A perfect location to ambelside full of places to eat and ideal fro visiting all around the lakes. The B n B is very clean, comfy, and the owners offer you lots of advice on the area, with local walks, where to eat, and pride themselves on their home made cooking for breakfast and afternoon cakes. You will not be... more

Had family over from abroad and were showing them around the UK. We unfortunately could only stay for one night in the Lake District. Tim kindly took a booking for one night only (unusual for B&Bs to do this) and took great care of us while we stayed there. Rooms were clean and well decorated; the breakfast was super even... more

Stumbled across Haven Cottage on a internet search and spoke with the owners who said no problem, but would be a 10% surcharge for 1 night stay. As only £35 per head, this was no problem at all.... more

I stayed at this B&B for two nights this week, and would like to recommend it to anyone wishing to stay in Ambleside. The B&B is just on the outskirts of Ambleside, ideally situated for walking into the town and for scenic walks. Tim & Claire the owners were extremely friendly, offering tea and cake on arrival.
