Melrose Guest House is one of the most
popular and most pleasant places to stay in Ambleside.
The elegant Victorian house, which is conveniently placed for the town's many amenities
and attractions, has been run since April 2006 by hardworking Alan and Lynn Salter. They have
made many improvements since their arrival, and their hard work, high standards and
enthusiasm are already attracting return guests.
The eight guest rooms (six en suite) spread over four floors consist of four doubles,
two triples, a single and a family room with a double and two single beds. All have
television, radio-alarm clock, hairdryer, refreshment
tray & kettle, toiletries and good fresh towels.
One room on the ground floor caters for those who find stairs a problem. Breakfast is
served between 8.30 and 9.15 in the splendid breakfast room. There's a buffet-style choice
of cereals, toast, preserves, juices, yoghurts,
tea and coffee, and the option of a full English, lighter English or vegetarian meal. The
owners can provide packed lunches with a little
notice; they don't serve evening meals, but there
are plenty of fine eating places nearby.
The guest house is popular with walkers and cyclists as well as tourists; guests have
their own front door keys and there are ample drying facilities and safe storage for bikes.
A garden bench at the front is a perfect spot for taking the sun and watching the world go
by. The owners have four free passes into the nearby Low Wood Leisure Complex that
are available to guests; its amenities include a swimming pool, gym, Jacuzzi, steam room
and outdoor hot tub. Alan and Lynn ensure that every guest soon becomes a friend and if the visit
is for a special celebration they'll go to the trouble of laying on a treat in the room on arrival.
