Room with a view
Stayed in room 4. The view over Lake Windermere was lovely. A brilliant location, just a short walk into Ambleside. Although no restaurant on site, we visited the Wateredge Inn for our evening meal and the food was very good. Totally relaxing short break - wished we could have stayed longer.
