"Great place to stay for Ambleside and the Lakes. Just five minute walk into town. Small room but you expect that in the Lakes. There is parking (it is very tight!). We didn’t see any staff but they sent us comprehensive self check in info. Everything you need for a couple of nights in Ambleside. Would definitely stay here again."

10/10 Excellent
"What a lovely venue. I booked the small, 1-bed room (number 7) for an impromptu weekend of walking in the lakes in Aug 2026. The B&B itself is beautiful and well positioned for easy access to the delightful town of Ambleside. It was the perfect base for 2 days of walking (Wansfell Pike, Scaffel Pike, Bowfell, Crinkle Crags etc). The hotel is in excellent condition and really well furnished. I managed to grab breakfast on Sunday morning and it was delicious (really generous portions and perfectly cooked). I didn't have a need to speak with the on-site team that much but when I did they were friendly and helpful. The whole booking experience was pain free from start to finish and I would definitely recommend to others. My one minor negative comment relates to the en-suite shower in bedroom 7. The ceiling is quite low which could be a problem for anyone over 6' tall. This really is a very minor point though. If you're looking for the perfect base for a delightful break in the Lakes, then I would definitely recommend Elder Grove"

"Completely blew all expectations! Really lovely property, perfect location to wander into town with lots of shops and plenty of choices for places to eat, to head off for a beautiful walk out on the trails or activities on the lake. It’s a short drive to other popular spots like Grasmere for gingerbread and caves! The host was a pleasure. Really friendly and super helpful. Breakfast in the morning was fab and we really enjoyed our stay here. Would absolutely recommend."
