Stayed here twice now and both times have been excellent. The B&B is really tastefully decorated, warm and comforting. The owners Dave & Angie are lovely people and go out their way to come and welcome you. The rooms are warm, which is exactly what you need after a day out in the mountains and they're very comfortable. Will be... More

The five of us stayed for 3 nights along with a set of grandparents. We used the room for 4 and the room for 3, and both were perfectly clean, well set out and nicely decorated. There was a lovely warm welcome, and our hosts were very (but not too) attentive, and full of good ideas and tips on places... More

My wife and I have stayed twice, once in January and again in March. We are particular about cleanliness and location. The room was spotless and everything worked although the TV could have been a little larger. We did alot of quite tough hill walking and Dave and his wife were particularly knowledgable about the local area including the shops... More

Thank you both so much for a fantastic stay last week. You were both so warm and friendly and provided a wonderful retreat from walking in the wintery mountains! Your knowledge of what to do and where to go makes you ideal hosts and your guest house is perfectly placed for adventures around the town and wider region. Many thanks

Booked a one night stay based on trip advisor and they were spot on. Compston Road is right in the centre of Ambleside which makes this B&B ideal if you want to explore the local shops, pubs and restaurants and not worry about the car. Our room was finished to a very high standard with lovely bed linen and co-ordinated... More

We have just spent a night at Claremont House. I expected a very warm welcome after reading the reviews on TA. We were welcomed by the hostess with a hello & were escorted to our room - that was it really no more no less. We had a small double at the back of the house. The room was very... More
