High Ridge is perfectly situated right in the middle of Ambleside. However, it really does need some TLC. There are damp patches on the walls , the bed linen is rather questionable, & the window blinds are just simply dreadful . They let light in, don’t work properly & are very tatty indeed. The furnishings are of poor quality & there are just far too many dreadful pictures on the walls. The kitchen & bathroom are good but the rest of the property needs a jolly good face lift . Having said all of that it was okay & it’s saving grace was the location. ##### Sheila Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### D Jul 9, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Don’t stay here Bedroom wall had bad damp all over one wall which left a musty smell. Main room had only one blind which meant sun light woke me up at 4/30 am. Terrible mattress which was awful to sleep in. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/78102DD22EDC67F40630403219B8B9ADBC8306CB1688937968227.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### D Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brian Feb 16, 2023 Liked: Amenities, communication Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Great location with good-sized rooms apart from the bathroom which is poorly laid out. Maybe lose the bath and make room for decent sink and toilet space. The toilet is very close to a frosted window with a flimsy/see-through bamboo blind so it felt like we could be seen from outside. The mattresses were pretty hard and the beds squeaked, which made for a poor night's sleep. The double room has a 3-sided dormer window with a single blind so be prepared to wake at sunrise. Well equipped kitchen with a full range of pots, pans, cups, plates, glasses etc. The frying pan lost its 'non-stick' many breakfasts ago so we had to buy one from the shop downstairs. The entire flat is in need of redecorating, as there are damp stains on the walls in all rooms. The WiFi didn't work and there were no instructions so we didn't know which network to connect to and had no password either. The phone signal is pretty poor in the Lakes so WiFi is essential. The biggest issue was the 'free parking permit', we arrived to find two parking 'Discs' so I felt like we had been duped. We had to move our car every 60 minutes between the hours of 10:00 to 18:00 every day, which was a real pain. On the last day, I spoke to the cleaner from downstairs who said that there should have been a yellow disc left for us. Did the last guest forget to leave it? Ideally, a welcome pack informing us about the parking permit and WiFi would be welcome. ##### Brian Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [Clements Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-Clements-Wharf.h44409925.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bugle Coaching Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Yarmouth-Hotels-The-Bugle-Coaching-Inn.h5769317.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clifden Arms](https://www.expedia.ca/Aylesbury-Hotels-The-Clifden-Arms.h36967162.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels Durham Royal County](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-Durham-Marriott-Hotel-Royal-County.h16844.Hotel-Information) > > [Tides Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Pevensey-Hotels-Tides-Cottage.h42241061.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/High-Wycombe-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32463857.Hotel-Information) > > [The Jack Russell](https://www.expedia.ca/Andover-Hotels-The-Jack-Russell.h22409152.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanders Yard](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-Sanders-Yard.h3911017.Hotel-Information) > > [Carrington House Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bournemouth-Hotels-Carrington-House-Hotel.h478887.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [The George](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h45140643.Hotel-Information) > > [The Avenue](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-The-Avenue-Inn.h6473860.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Low-Wood-Bay.h5243.Hotel-Information) > > [The White Hart Royal Hotel, Moreton-in-Marsh](https://www.expedia.ca/Moreton-In-Marsh-Hotels-White-Hart-Royal-Hotel.h3848404.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [The Dog at Peover](https://www.expedia.ca/Knutsford-Hotels-The-Dog-At-Peover.h23184480.Hotel-Information) > > [Fair Place](https://www.expedia.ca/Hornsea-Hotels-Fair-Place.h30998110.Hotel-Information) > > [Robins Nest](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-Robins-Nest.h31003257.Hotel-Information) > > [Sail Loft](https://www.expedia.ca/Yarmouth-Hotels-Sail-Loft.h30995852.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel St Ives](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Harbour-Hotel.h175599.Hotel-Information) > > [Mill Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Tintagel-Hotels-Mill-Cottage.h26989959.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bull Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Shrewsbury-Hotels-The-Bull-Inn.h12289153.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunrise Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Shanklin-Hotels-Gracellie-Hotel.h8080384.Hotel-Information) > > [YotelAIR London Gatwick ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Yotel-Air-London-Gatwick.h18969729.Hotel-Information) > > [Balincourt Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Bournemouth-Hotels-Balincourt-Guest-House.h2626067.Hotel-Information) > > [Whitby Bridge Luxury Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Mirfield-Hotels-Whitby-Bridge-Luxury-Apartments.h64575874.Hotel-Information)
