We loved everything about our stay at the Wateredge Inn. The place is beautifully decorated, the room was quiet and cozy, parking was so easy and the food was just delicious. We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our vacation. We will definitely be back in the future.

Great location right by the lake. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the check-in area was also the same place as the bar, which meant that it took a long time to get checked in as you had to wait in line with people who were ordering drinks. Otherwise the stay was nice.

Wateredge and the other properties under same management are not clearly delineated or described in Expedia's online info. Wateredge is a historic (cramped, uneven floors, tiny rooms) inn. the other properties are modern. Better advertising would have informed us and allowed us to choose better accommodations.

A decent hotel
We enjoyed a two night break. The hotel was fine, but nothing special. We were comfortable had a decent breakfast but evening meals were unimpressive.

Great hotel near Ambleside. Pros: As the name suggests, it's right at the edge of the lake - beautiful surroundings and a lovely beer garden overlooking the lake.
The staff were all lovely;
An easy walk into Ambleside village, and only 10-15 minutes drive to other villages such as Grasmere, Windermere and Bowness.
Cons: room was comfortable, if a bit dated and even slightly neglected - un-filled screw holes, areas left poly filled but not sanded or painted etc. Decor probably not been updated in a while.
Car park was a bit awkward.
Breakfast wasn't bad but nothing to write home about.
Nonetheless we enjoyed our stay immensely and would return.

Staff were very nice but essentially this is a pub with some rooms above it. The property doesn’t live up to the images on Expedia. It is situated on the lake and only 10 minutes walk from the town centre (not 3 minutes as stated) but the room was very small and overpriced imo. The pertinent question in any review is, would you stay in this property again? Unfortunately, I would not. The staff were very pleasant but overall I felt it was poor value for the price charged. One final thing to be aware of, check in was at the bar which was very busy when I arrived and anyone with mobility issues should avoid this property as the rooms are up narrow stairs.
