Great place to stay - Rating 5/5
We stayed for a couple of nights in October. The room was lovely, very nicely decorated. Our room had ensuite facilities, small refrigerator and kettle. The room was at the back of the house and we had a view. Lovely and warm with the option of an extra fan heater if cold. Bed was comfortable and the duvet was cosy. Our host kindly, left us a bottle of water each and you could also help yourself to a piece of cake and glass of wine. Various breakfast options inc vegetarian, you do not go hungry. A lot of thought has gone into provision for walkers with boot and coat drying. The weather could have been sunnier but our host is not responsible for the weather :) Also there is car parking at rear of property which is very useful and easy walk into town centre.

Janet and Stuart are absolutely lovely hosts, so friendly and welcoming. There is home made cake you can help yourself to and a welcome glass of wine.Such nice touches. We stayed in the ‘suite’ with the separate seating area and kitchenette. The extra space and facilities were really useful for us and still extremely good value compared to other Ambleside prices. No compromise on the quality of the stay though, which was excellent all round. Really good view from our room of Wansfell Pike. The room was lovely, really nicely decorated, very comfy bed, extremely clean bathroom. All seemed very recently decorated and all was of a very high standard. Janet and Stuart were very accommodating with breakfast times which was excellent-fresh fruit, cereal, cooked options. Definitely recommend this B&B if you are looking for somewhere to stay in Ambleside.

Janet and Stuart go the extra mile and manage to think of a need, without us saying anything. The accommodation is incredibly comfortable and we enjoyed the little touches like cake and wine in the afternoons and tea with fresh milk in our rooms. Even the garden was lovely to sit in. I cannot recommend Wordsworth Guest House and Janet and Stuart enough. Come as guests and leave as friends.

This is our second visit to the 'Wordsworth Guest House' as we were completely blown away with the first visit. Janet (Owner) couldn't have been nicer if she tried, she kept Room 3 for us as this was the room that we stayed in on our last visit and nothing had changed, all round perfection. Once we got unpacked it was down to the patio in the garden were Janet provided us with wine and a selection of home made cakes, the Gingerbread and the Bakewell Slice went down a treat.Our breakfasts in the morning were out of this world, there was various cereals, yogurts, fruit juices etc followed by a range of cooked breakfasts which were perfect. Once again we couldn'tthank Janet enough for her kindness and hospitality, we will certainly look to stay there again in the near future and will certainly recommend the Wordsworth to friends and family. Thank you Janet

I am so pleased I booked Wordsworths Guest House for our short break in the Lake District. From the moment we arrived Janet made us feel as welcome as old friends. Our room was amazing - warm and comfortable and with everything we needed including a great view of the garden and nearby fells. There's plenty of parking and in fact we didn't move the car at all during our stay as there are glorious walks into the mountains just from the front door. All the shops and restaurants (in particular the Vegetarian paradises of Zeffirellis and Fellinis) you need are just a short walk away too, as is the pier for the Windermere boat cruises. A plentiful breakfast set us up perfectly for the day, and best of all Janet provides a seemingly inexhaustible supply of delicious cakes - I only hope we weren't too greedy! We struck really lucky with the weather too as a snow fall followed by bright sunshine made the whole area look absolutely stunning. All in all a wonderful and relaxing few days - which was just what we both needed.

Unfortunately Janet was not around but we were able to sample her delicious home baking thanks to the selection of cakes that are on display for guests to enjoy. They even supply wine in the fridge to help yourself to a glass or two! The breakfasts were excellent and nothing was too much trouble including my dietary requirements. The guest house is centrally located with car parking which was so handy. We enjoyed the Lily Bar just down the road on both nights and the live music was excellent.

I can honestly say that the ‘Wordsworth’ has got to be the best guest house that my wife and I have ever stayed in over our forty three years of marriage. On arrival we were met at the door by Janet (owner) who showed us to our room, which was room No: 3. The room itself had recently been re-furbished and was perfect, we had a large king sized bed which was very comfortable and there was new dressing gowns and slippers for us to use. Our new en-suite bathroom was well appointed with shower gel, conditioner, hand soap along with large fluffy white bath towels. Janet showed us to the dining room were she pointed out the offer of a free glass of wine along with a range of home made cakes which went down a treat later in the day. Breakfast was out of this world, she had various cereals, yogurts, fruit juices etc followed by a range of cooked breakfasts which were perfect.

