Stayed at this place over the easter break - it is very nicely located - a short walk away - very close to the town centre and close of places to eat. The room I stayed in Rydal was a bit small - and would easily be crammed with stuff if a couple stayed there , hardly any walking space,... More

Was well looked after again by Alan and Sue from start to finish. We took the Windermere suite for the 2nd time which has a large four poster bed, so if you are north of 6' tall you will have no problem with stretching out in bed without banging your feet or head. Room has full tea and coffee facilities,... More

If you want a very nice family-run B&B then the Broadview is your best bet==we were 2 couples who shared 2 rooms with adjoining bathroom on the 3rd floor. It was very nice but rather close quarters if you were strangers !!! Wonderful hosts with a super breakfast=would definitely stay again

On first look this B&B isn't up to much, being on the main road into Ambleside and opposite the Hays Garden Centre. Parking is 200m away, but with the bonus of a parking pass valid all over the south lakes so the minor inconvenience of parking up the road is outweighed by the saving on car parking during your stay...

We stayed in the Broadview for 4 nights in October and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very friendly and helpful owner provided us with a parking pass for the nearby pay & display carpark which was so handy as we were doing loads of walking and didn't really need to use our car. There was an amazing choice of breakfast food from... More

Stayed 2 nights in early August. A very cosy guest house indeed with lots of attention to detail in terms of the service you receive and extras in the room. We stayed in the Windermere suite which hosted a 4 poster bed, en-suite facilities, small wardrobe and dresser. Tea and coffee facilities are all there and there's a very useful... More

My friend and I stayed for 3 nights, last week. We found Alan the owner, to be friendly and helpful. We were impressed with the variety of breakfast options that were available. The full English breakfast was good, as was the Greek yoghurt and fresh fruit. He provides a packed lunch on request which was a very good idea, saving... More

This lovely B & B is just on the edge of Ambleside opposite the garden centre. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with a cool little mini fridge for wine etc...They even leave wine glasses out. Alan and Sue are wonderful hosts and went above and beyond to help. Highly recommended.

I stayed in the Grasmere room (twin beds, top floor) with a friend for a long weekend in the Lake District and considered this place to be one of the highlights of the trip. Our room was small, but well-laid out. The decoration was charming without being cutesy. The soaps and shampoos provided were all-natural products handmade by the owners--these... More
