We stayed only 1 overnight on the way down from scotland. We could see lot of people staying for visiting the lakes. The hotel is in a very nice location. They are also pet friendly and they provided us a towel and a bowl for the dog. We highly recommend both breakfast and set menù dinner which was very nice. Room was clean and bathroom looked recently renewed.

We had a fantastic 3-night stay in 'superior' room 7. The welcome was super-friendly and the breakfast excellent. Brilliant location with good parking. Our room was large, charming and had a lovely green view. The breakfast room had a lovely ambience. The four-poster bed was comfy and the bedding great quality.

My wife and I went to Ambleside for 3 days. We would normally never stay in a Guest House (prefer a pub/hotel) but opted for Rothay Garth. We were pleasantly surprised. We enjoyed our stay and the whole breakfast situation was great.Full English on order, plus extra options and friendly, helpful staff. We selected the cosy room as we were on a budget. It was totally adequate, but next time we go, we'll book a larger room.

We were checked in to a small but perfectly formed double with a spacious ensuite. The room was pristine with lovely original features and sash windows, great to leave open during the hot bank holiday. Breakfast was plentiful with lovely options, full English, smoked salmon, scrambled egg, eggs benediction a really wonderful choice.

My first stay at Rothay Garth and the friendly staff - Joanna - made the experience more delightful. Finding the location via car GPS was intriguing. It said the location was on the left when the actual address is on the right side a little further down from the GPS indication. After making couple of rounds we found it and glad there was parking was available. Overall, Ambleside is a perfect location as a base to visit the lakes district and Rothay Garth was an excellent choice.
