Lovely B&B - very amenable host and hostess - immaculately clean room and en-suite. Would definitely recommend No 2 Cambridge Villas. 100M from town center yet on a quiet road. Fantastic nearby restaurants and cinemas - hostess a great source of information.

I had a lovely double room on the first floor. It was very clean and smart. I think it may well have just been decorated. En suite toilet and shower. Very convenient location, right in the heart of Ambleside. Easy access to public transport. Main bus stop just round corner. Car parking on street right outside. (Free in evenings) Free... More

Happy to report my family of 4, including 2 young boys, had a great stay at 2 Cambridge Villas. Bridget and Charlie gave us a warm welcome, excellent food and helpful service. They even dried our wet things after a soaking on the Fells! A pleasure to have the option to stay in central Ambleside with children in tow.

Just returned from a 2 night stay here. Pleasant enough room with beautifully tiled en suite (if a little narrow) Warm and cosy, plenty of hot water, efficient shower, large towels. Biscuits on the bedroom tray good quality. Owners pleasant and helpful. Delicious cooked breakfasts. Car parking available ( a bonus in Ambleside) although you could possibly get blocked in... More

Great location in the center of town, close to hiking paths and around the corner from the bus stop. and an excellant breakfast. Bridgett was a wonderful host and very helpful in providing brochures on hiling trails.

We wanted to give a Mexican family a taste of the lakes but the combination of 2 Mummies,17 year old girl and 2 x13year old boys was not easy to find accommodation for. This B and B was the best value that I could find in Ambleside and it included leisure passes to Low Wood Hotel. No eating meals in... More

We spent two nights at this B&B in June when I was taking part in the Great North Swim in Lake Windermere. My husband and myself had one room and my mum and my daughter had another room, both on the top floor. Although my mum is in her 70's she managed the stairs really well, but it may be... More

I have just returned from ambleside after enjoying a short family break with my parents. The B+B location is fantastic and we enjoyed two full days walking from ambleside. The owner allowed us to have our room from midday at no extra charge. This allowed us to really maximise our stay. Our first night we found some pub grub which... More
