Stayed 2 nights at the Ambleside On the Lake in Daylesford May 2012 and highly recommend this accomondation. The rooms were clean and very roomy and the breakfast was excellent. Our host Kim was so friendly and knowledgeable about the Daylesford district. A great relaxing couple of days and will return for a longer time. Well done everyone at Ambleside... More

Thanks so much to Linda and Frank for a beautiful night at Ambleside. The whole place is divine & perfectly decorated. The breakfast was sublime! All the extra's like offering us tea on the balcony when we arrived were lovely also. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking a relaxing night or two getaway. 5 stars!

I was meant to write this a while ago but haven't really come around doing it but I thought Ambleside on the Lake is definitely worth me writing a review as our stay there was absolutely lovely. We were in Daylesford for a friend's wedding and having lived in Melbourne before I knew how busy it can get over the... More

We decided at the last minute to escape the inner city party precinct we live in for a slightly quieter New Year's Eve, and found this lovely B & B just across the lake from The Lakehouse (from which we had a wonderful view of their fireworks at midnight). We stayed in the Lakeside suite which had stunning views from... More

This B & B has it all – great views of the lake, quiet, warm, very comfortable sitting areas, outstanding breakfasts, every whim and fancy catered for. Our hosts were gracious, attentive but never intrusive. They are also a font of local knowledge. Highly recommended, will be going back. Marion

Ambleside on the Lake is a very clean, comfortable & friendly bed & breakfast venue. The hosts (Frank & Linda) are fantastic. Their wealth of local knowledge provided our getaway with an "all round" experience ie provided a list of restaurants and spa/massage locations that were exceptionally good. The accommodation is brilliant. The view, from the room we stayed in,... More

Ambleside is a small place with only three rooms and a lounge/dining room for guest use. My mother and I stayed for three nights and we shared one of the rooms, which has a double and a single bed. Our room was generous in size and well maintained, with an ensuite bathroom. Ambleside is on the quiet side of Lake... More
