Everything was top class.
Beautiful room. Comfortable bed, toiletries, TV, tea tray all great.
Breakfast was high quality. Very enjoyable.
Guest house is right in town so you can walk to shops restaurants and good pubs.
Highly recommended.
Lovely B&B, beautifully appointed and perfectly located. The owners are really friendly, and the breakfast excellent. The bonus of off-site parking was ideal as parking in Ambleside is understandably difficult.
Highly recommended.
Outstanding property outstanding hosts in perfect location in the heart of Ambleside.
Kevin and tracey are the most friendly welcoming couple.
Street parking for free and 2 min walk into the friendly town
Excellent BB with top class rooms and service. All the furniture is excellent quality, the rooms are nicely decorated and the breakfast is perfect. Secure parking is provided and the property is located central to the town. I would definitely recommend the BB as a perfect place to stay.
I thoroughly enjoyed it, the hosts were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable of the area. Public transport was excellent.. I Would recommend the the guest house to anyone.
Friendly, approachable,owners couldn’t have done enough for us, beautiful room,exceptional breakfast, would recommend this b&b to anybody wishing to stay in Ambleside
A wonderful bed & breakfast in the heart of Ambleside! We had a fantastic stay; the room was comfortable and a good size, with a lovely modern en-suite. Breakfast was absolutely delicious with lots of choice. Highly recommend, we would definitely stay again!
Absolutely loved our stay at Melrose Guest House, fantastic location, it was spotlessly clean, breakfast was amazing, and nothing was too much trouble! We wanted to run the local Parkrun, and weren’t going to be available during breakfast times, so a breakfast tray was organised for us to enjoy later in the morning when we got back. Will definitely stay again if we return to the area.
Such a lovely welcome and delightful stay. A very attractive room and property with comfy bed as well as delicious breakfast and helpful information made for a great stay.
Perfect location central to all amenities in Ambleside. The room was comfortable and well furnished with quality products. The bathroom was super new with a smart power shower - excellent ! Breakfast was superb with a range of choices of hot/ cold food , would highly recommend
Great location, couple of minutes walk from the restaurants. The breakfast was excellent, clearly using best quality produce. There's an EV charging point just around the corner. The guesthouse parking is about 5 mins walk away by the main carpark.
After staying in many bed and breakfasts in Ambleside this is by far the best one. Nothing was ever any trouble and the knowledge of the local area was second to none. Free parking and a wonderful breakfast what more could you want. This is now my go to bed and breakfast in Ambleside. Thank you again for a lovely stay.
Absolutely nothing to say negatively about Melrose House. Our room was spacious, updated bathroom, quiet, comfy king-sized bed, and wonderful breakfast options. The location in the middle of town was quite convenient. Parking is a bit away from the guesthouse, but there are options to bring the car closer, if needed.
Fantastic stay! Very clean room, centrally located and great breakfast. Tracy and Kevin were helpful with maps and suggestions for hikes. I did not bring a car and the bus stop was 2 min walk from the guest house. I was able to get to everywhere I needed. Will definitely be back
Good B&B would stay there again. Minor gripe on my single room with separate bathroom is the dressing gown was small for me, I am tall, the bed squeaked at the slightest moment and the room was too warm for me but I do like to be cool at night so that's a personal preference, as I say minor gripe that wouldn't stop me staying there again.