My husband and I spent the weekend at the Wordsworth Guest House whilst taking part in a charity event in The Lake District.This guest house is absolutely lovely. Very clean throughout and we had a lovely big room on the top floor. Everything had been thought of, bottles of water in the fridge, vanity packs in the bathroom, even ear plugs in the bed side table!Janet was so welcoming and accommodating and couldn't have done more for us.The breakfast was beautiful and the freshly homemade cakes were an added delicious bonus that I was raving about to the others taking part in the charity event.I would definitely recommend staying here and I look forward to returning in the future.Thank you Janet and family for a lovely stay :)

We had a fantastic two night stay at Wordsworth guest house. The room (room 6) was extremely clean and recently refurbished. The breakfast was amazing and Janet went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The complimentary wine and cakes were a lovely added extra. The chocolate brownies in particular were gorgeous! I would definitely stay there again when we visit Ambleside and recommend it to anyone else.

Janet couldn’t have been more welcoming and her hospitality was incredible. Our room was perfect 5Star accommodation with all our needs met for an overnight stay, however would have been equally comfortable for even longer. From home made cakes, to ‘belly buster’ breakfasts to set you up for a day of walking, or even just marveling the splendor of the Lake District.A definite return visit would be recommended. Many thanks Janet for a lovely stay xx

Great weekend in the lakes. - Rating 5/5
We never tend to go back to the same place twice, but we have made an exception with the Wordsworth guest house and our next visit towards the end of June will be our third.Great accommodation and value for money, delicious breakfasts that even cater for a fussy vegan, but it is the attitude of the owners that keep us coming back for more. We were visiting the Lakes to take part in the Great North swim, so the free cake and wine were greatly appreciated. We had an early breakfast on the Sunday. Janet had kindly dried all our swimming kit in her boiler room. After the swim we had a shower in our room before a late checkout. It's these thoughtful additional touches that make this such a great place to stay.

My wife and myself have just enjoyed a perfect two night stay at the Wordsworth in Ambleside. Janet, Stuart and Laura are a lovely family who made us feel welcome. They couldn't have been more helpful or kind. Everything was spotlessly clean and we were blown away by our bedroom when we arrived. They had thought of everything to ensure our stay was perfect. Breakfasts were delicious and the complimentary glasses of wine and homemade cake (also delicious!) were a brilliant touch. Free parking was also a major plus. No driving around Ambleside looking for non-existent free parking! They certainly give value for money and our stay couldn't have been more enjoyable. We'll definitely be returning for longer stays and will recommend the Wordsworth to anyone looking for the best B&B in the Lakes. Thank you Janet, Stuart and Laura for a wonderful stay.

We have been to Cumbria many times as we both love the mountains & lakes aspect & the overall outdoor adventures. This is the first time however, that we have stayed near a Town and Ambleside was beautiful. We were able to deep in & out of the Town & go a bit further afield to Langdale and other walks. The local restaurants were all so friendly & accommodating, namely Dodds & Jintana.Wordsworth Guest House itself was first class! Janet was so friendly & the room with its great views was immaculate. The breakfasts were very tasty & nothing was too much trouble. The personal touches, such as cake and wine were lovely.

We were shown to our rooms which were very clean,comfortable and come with all the modern TV and WiFi. The bathroom was perfect and modern….. 10/10 for the mattresses too, best sleep I’ve ever had. We notified that there was complimentary wine and cakes on arrival, the sugar boost was well and truly welcomed after a fair drive from Manchester.The hotel was quirky, homely with a very relaxed atmosphere. We was presented each morning with a full English breakfast coffee and tea on tap. There was fresh juices, yogurts, cereals and fruits to help ourselves too.The hotel is situated on the doorstep of the town which hosts, restaurants, pubs, shops and other retail. The location is perfect for exploring Ambleside and everything she has to offer.I look forward to returning and us being able to do our own thing.If you’re looking for a little gem then Wordsworths Guest is it. 10/10

Bright airy and had everything we could need. On the landing were guide books, walking itineraries and a communal iron and ironing board- they had it all covered.Only a short walk to the centre of Ambleside and the main bus stop so you could get out and away easily.Breakfast was great with a choice of a Full English or maybe just eggs on toast. Rest assured whatever you chose Janet would be back to see if you needed more sausage or toast or tea. Then when you were letting it all settle Janet was there for advice on trips or things to do.The whole house is done in a very nice way with little touches everywhere.Not sure how many returning guests she has but we'll be one !Janet & Co. excellent hosts-the nicest B&B we have ever stayed in

