    they were consistently attentive and friendly throughout our stay. The family room was spacious, clean, and exceptionally comfortable, perfect for unwinding after our adventures. On the downside, the noise from the pub downstairs could be disruptive at times.

    The location is perfect for exploring Ambleside. Our family room was huge and clean! Staff really stepped up when we needed last-minute accommodation—shoutout to Greg for being super helpful. Just a bit noisy at night from the pub downstairs, but overall a solid stay!

    disruptive noise

    I had a very good experience at The White Lion. The room was spacious, warm, and comfortable, featuring a huge bed that provided an excellent night's sleep. The bar area and outdoor space were enjoyable, with a good selection of real ales. The meal we had on the second night was well-presented and very tasty. The staff were attentive and friendly, which contributed positively to our stay.

    The noise from the pub below could be disruptive at times.

    pub noise

    The room was clean and tidy, with a super comfy bed that made sleeping a breeze. Loved the spaciousness. The big shower was great. Just wish the decor was a bit fresher. it's clearly overdue for a makeover. The location was perfect for exploring, but the noise from the pub made it hard to sleep some nights.

    5.0

    The pub downstairs has a great atmosphere and really sets the tone for a lively experience, which is nice if you're looking to unwind before bed. The family room was spacious and comfortably furnished, providing ample room for our needs during the stay.

    Check-in took place right in the busy pub area, which felt a bit awkward as people milled around. Unfortunately, the bathroom cleanliness left a lot to be desired—black mould in the grouting and dirty tiles were a rather unpleasant sight. the noise from the pub and early morning deliveries made for some disrupted sleep, not to mention the lack of basic breakfast options such as cereal and pastries. With the prices charged, I expected a bit more than what we got in room comfort and cleanliness.

    comfy bed

    It was just a suitable option for a weekend pause in Ambleside with good value. The bed was very comfy during our stay. Try to keep earplugs handy for the noise at night.

    inefficient check-in

    Staff was welcoming and showed us to our comfy room, which had a cozy, modern vibe. The bar area was lively and perfect for grabbing a drink after a day out, and the location was key for exploring. Easy parking made our trip stress-free.

    The check-in process could be more efficient, and the bathroom could have used a detailed cleaning.

    great location but noise issues

    The location truly stood out, allowing for easy access to nearby waterfalls. The big, comfortable bed made for a pleasant night's sleep, and I appreciated the clean and spacious room. The beer garden provided a lovely spot to relax in the sun, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. Guests up the road enjoyed their clean family room, and I personally found the room size generous and well-maintained.

    Noise from the pub below proved to be disruptive at night.
