Beautiful room exceptionally clean , Tracy very welcoming and given good information as too breakfast which again was beautifully cooked very attentive , checking in and checkout was a breeze plus having lock up parking off the street was a bonus , great location only think when busy yiu need to book restaurants in advance definitely recommend this guesthouse
We had a brilliant stay at Melrose B&B. Our room was immaculate and had everything we needed. Staff were very helpful and parking was provided. There was plenty of choice for breakfast and the food was excellent. We would highly recommend and we will definitely be returning
The owners Tracey & Kevin were so lovely and welcoming to me and my partner! The bnb was clean, cosy and really nice to stay in. We loved our stay and will be back!
The Melrose was modern, very clean and the breakfast options were superb. Local for all restaurants / town amenities. We would recommend this guest house to anyone and will definately stay again next time in Ambleside

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.
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
Definitely recommend this bed and breakfast 10 out of 10 , could not fault anything we had a lovely time kevin and tracey also let us leave our bags after checking out as we had later train . This is my second visit and will come back many thanks from Elaine and Jenny
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.
Room was clean and very cozy, great during the colder months. Staff were awesome and the cooked breakfast was a great start to the day. Would definitely recommend staying here. Secure car park is about a 2 min walk from the property no issue for us but something to keep in mind.
Whereas I have had serious issues with my previous lodging during this trip (Kendal, Windermere), this place is hands down the most wonderful site. Clean. Comfortable. Great breakfast. Accommodating storage needs. Firm and hot shower with new fixtures. Quiet. Great bed and clean sheets. Clean carpet throughout the guest home. Hosts are knowledgable and friendly.