What a wonderful little guesthouse, Stuart & Janet are lovely hosts and make you feel so at home, on arrival we were greeted with a warm welcome followed by the offer of a glass of complimentary wine and home baked treats (my favourite being the flapJack) lol we were then shown to our room, No 5 which was decorated perfectly to give a light and airy feel and I can’t stipulate enough how clean & fresh everything was!Some lovely little touches as well like a mini fridge & tower fan which came in handy with us being blessed with warm weather, complimentary water was left in the fridge and plenty of hot drink facilities with a choice to suit all, after a sound nights sleep in our comfy bed it was on to one of my highlights.. the cooked breakfast! Lol a menu is offered at the table with enough choice to please everyone, I had the full English which was served to our table cooked fresh and very tasty both mornings!

Janet was very informative and gave us some great tips for dining out and discounts on ferries etc. Homemade cakes for you to help yourself, and there was even my favourite lemon drizzle, and wine if you want it. Located in the heart of Ambleside within a few minutes walk from shops, cinemas and many eateries. Great base for visiting other towns and villages in the lakes. Faultless.

Where do I start? We have just had the most relaxing weekend in Ambleside and could not recommend this guest house more. The hosts were exceptional, nothing was too much trouble, they gave great advice on local restaurants and places to visit. The room was beautifully appointed with care and attention to detail, fresh milk was provided in a little fridge along with bottled water and this was refreshed daily. There were tea and coffee making facilities with plenty of tea/coffee/hot chocolate/biscuits for the duration of our stay. The complementary toiletries were of a high standard and there were ample towels provided along with a hair dryer. The bed was super comfortable and that along with the blackout blinds/curtains ensured a fabulous nights sleep, which was then followed by an incredible breakfast! The home baked cakes (which are delicious) and choice of wine that is provided for guests to help themselves to was a lovely touch and most appreciated, as was the option to go along to the spa at a hotel within walking distance to the property.This really is a fantastic find and we can’t wait to go back.

Lovely guest house, spotlessly clean and lots of attention to detail including wine and home made cakes throughout our stay.

We will definitely be back.

My husband, daughter and I stayed at Wordsworth Guest House for 3 nights. The B & B is beautifully decorated and we were made to feel very welcomed as soon as we arrived. There's parking at the back of the B & B and a lovely terrace that guests can use at any time. Janet bakes fresh cakes every day and they are available to help yourself to at any time along with red, white and Rose wine! What a treat!

A Lovely Welcoming Stay!! - Rating 5/5
We chose to stay at Wordsworth’s at short notice on 10th and 11th August because of curtailment to a camping trip due to the inclement weather. We weren’t to be disappointed by this choice. We were given the large double studio for the duration of our stay and have to say it was stunning and absolutely spotless with all the conveniences we could possibly want, with fridge, microwave, tea and coffee facilities and even two tv’s!! Our hosts were brilliant and couldn’t do enough for us. There was even complimentary wine and cake on offer, and I have to say Janet’s cakes were stunning. All in all a lovely place to stay, and one which I would thoroughly recommend!!Iain and Bev.

To good to leave! - Rating 5/5
We booked the suite room for two nights to celebrate our 20th Wedding Anniversary as a couple.We liked the idea of the suite because we are introverts and findpeople interactions can be a little draining.The suite comprises of a small kitchenette and seating area.Our interactions prior to arrival was friendly and accommodating.The directions to the free parking were spot on and we had no difficulty in arriving.We were greeted by Janet, who was very friendly and helpful.The suite room surpassed our expectations.Being excellently furnished and having some exceptionally sumptuous carpets.The use of the kitchenette allowed us to avoid eating out every night.Gave us a space to watch TV without having to lay on the bed and provided space to play games in the evening.We were pleased to be able to make use of the DVD collection provided to guests.We are also on a journey to zero waste so the use of a fridge and crockery really allowed us to minimise our impact on the local environment.Nothing was too much trouble, including adding in breakfast should we need it.We did treat ourselves one day to breakfast, which was absolutely delicious and highly recommended.In other guest houses we have stayed at, staff have often not been aware of the needs of the guests.Being too in our faces.This has not been our experience here.We were allowed our space but also saw the staff be very attentive to people wishing to engage more.We felt so comfortable in this guesthouse that when Janet mentioned we didn’t need to rush out as the room wasn’t book for that night, we decided to stay an extra night.Location wise the guesthouse is within a very easy walk to all the amenities in the locality and less than a mile from the Ambleside pier where you can pick up the ferries for travelling on Windermere.This guest house will be on my preferred stays for years to come and will be highly recommended to anyone wishing to stay in the heart of the Lake District.

