In the Lake District, Ambleside Central is a tall Victorian building, offering room-only accommodations with period features over three floors. Please bare in mind that there is no elevator/elevator. The stylish rooms are decorated with rich, colorful fabrics and modern art. Some rooms feature an original fireplace, and all rooms offer tea and coffee facilities and en-suite or private modern bathrooms. We however do not serve breakfast. The guest house is just 2 minutes' walk from Ambleside Bus Station and is next to The Lily Bar which serves great bar food with an impressive wine list. There are a number of restaurants, cafes and pubs just a short walk away - which can get noisy on weekends. Ambleside Central Guest House is just 20 minutes' walk from famous Lake Windermere, where a range of boating activities are available. Windermere town center and railway station can be reached in 15 minutes, and Grasmere is 10 minutes away. Free off-site parking is available around a 7-minute walk away. -

Property info

Ambleside Central Guest House offers a 3 Star Room Only accommodation in Ambleside, The Lake District. There are numerous hotels and Bed and Breakfast accommodations in Ambleside, but what makes us different is the unique combination between luxury and low cost, and we have even more to offer. Our central location and the room only concept gives you the opportunity to enjoy a great night out and come back to your cosy room anytime and in just a few minutes. We are in a vibrant and busy part of town, in the vicinity of bars and restaurants and on the main road: weekends and holiday seasons can be busy for us and the neighbourhood. If you seek the peaceful idyll of rural Lake District, Ambleside Central is not the place for you. As we are self-serve accommodation with electronic key pads to open codes so please make sure to add a valid Mobile Number to the booking so you can receive the codes. Please note that Ambleside Central is a tall, Victorian building which, like most buildings in Ambleside, has no lift and is not best suited to those with mobility issues.
