If in this green and pleasant land, You would pause a while, Consider Riverside my friend, For comfort and rare style. And if on Loughrigg terrace path, You pause to survey the scene, Remember all who’ve been before, And who they might have been. For to this green and pleasant land, The wealthy come to stay, And those who grew... more

We can only echo what others have said. This is a really excellent package of great setting, facilities, breakfast and above all warmth and helpfulness of the hosts. Lovely touches include locally produced toiletries, delicious home made bread (orange, apricot & almond, etc) and top quality breakfast ingredients. We followed Dave's walk recommendations and found it very helpful that he... more

Dave & Brenda have created a lovely B&B. Although things such as the new sparkling bathroom (with a strong hot shower), comfy bed, lovely location (pretty, quiet and only a pleasant stroll from the restaurants of Ambleside), sound-proof rooms and pleasant decor make for a nice stay, it's the hospitality and attention to detail shown by Dave & Brenda that... more

We only wish we could have stayed longer than two nights, because this B&B is exceptional in all ways. David and Brenda are warm and welcoming from start to finish. The cozy sitting room is filled with helpful reading, as well as the glow of candles every evening. The beautifully-furnished rooms are clean and comfortable, and the full baths are... more

Just arrived home from our fourth visit. As always Brenda and Dave did everything to make our stay really special. The room was spotless, breakfasts excellent and the hotel is ideally located for visiting the Lakes. We would have no hesitation in recommending The Riverside Hotel to any visitor - we just know you will enjoy your stay. more

What a fantastic B&B. Well placed just on the edge of Ambleside but close enough to walk into town. The owners are brilliant and made us feel really welcome. Would stay again without a doubt more

Just back from one of our regular visits to this excellent B&B. Outstanding accommodation and hosts - Brenda and Dave - who are very helpful with guidance on day's out, walks in the area, places to eat etc. The location is excellent and a good base for exploring the lakes with walks from the door if you just want to... more

We have recently returned from our 4th short break at The Riverside in as many years.On this occasion we shared the experience with our son and daughter-in-law -They'll be back! Brenda & David were once again the perfect hosts providing a level of service that never disappoints from the time you arrive to the moment you leave. The cleanliness of... more