Just spent an amazing weekend at the Wordsworths Guest House. We were to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. The rooms werw exceptionally comfortable, i had the best night sleep. Tea, coffee and water in the room was very welcome. There were plenty if towels, which was fantastic, as you usually never have enough. Breakfast was fab, and set us up well for a busy day. Getting back to the hotel we were greeted to sn amazing smell of freshly baked cake, believe me it tasted as good as it smelt, and with a glass glass of wine, sat in the sunshine was perfect. We will definitely be returning here, i think we have found our spot. ðŸ˜

Wordsworths - Rating 5/5
We found Wordsworths Guest House to be the ideal place to stay in Ambleside.It is in a very central position and easy walking distance to the lake, the shops, the bus station, fell walks.The guest house has its own car park which is a great advantage in Ambleside. We parked our car on arrival and travelled by bus for trips out.All the rooms in Wordsworths are very comfortable and tastefully decorated.Janet, the owner, serves a delicious breakfast with lots of choice both hot and cold.As a kind gesture she also leaves homemade cakes and wine for guests returning in the evening which can be enjoyed out on the patio.We have stayed on 3 occasions at Wordsworths.For our recent stay, in June,we booked the king size suite. As well as a lovely bedroom there is a combined lounge/kitchenette area with sofa, tv/ microwave, toaster, kettle, fridge, table. We would pop into nearby Tesco to choose from a variety of microwaveable foods for evening meals and snacks for lunches etc.Although the suite room was slightly more expensive, we found that the difference was more than made up by not having to dine out in restaurants every evening.This room will be our choice for our next visit.Thank you Janet and family.

Jan and Stu and their daughters are fab, very friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the lakes.The rooms are a great size with wonderful views. everything is spotless, and you wake up to a wide variety of choice for breakfast.Jan has home made cakes that are too die for, and wine to wash it down. This is a gift from them to you for staying with them.I have raved on to my friends about Wordsworth guest house and they are planning on going there too.There is plenty of space to park, and it is situated right in the heart of Ambleside.

Love this place, 5 minute walk to local shops, bars, restaurants, bistros,3 cinemas, garden centre,10 Minutes from the Ambleside ferry and boat hire. On the bus routes to Windemere and Keswick. 15 mins drive max to Grassmere, Hawkshead, Bowness. This property has the added bonus of parking at the rear and a drying room for walkers & that`s just the start, on arrival you are welcomed and generally taken to your room, of which you will not be disappointed, The owners Mother & Daughter excel in making you feel at home, there`s always freshly baked cakes Wine /juice and water on offer. The breakfast is vast and i can recommend the full English! Room 6 is where we like to stay this being upgraded since our last visit to have a kitchenette style room with a couch and dining space, 2 tvs. Although this property faces the main road i don`t recall hearing traffic and have always slept very well. Value for money, looking forward to our next visit!!!!!

Also, location is very convenient to explore the Lake district.Safe, easy and free parking.Twin room is very cosy and compact with modern decor and stunning views overlooking the mountains. Spotlessly clean with comfy bed and good quality bed linen. No disturbance with the traffic noise at all.Very good breakfast with vegetarian option available.Wine, freshly baked cakes, juice, yoghurt and fruit are available throughout the day and guests can help themselves with them if needed. Nice extras!Did not plan your walks? No worries, host has about 3 inches thick folder with local and Lake district walks available for you to choose from.

I cannot rate my stay highly enough. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The little extras - homemade cake, free spa passes and wine on arrival - made this place stand out from other guest houses. The owners are so helpful and approachable and the breakfasts faultless with a wide selection of extras available such as herbal teas and fruit conserves. My single room was cosy with a very comfy big bed and underfloor heating in the en suite. A powerful little hairdryer and free toiletries meant I could travel lighter and I was provided with a spare towel for my trip to the nearby spa. Parking is not easy in these Lakeside towns so to have this included was a real bonus. The guesthouse is far enough away from any pubs to be quiet at night but within a 5 min walk of shops and amenities. I don't often stay anywhere twice but this is one I will certainly look forward to visiting again. Perfect for a solo traveller!

