Had a fantastic time in AMBLESIDE. The guesthouse was very comfy and really clean. The room was spacious and was tidied daily. The breakfast was lovely. We had a room on the ground floor so no view but other than this very minor point it was brilliant. Good price too.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and no regrets in choosing the Melrose. It was in an excellent central position, and the owners were extremely helpful and friendly. Only down side, if there was one, was no lounge facility. Breakfasts were excellent, and would visit again.
