Armida and I didn't know what to expect on our first trip to the UK, as well as our first bed and breakfast. The Ambleside was a great initiation into the country and the B&B lodging experience. Peter and Ruth took very good care of us, and we really needed it when the airlines lost or luggage! Peter calmed us... more

Just arrived back from a two night stay in this lovely guest house -what a find! The room was great and the breakfast well what can I say, we didn't need to eat again until early evening (7.00pm) We haven't stayed in a guest house for years and usually stay in hotels 4 and 5 star but I don't think... more

Immaculately kept, good value, ideal location and run by a friendly helpful couple. Thoroughly recommended! more

If you feel like a few days to relax and chill, I would highly recommend the Ambleside Guest House at Stratford. Ruth and Peter always look after you making sure you get the most out of your visit. The Guest House is comfortable and quiet even though it is located in the middle of Stratford, which is perfect for shopping,... more

I just want to say a massive thank you to Ruth and Peter for being so accommodating, especially after being caught in the floods. This is one of the best B&B's I've ever stayed in - warm,friendly helpful owners, clean room, a great breakfast and all at an extremely reasonable price. Thanks again, Rhianne more

A spontaneous theatre trip to remedy weeks of stressful work allowed us to stumble across this fantastic little find. Peter and Ruth were welcoming and kind - providing us with all the information an unorganised traveller would need. The rooms were clean, comfortable and homely; the guesthouse peaceful and perfectly positioned for jaunts into town - Benson's tea rooms were... more

This is a wonderful B&B, which was perfect for a relaxed and comfortable two night stay whilst visiting Stratford to go to the theatre. The location of the Ambleside is ideal, within a few minutes walk to the centre. Yet, at the same time it feels far away from the busier streets, as it is located opposite a very leafy... more

My daughter and I have just returned from a two night theatre break at Ruth and Peter's most excellent B&B. Our room was beautifully presented and cosy with an exceedingly sparkling en suite white bathroom, with big fluffy white towels to match!! Lovely comfy beds, (we opted for the triple room) and fresh crisp bed linen. The guesthouse itself is... more

The owners are warm and friendly. They are very helpful (we got a flat tire and they helped us find a place to get it fixed)! The rooms are great. They are nicely furnished, and everything has been completely redone with great taste. It was wonderful to stay there, and we hope we can make it back again sometime. Bob,... more
