About Melrose Guest House

Melrose Guest House occupies a Victorian townhouse on Church Street, right in the centre of Ambleside, putting guests within a few minutes' walk of every shop, cafe and outdoor retailer in the town. Rooms range from compact singles to larger king-sized ensuites, several with views of the surrounding fells, and all include free Wi-Fi and flat-screen televisions.

The guest house has built a strong local reputation under its current hosts, with breakfast consistently singled out by guests as a highlight of the stay, made using local ingredients and served in a relaxed dining room. Free parking is provided a short walk from the property, a genuine advantage in a town where street parking is at a premium.

Its central position and consistently warm reviews make Melrose a popular choice for couples and solo travellers wanting to be within walking distance of everything without paying boutique-hotel rates.
