Just minutes from the picturesque village of Ambleside, our family-run hotel is an ideal base for exploring all that the area has to offer.

As a 'thank you' for staying with us, you'll receive a discount code on and after check-out. The hotel is conveniently located at Waterhead Bay, on Lake Windermere, just a short walk from Ambleside.
Services
The Regent Hotel has been run by our family since 1980, and we pride ourselves on our warm welcome & relaxed, friendly hospitality.
Our 35 beautiful bedrooms, famous late-late breakfast, and Cumbrian cuisine make The Regent Hotel one of the best places in the Lake District to stay.
Our location is perfect for exploring the area without your car, as we're close to bus stops and lake cruises, and around 1 mile from the centre of Ambleside village.
Our local knowledge means we can offer all our guests advice on the best walks, hidden gems to explore, and provide the best food in our resturant using local suppliers.
After discovering the hotel was for sale in a chance passing through Ambleside, Brian Hewitt purchased the property at auction, arrived with his belongings, and switched on the water - which promptly began to run down the stairs!
Brian and his wife Christine - along with their three sons - opened the hotel to guests at Easter 1980 (and after one or two over-bookings resulting in them having to give up their own bedrooms) they turned the hotel around.
40 years on, The Regent Hotel is an established (and still family-run) hotel, with 35 beautiful bedrooms, Table 22 Restaurant and The Deck - our outside bar overlooking Lake Windermere.
Our lovely restaurant Table 22's new, seasonal spring menu launches today and we're very excited!
Our team of creative chefs have been working hard to conjure up a fantastic selection of exciting, memorable and most importantly delicious dishes for our resident and non resident guests to enjoy.
We will start with what's new, and well, a must try.
New to the mains is the pan-cooked sea bass, served with asparagus, new potatoes, herb & citrus butter.
This dish is utterly delicious, refreshing and healthy.
The hotel is just a gentle walk from the picturesque village of Ambleside.
From our front door you can walk the fells, cruise England's largest lake, explore the Roman fort in Borrans Park, and enjoy Ambleside's amazing array of outdoor shops, cafes and restaurants.
The bay is surrounded by traditional Lakeland slate houses, hotels, restaurants & cafes, and is a bustling destination for those hiring a rowing boat, catching a lake cruise or feeding the ducks!
The views from the bay are stunning, stretching across the lake to the Langdale Pikes and beyond.
The hotel is conveniently located at Waterhead Bay, on Lake Windermere, just a short walk from Ambleside.
