“What strikes me is its position overlooking Lake Windermere; a proper country inn, yes, but one geared to those with dogs and kids. I appreciate the Victorian architecture, and the fact that you're a stone's throw from Ambleside itself. It feels like a particularly good base for outdoorsy families, with complimentary Prosecco on arrival-a detail that says a lot.”
