The owners made us feel special from the moment we walked through the door. With a warm welcome we were than advised on the best place to park, before being shown to our beautifully decorated and extremely clean room. The owners were very knowledgable on places to eat out and having tried some of their reccomendations they were excellent suggestions.... More

My friends visit Ambleside to walk every year and have been back to this guest house for the last 7 years. This was my first visit, but will not be my last. The owners were attentive without being intrusive. The rooms were clean and had all the facilities needed, the breakfast plentiful and of good quality. Really a great experience... More

Stayed at the melrose and I have to say I couldn't find a fault with the place. Stayed in the kingsize room and it was beautiful. The bed was gorgeous and the bathroom even better. Worth every penny. Would highly recommend to anyone. Cleanliness was 100% and the breakfast was gorgeous.

Very impressive attention to detail with everything. Spotless rooms, delicious breakfast and always someone to offer friendly advice on hikes, restaurants, parking etc. Spa facilities at the (short drive away) Langdale are better for families than individuals or couples in my opinion. Ambleside is a great place to stay in the lakes to with plenty of shops, restaurants and even... More
