I do not have enough superlatives for this place. Fantastic location (10 mins walk to the lake and 10 mins walk into the centre of Ambleside), unbelievable value (free parking and at other car parks in nearby towns). Alison was so welcoming and the room was gorgeous. A really lovely stay with our two dogs who were made most welcome too! Fantastic breakfast included with plenty choice, we won’t be staying anywhere else in the Lakes now!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Alison’s B&B. The location was perfect, the parking permit an unexpected bonus and my room was spacious and immaculately clean. The breakfast was lovely and freshly cooked to order and Alison was warm and welcoming. I would definitely stay again when in Ambleside.

Great stay especially if you have a dog

Stayed here to do the Fred Whitton, booked on location and taking our dog and it was great. Alison was a great host, very accommodating (particularly regarding bikes and dogs) and very helpful. The free parking in the car park just along the road is really useful. I would definitely stay here again.

A clean and newly furbished property managed by a capable and hospitable lady, serving good English breakfast. Our guest room with ensuite is facing the opposite side of the main road, so is quiet. The host also provides each guest a Business Parking Permit for free marking in a nearby council car park, which can also be used in other council car parks of the same council including one in Grasmere.

Alison was a great host. The guest house is perfectly located as you can easily walk into the centre of Ambleside or walk to the pier to go on a Windermere Lake Cruise. I had a very comfortable stay and the cooked breakfast was delicious.

Lovely b&b, very welcoming host.

Great b&b perfect for a two night stay in Ambleside. It's on the main road so there's quite a lot of traffic noise but this didn't interfere with our stay. Close to the center of town and the edge of Windermere lake. You can access a beautiful walk to Troutbeck village with stunning views across the lake from the backroad of the building. There's a huge garden center across the road from the building, I was surprised by the size of it, you can access the ferry to Bowness 10 minutes walk away.

Very friendly host and amazing breakfast

Lovely Victorian guesthouse midway between Ambleside Pier and town centre. Parking permit provided for nearest car park 100m plus can be used in other car parks in the Lakes. Excellent cooked breakfast and other selections available. Very friendly host, nothing was too much trouble. Lots of tourist leaflets available on each floor of 3 storey house. Bed very comfy. Would definitely recommend.

All good apart from the very soft bed which was a bit lumpy. Also a bit of noise from the road outside. But very clean as no good breakfast.

This B&B enhanced my walking holiday a lot!

The owner and the staff she employed were very helpful, approachable and polite. I stayed for 10 nights for a solo walking holiday and the owner was very willing to suggest local walks that involved great views and sights, including fantastic views of Windermere or the waterfall-in-the-old-growth-wood nearby. Each morning I was given a decent breakfast, a hot drink with oat milk, and the option to have cereal, orange juice or fruit salad. My room was very functional with a small kettle, a sink and a TV. My private shower just down the hall was high pressure, warmed quickly and was cleaned daily. I'd definitely recommend Lyndale Guest House and would definitely visit again if I wanted to stay in the same area. Thanks again to the owner and the team.

2 Nights in a excellent bed and breakfast. 10/10 .

If i could give 11/10 I would . We went for 2 nights and would definitely go again..The host Alison was very friendly and helpful. Free parking was via a parking permit in a local council carpark , which could be used in other car parks. The room was spotless and a quite big with your own bathroom .The bed was so comfortable I slept really well and was made each day while we were out exploring Breakfast was very tasty with a good choice catering for many tastes.My husband had a full English each morning while i had egg on toast. Alison also catered for vegetarians and those with different dietary needs. While Lyndale bed and breakfast is on the main road we didnt find traffic a problem. The bed and breakfast is 5 minutes walk from Ambleside village which is delightful and a popular place for walkers .In Ambleside there is lots of choice for finding something to eat on an evening, from fish and chips to pub grub and more . There are all the shops you would expected from quaint gift gift shops to mini supermarkets and plenty of walking /climbing attire shops. Or get a ice cream or coffee and just watch the world go by . Waterhead pier on lake windermere is a 2 minutes drive or a 10 minutes walk , with spectacular views of the lake and surrounding hills, and is well worth the walk. The b&b is on a bus route and its worth leaving the car and taking a bus to Kendal or Keswick, you get to see the surrounding countryside without having to worry about finding parking / fee
