Where to Stay in Ambleside

Booking Ambleside B&B accommodation in the town centre is a great idea since it puts you close to a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants, as well as attractions like the Armitt Museum and Stock Ghyll Force waterfall. Guesthouses in the centre offer a convenient base with everything you need within walking distance, so you can really relax.

For those looking to be closer to the water, the area near Waterhead and Lake Windermere is ideal. Here, you can find charming B&Bs and guesthouses with beautiful views of the lake. It’s a great spot for taking boat trips, enjoying watersports, or simply relaxing by the water.

If you prefer being away from the main town, consider the areas around Rydal or Grasmere. These smaller villages offer a peaceful retreat with stunning countryside views and easy access to scenic walking trails. The B&Bs in these areas provide a tranquil escape while still being just a short drive or a pleasant walk from Ambleside’s amenities.

Insider Tips for Ambleside

  • For a serene experience, visit Rydal Mount and Gardens. The former home of William Wordsworth offers peaceful gardens and stunning views of Rydal Water.
  • Explore Stock Ghyll Force, a scenic waterfall just a short walk from Ambleside town centre. The falls are particularly beautiful as the light softens and you’ll avoid the peak crowds if you aim for the later afternoon.
  • Take a leisurely boat ride on Lake Windermere from Ambleside Pier. The busiest times are midday and around sunset, but the views are stunning no matter what time you pick.
  • Check out the local Ambleside Market if you’re visiting around a Tuesday. This charming market features a fantastic variety of local produce, crafts, and unique items.
