Great location. Nice room with a lake view. Plentiful breakfast. Of note were the exceptionally hard working staff, particularly those working behind the bar and on reception.
Wateredge Inn, Ambleside
We stayed at the Wateredge Inn in October for one night and really liked it. The location is perfect, right by the water, and the room was lovely with an incredibly comfortable bed. Everything felt nicely done and welcoming. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was very good too. We’d happily stay here again and definitely recommend it to others.
we loved staying at the Wateredge!
