Lovely comfortable hotel.
Stayed for 2 very comfortable nights. Hotel is clean with very good staff. The room was spacious and well equipped. The bathroom really good too. Heating worked well and was easily controlled. The restaurant was very reasonably priced with good service. The breakfast was really good too. The first morning it was almost cold! But much better on the Friday morning. Parking very convenient too I would recommend this to others and would happily stay here again.

3 separate Inn properties were stayed in during our current UK visit from Canada. Each Inn was exceptional in all aspects. Highly recommend their hotels in the N/E and Lake District. .. will certainly use them again during any future vacation.. 5 star indeed!

The Waterhead Inn is in a stunning location on the shore of Lake Windermere with open views over to The Langdales. A short walk to the centre of Ambleside, with friendly, helpful staff and rare, coveted parking.

What a beautiful inn and great location (pretty much llakeside). Our room was spacious and had a lakeview. Bed was very comfortable. Very friendly staff. Food was good and on a rainy day, people just hung out in the dining area enjoying the views and conversation. Definitely recommend.
Beth, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely stay
The Inn was lovely and we enjoyed our stay, the view, the location, tand everything was great. The only thing was the "free drinks" vouchers we got, which we did not know mean that if we use them our rooms won't get cleaned the following day, so it would have been nice if the staff told us that before we used them, and we'd have simply paid for our pint. Also, no phones in the rooms.
