What to do in Ambleside
There’s plenty to do in the Lake District both on and off the water. Want some suggestions for your stay at our Ambleside hotels? Here are just a few of our favourites.
Hire a rowboat on Lake Windermere
Why not make a day of it on the water? Pack a picnic lunch and hire a rowing boat for some old timey fun. Want more adrenaline? Choose a speed boat or even a kayak to get closer to the action. It’s well worth the effort, as they say, the best views are from the water.

Visit the Roman Fort ruins at Galava
