The Gables Guest House

My second visit to this wonderful roomy guest house in the last six months,this time a single room,though the single bed appeared to be a small double,but left plenty of space,with good sized bathroom en-suite with bath and shower,good water pressure! Situated on the south side of city centre,opposite park providing bowling green ,Tennis Courts and pitch and putt golf,also short walk to country park approximately 100 metres away. Breakfast provided to order,and wonderful staff,cannot wait to return.

Our third visit to the gambles in Ambleside. As always the staff are friendly and approachable, but professional. The rooms are comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities, and comfy beds. Location is great and plenty of eateries for dinner in the evening. Would definitely go again .

Lovely hotel brilliant host lovely room Only niggle was breakfast could be a little hotter as was served like warm both times Also the wardrobe in the room could have been smaller or the tv on a arm to move out so you could see it sat in the two chairs

Very nice and friendly guest house on the edge of Ambleside village. Good starting point for hikes in the Lake District. Drying room for shoes and clothes. Books, maps and local event information available. Friendly atmosphere. Very tasty breakfast included.

Our room was nice and comfortable. The staff lovely and friendly. Breakfast was excellent and freshly cooked to order. The house was warm and cosy and we felt relaxed in the evening after our long walks, watching TV or reading in our room. The location is superb and even though our room was on the ground floor next to the main road it was quiet. The only negative was the bathroom was freezing cold and could do with an extractor fan as the walls, ceiling and floor got soaking wet after a shower. However the shower was lovely and hot and the bathroom nice and clean. We would definitely stay in this room/ guesthouse again.

A wonderful weekends stay. The room was bright and clean. The host Rohan was incredibly helpful - nothing was too much trouble. And Jacqueline at breakfast was a delight! Great selection for breakfast, fresh milk available at all times, an ice machine and even a drying room. Most of all, the bed was unbelievably comfortable! Parking was also available which was a huge bonus. We will be back!
