We're repeat guests at this B&B and stay here whenever we visit Ambleside. It's in an excellent position and has enough car parking for all the rooms. We were in Room 7 which was a lovely large room with a 4 poster bed facing the main road. An earlier post mentioned road noise but can honestly say we didn't notice... More

it is a nice familly run b&b, however try to avoid staying in the rooms facing main road. Traffic does not stop. Twins bed rooms are very small, beds are not even single beds and very uncomfortable. Make sure you ask to change your towels - if you put them on the floor it does not mean anything, you will... More

I was fortunate enough to have this B&B chosen for me by the person who was organising our bike trip to Grizedale, and what a great surprise, as I did no research into the hotel. From arriving in this quaint little cumbrian village, to entering the B&B everything was excellent. The room very clean, bed comfortable and TV and Shower... More

Given the nature of the area there are a lot of B and Bs to choose from in the area - we found the "Rothay Garth" to be the size of some small hotels we have stayed in, certainly not your average B...

Friendly and informative. Breakfast was great even catering well for vegetarians. Accomodated our very late check in on a Friday. Clean rooms and very helpful - couldn't ask for much more! More

We have just a wonderful weekend in Ambleside, and stopped at the Rothay Garth. The 'average' grading may look a little harsh but it is based on value for money. The Rothay is a lovely big B and B with comfortable rooms and serves a top notch breakfast. It is family run and they are all lovely, so whats the... More

I stayed for 2 nights with work colleagues whilst doing a charity challenge event. The hotel is in a great spot within walking distance of Ambleside and with plenty of car parking for guests. The welcome we recieved was very friendly and informative. We arranged for a cold breakfast set out at 6.30 to enable us to set off early,... More
