfell, Crinkle Crags etc). The hotel is in excellent condition and really well furnished. I managed to grab breakfast on Sunday morning and it was delicious (really generous portions and perfectly cooked). I didn't have a need to speak with the on-site team that much but when I did they were friendly and helpful. The whole booking experience was pain free from start to finish and I would definitely recommend to others. My one minor negative comment relates to the en-suite shower in bedroom 7. The ceiling is quite low which could be a problem for anyone over 6' tall. This really is a very minor point though. If you're looking for the perfect base for a delightful break in the Lakes, then I would definitely recommend Elder Grove"
Compston House B&B - Adults Only
10/10 Excellent
"I loved my stay here. The location is perfect. Ambleside is very walkable so everything was close. The room had windows with beautiful views of the town, and I really appreciated there being a full length mirror in there. It was quiet and comfortable. Meg and John take great care of their guests. I was given a parking disc that could be used at a few different car parks in the area. Breakfast was absolutely lovely with a lot of choices. I’m so pleased with my choice to stay here!"
Ambleside Central
10/10 Excellent
"Great location, good views from room"
Ambleside Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"This is a great central location, when look for the place the name is slightly different to the title on Hotel.com. Ambleside House."
