The location includes idyllic gardens and a hike to a STUNNING view, with very few other people around. The owner was very friendly and accommodating, and the breakfast included a number of delicious, fresh vegetarian and vegan choices.

The Rooms at the Apple Pie was perfectly located in the centre of Ambleside, an easy walk to all of the shops. Our room was an attic room - the ceiling definitely is a bit low for someone who is tall, but it was a great size and very comfortable, we had a great sleep. There was an honesty bar system for cokes and crisps among other things, but we had both breakfast and lunch (and an apple pie) from the delicious bakery and cafe next door. Highly recommend.

Rooms were beautifully and comfortably furnished, with all amenities required for a quiet weekend away. The facilities are impeccably clean, tidy, and well maintained. It was wonderful returning to a warm room at the end of many a cold, rainy, and blustery day. Kate, the general manager, went above and beyond with ensuring we got the keys even after the reception was closed -- we were very grateful to her for that. Location is excellent, just a stone's throw from the waterfront and with excellent food options nearby.

The location is lovely. Over looking the mountain in the distance between tall trees of cedar and redwood. Also, a small pond down the slope where ducks would occasionally take a swim, great and fitting for the name. The walk path down the hill leads to a pool and further down the fences and bricked walls a pub called the Talboc Bar is located.
