Hotel Dekat beach near Brockhole on Windermere

"This is unique experience. With outstanding views of Windermere and Ambleside. Try and avoid wedding weekends. As the menu is limited but still a lot of great choice and variety. Staff could not be more helpful and attentive. Makes a huge difference to a trip, I hope the management team take note. We stayed in the cottage's which were great for us as we travelled as a 6. And gave us some extra privacy and ability to spend the afternoon on our own terrace together which was great. But...

"Wonderful hosts, ideal location, nothing is too much bother. "

"Très bien situé à l’entrée d’Ambleside, nous avons beaucoup aimé cet établissement. Les déjeuners y sont complets et copieux et leur programme Green qui permet d’avoir une consommation par jour si on ne demande pas le service de nettoyage vaut le coup. Notre chambre était petite et au 3ème étage. Ça peut être un défi avec les bagages. Le plus gros inconvénient était de n’avoir aucun crochet dans la chambre ou même dans la salle de bain pour les serviettes. Cet aspect serait à améliorer…"

"Yha in Lake District are such gems. This one is great for Kentmere, and when arriving or leaving via the M6."

"Friendly and clean "

"Great location on the waterfront & close to the (few) eating options in town. Helpful & friendly staff. Basic & sparse rooms with (slightly glitchy) wifi. Good, hot breakfast and an evening meal that was surprisingly good. Free parking in the vicinity & close to the local trails & hikes."

"A bit dates but clean and lovely staff"

"One of the best hotels in the area. Beautiful garden overlooking the lake. Good food and friendly staff. It gets understandably busy on sunny days. Easy walk to Ambleside."

"Wonderful stay. Hotel is beautiful and the staff are very attentive. "

"Parking space, food available all day, lake across the road, walking distance to the village, excellent helpful staff."

"The breakfast was very good and the bar was comfortable."

"Beautiful clean room presented very well, ideal location for walks in the fells or just nipping into Ambleside town for a drink, would recommend this place to anybody"

"Very pleasant small property. 5 mins walk from central Ambleside. Well equipped and warm. Perhaps a bit small for a family of 4 but great for two people. Nicely decorated with thoughtful touches. Only one parking space but a car park 4 mins walk down the hill. Would recommend."

"Nice place, right time of the year. Cabin and hot tub were excellent. The shared pool leaves a little to be desired for young kids. Especially those who may not be confident in the water. I would go back and stay in Lodge 15 Langsdale again. Short trips in the car gave great views of the area and loads to do. "

"Apartment was really nice, roomy and comfortable, ideal for two couples. I wouldn't recommend it for families with kids due to proximity to a bar and noise in the evening. Only other niggle was that while the apartment was well kitted out in general, we had to go out and buy hand wash and toilet roll. Not ideal if arriving late and those are expected provisions in my mind. Overall though, I would recommend as handy central location and it was in good condition. View from the living room was...
