Ambleside is a new neighbourhood in south west Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is bounded on the north by Anthony Henday Drive, on the south by Ellerslie Road, on the west by 170 Street, and on the east by 141 Street.

Bus service to Ambleside was created in October 2007 on Route 324 by the Edmonton Transit System during peak hours only.

The main roadway into the neighbourhood is Windermere Boulevard. There is some residential development located just to the south of this roadway east of where it intersects Terwillegar Drive.

As of May 8, 2007, the City of Edmonton map utility contained virtually no data on this area. As this area develops, more data should become available.

The origin of the name is Old Norse Á-mel-sǽtr = "river — sandbank — summer pasture".