The room was well decorated and furnished. Small but adequate en-suite (shower and toilet), though having the hand basin in the room separate from the en-suite was less than ideal.Good quality bedding and towels.Clean and presentable.Basic for the high price (though we did stay Aug bank holiday).The breakfast was ok.We thought that there was an odd taste to the coffee, perhaps the water filter needed descaling.Suggestions for improvements include sockets for charging phones on either side of the bed with USB ports, remodeling the en-suites to include a hand basin, ensuring the tea and coffee tray remain filled, using fresh flowers in the dining room not plastic, updating the very small TVs, and generally thinking about updating for the modern world of IT.We did enjoy our stay, and were the last guests of the current owners, who were knowledgeable, friendly and professional.Good luck to them!

Enjoyable stay- Rating 5/5
A warm welcome, beautiful house and room and well cooked and plentiful breakfast. The bed was comfortable, towels soft and everything spotlessly clean. Only one (slightly)negative comment. The separate room with sofa, which i think could be used for sleeping was nice and would be really handy for couples with kids but for me personally would be better as a bigger en suite with bath. The small but beautifully clean shower room space could then be used to put the wardrobe and an easy chair and there would be no need to have washbasins in both rooms. Sorry, just a little niggle. All in all we had a comfortable, welcoming and enjoyable stay.

We received a warm welcome from Anna. Our rooom was lovely. Decorated to a high standard and spotlessly clean. We met Paul the following morning who shared his passion of photography with us and passed on many useful tips for using our new camera. The breakfast was superb, resulting in two clean plates. This guesthouse was 2 min walk from the town and offered free use of nearby leisure facilities which was a great bonus. We usually stay in hotels, , shying away from B & B's. However this is one guesthouse we will certainly be visiting again and soon. We would warmly recommend this place if you want warm hospitality, comfortable rooms and a great breakfast.

Anna and Paul could not have been more welcoming. We could not fault any of the service. The rooms (our daughter in her 50's stayed in a separate room) were clean and cosy and the beds comfortable. Breakfast freshly prepared and the "home-made" marmalade highly recommended. (Can't wait to get started on the jars we brought home!!) Although we don't walk very far ourselves, there was plenty to see locally, parks, gardens and an easy walk to a Ferry point on Lake Windermere. There was one very rainy day when we spent a great deal of time in the best garden centre we have ever encountered. (plus furniture, kitchen ware, gifts, and Christmas decorations to die for, etc etc)Upstairs there was a massive restaurant plus outdoor seating. This was within a short walking distance of Guest House. Certainly hope to return to Wordsworth Guest House.

Our return visit was once again too short. The rooms are bright large and impeccably clean. Anna is always helpful and welcoming. The guest house is in an extremely good position in Ambleside which I think is the best spot for visitors.

A Perfect 3 Night Stay - Rating 5/5
Anna is a perfect host who made me feel welcome and looked after, without being too intrusive.The room was compact but with everything to be expected. Immaculately clean and pleasant decor. The most comfortable bed I've ever stayed in and 3 brilliant nights sleep.Breakfast was also excellent with a good choice.I'd highly recommend this guest house.

Clean well located great value - all the basics ticked - Rating 4/5
A very nice base run by friendly people. Functional rooms that are clean and equipped with all the expected items. Only downside for us was the shower which kept going hot and cold .Would have liked the option of a bath after a long walk but this is a guest house not a hotel and the rooms were otherwise pleasing. Delicious home made sausages and jam. Would recommend +++

Lovely stay at The Wordsworth. The owners Anna and Paul could not have been more welcoming. Breakfasts were awesome with an 'eat as much as you like' policy which we were in favour of.My only criticism -as an owl not a lark - was that breakfast finishing at 9am at the weekend was a bit early when youre on your holidays...Even so will definitely go back and will recommend to others.

Lots of choice on the breakfast menu and you don't have to wait long at all for your plate to arrive. Lots of walks in the area and within easy walking distance of Ambleside and it's plethora of restaurants. Even if the weather is grotty the rooms are so nice that you don't mind spending a few hours chilling out at the guest house. Also useful that there is off road parking although I'm not sure that everyone would fit if it got crazy busy but this wasn't an issue on a rainy February weekend! Thanks for a lovely stay :)
