About 1869 - Room Only Boutique Townhouse

A free parking permit is included with every stay at 1869 - Room Only Boutique Townhouse, a handy perk in a town where space is at a premium. The townhouse sits right on Lake Road, putting guests within easy reach of Ambleside's shops, pubs and local transport links without having to worry about where to leave the car.

Rooms are en-suite, with comfortable beds, good water pressure in the showers, and complimentary toiletries provided, while many rooms look out to the surrounding mountains. This is a room-only property, so there's no restaurant on site, but drinks can be brought to your room, and there's a garden with outdoor seating to relax in. WiFi is free throughout and reception operates around the clock, with guests finding check-in and check-out straightforward and the host quick to respond to queries.

The area beyond the front door caters well to outdoor pursuits, with walking and cycling routes, fishing and watersports all nearby, plus a golf course for those wanting a change of pace. Pubs, restaurants and entertainment venues are close at hand too, and pets are welcome for anyone travelling with a dog in tow.

Second time staying here, but this time it was for my boyfriend’s birthday. Lovely clean room, and they decorated with balloons. Great location and you get a free parking permit to use in the local car parks. Had an issue with booking.com and 1869 charging me twice, however they resolved it quickly and rang me straight away to confirm what had happened and that they had refunded me. I appreciated them phoning and thought it was great customer service. It’s a dog friendly hotel and we would definitely stay again if we are in the Lake District.

A clean, cosy, and comfortable place to stay in a very convenient location, with nearby parking and a permit provided that can also be used at other car parks. Within walking distance of many cafés, restaurants, shops, and Bridge House. Highly recommended for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

We have stayed here before and it was lovely so we thought we’d book the superior room. Very nice view on Ambleside town however the toilet is separate to the room which means you have to go into the main corridor if you wish to use the bathroom which was a little inconvenient however it does state this when booking. Room only had single glazed windows so was a little cold on the morning and quite noisy. I would definitely recommend a stay here but won’t recommend the superior room unless you really require the extra space. The normal rooms are very lovely and worth the cost. You also get a parking pass which is a really great perk as parking in Ambleside can be abit of a nightmare, you go in and your key and pass is waiting for you so no need to speak to anyone, great for introverts. Location is fantastic right in the centre of Ambleside and opposite a nice pub. Definitely would recommend. ⭐️
