About Us

First opened as “Ullswater View Boarding House” in 1904, Old Water View has been welcoming walkers, travellers and holiday makers for over one hundred years.   Alfred Wainwright stayed here on a number of occasions whilst he was creating the world famous “Coast to Coast” walk, the route of which passes within 100 metres of our door.

However you arrive at Old Water View, whether on foot or by car, you can be sure of a warm welcome, and comfortable accommodation.

Nestling on the banks of Goldrill Beck, which flows round our garden, Old Water View is the perfect place for a relaxing break, whether for a single night or longer. All the main tourist centres of Ambleside, Windermere, Keswick and Penrith are within easy reach of Patterdale.

Guests have their own exclusive lounge, where you are free to relax without feeling as though you are sharing our family accommodation.

Old Water View is very “walker friendly”, and if you should happen to arrive with us slightly “damp”, we will try to ensure that you leave the next day fully refreshed, and in dry clothing and boots!!

We have a guest lounge, with a real log fire,  equipped with Internet access, a TV and video, as well as a wide selection of maps, guide books and games. At the end of a busy day, a perfect place to relax and plan your next one.

Our Guest Lounge

As most of our guests prefer it, all the guest rooms at Old Water View are “Non Smoking”

We aim to ensure you leave us at the end of your stay refreshed, and ready to face whatever the day might have in store for you. We’ll send you on your way with a traditional “Lakeland” breakfast, and with a packed lunch if required.
