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.

8/10 Very Good

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.

What a wonderful first stay we had! Lovely greeting and check in to our room which was beautiful and so clean. Breakfast was incredible! I ordered the avocado on toast 3 mornings in a row! Kevin and Tracey were fantastic, always on hand if needed. The area is beautiful and the street was very quiet when we were here. Great walks, even in the rain we had it didn’t spoil a thing. The car park was super handy as we drove, very safe and only a 3 minute walk away. We would most definitely return and recommend Melrose guest house to anyone wishing to visit the lakes.

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.

Exceptional Accommodation
We stayed for 7 nights B&B. Our accommodation was very clean, complete with absolutely no issues. Our hosts Kevin & Tracey are a lovely couple who, when required, between them seemed always available with very helpful words of guidance on any given aspect of holiday break. A truly exceptional Guesthouse in the centre of a lovely village. We will certainly be revisiting Tracey & Kevin when we get back to the Lake district.

Lake District Visit
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.

Ambleside ambience
A weekend stay at the Melrose GH was a great short trip at a lovely place to stay. The welcome was friendly and answered my concerns over parking. The parking is about 250 metres down the road but is gate secured and convenient enough. Single room very comfortable with a lovely bathroom across the landing. Breakfast was tasty with a good range of options. I was allowed to leave my car in the parking after checking out which was much appreciated. Thanks for a great weekend.
