Bed & Breakfast in Ambleside

Explore the Lake District by bike, or leave it in our car park for the day and get out and about on foot - you can do it all from our central Ambleside location. At Smallwood House we offer quality 4 star accommodation and bikers are welcome.
We have a guest lounge, with a cosy open fire which we light through the winter months and our guests have use of the luxury spa, gym and swimming pool at a hotel just a few minutes walk away.
We offer a personal service with a friendly small team and we love to help you make the most of your stay in the area. We’re passionate about providing not just great accommodation, but great hospitality, and many of our guests return year after year.
Ambleside is a bustling and vibrant small market town offering a good selection of specialist shops and great quality restaurants, bars and cafes. The high Lakeland fells beckon from our doorstep, or there are some pretty low level walks and waterfalls to explore, along with some great indoor visitor attractions nearby , including the homes of famous Lakeland literary figures like William Wordsworth or Beatrix Potter.
