We stayed two nights for our friends wedding and Steve was a brilliant host, the place was perfectly located for us and had everything we needed, and we took advantage of his restaurant recommendations too which were both extremely good!!!(Zeffirellis and Ishaahs). The breakfasts each morning were fantastic and great quality!!! Our stay was excellent, Steve’s a top man….

The car park is some way away from the house. The bedroom we had was small and the shower room was quite remarkable in that it was such a small space but was perfectly adequate.

Hillsdale was a joy and delight, in an excellent location with great off Road parking. The BnB was spotlessly clean, rooms were homely and cosy all topped off with a great breakfast! Steve and Caz were the best hosts and couldn’t do enough for you. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderfully relaxed and welcoming stay at Hillside Ambleside.

Steve was incredibly friendly and had a fantastic sense of humour even after the mighty Liverpool beat his beloved West Ham 5–2.

Breakfast was delicious, beautifully presented, and a perfect start to the day.

We’ll definitely be staying again next time we’re in Ambleside.

Up the Hammers!! ⚒️

I had a lovely stay at Hillsdale - Steve and Caz were fantastic hosts who couldn't be more helpful, the room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was a great way to get the day started.

It's located really close to all the local amenities, there's great walks on the doorstep and the bus stop is a couple of minutes walk if you want to go further.

Exceptional! Steve and Caz very welcoming

Our stay exceeded our expectations. Steve and Caz made you feel like you were staying with close friends. The attention to detail is everywhere in thier property. Our room was immaculate. The bed was so comfy we had the best sleep in a long time. Breakfast was perfect and a good choice. We truly couldn't have asked for any more. We highly recommend staying at Hillsdale. You even have a secure car parking bay only a very short walk away. We got a parking disc and was able to park outside for an hour whilst we unloaded on arrival and loaded up again on leaving. We left the car in the car park and used the buses to go everywhere. We can't wait to return. Thank you for making our two day stay so memorable.
Kind regards,
Glynis and Graham
