The Melbourne Guest House is tucked away from the main road on a nice quiet side street. It had its own parking places which is a big bonus. It is a very pretty building, the decor was tasteful and modern, the entrance and dinning rooms were spotless. Our bedroom was very clean, warm and inviting, the bed and pillows were very very comfortable and everything you would need was available from toiletries towels hairdryer and tea and coffee. Our hosts Russell and Julie were very friendly and helpful, breakfast was a very nice experience everything you wanted was available and all good quality 😋. The next time we visit the Lakes we will try to book the Melbourne again, we highly recommend it with every thing only a short walk away, thank you guy for making our stay perfect.

Nothing everything was perfect.

A nice, clean, and cosy room with a very comfortable bed and convenient access. The designated parking was a great bonus, especially since street parking can be difficult to find during peak season. The host was friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout the stay.

The only issue was the placement of the shelf above the wash basin — it would be more practical if positioned to the side. With the limited space, it was quite difficult to use comfortably. That said, it was manageable for a short stay.

Loved that it was away from the hustle and bustle, parking for the property was handy. It was clean and cosy - Russell and Julie made you feel welcome and the breakfasts were great with lots of choice and all cooked fresh to order - nothing was too much trouble. Great value for money

There was nothing to dislike - the only thing for us would have been a lower floor room but there was only one room left when we booked and the room didn’t spoil our holiday and wouldn’t stop us staying there again

Arrived at the property and rang the number provided, was greeted by the host where we were allocated our key. We stayed in room 7 at the top of the property. The room was warm and very clean. Bathroom clean and the shower was great, nice and hot. Breakfast is available at a further cost but we didn't have any, but it did smell nice !! All in all we had a really great stay and I hope we can come back in the future

Breakfast, location, owners

Maybe a usb face plate for convenience charging

The owners were really friendly, great breakfast and although close to the village centre it was really quiet at night. Plenty of free parking on the street outside or the 4 dedicated parking spaces at the end of the street.

We were allocated an attic room which was fairly small with sloping ceilings due to being in the eves, so banged my head a couple of times. The bathroom although spotlessly clean was fairly compact. Having said that the price was fair when you take into account location and standard of property.

Very comfy bed with lovely white crisp bedding. Excellent pillows which mean a lot when you are away from home, Good tea a coffee making facilities, good clean bathroom and shower, The room was a little small and access to the small wardrobe was a bit tight, but it’s somewhere to sleep and have a good breakfast, Lovely cooked breakfast and Peter and Julie were excellent hosts. Couldn’t do enough for us, I asked for a ground floor room as I struggle with stairs and we got a ground floor room which made our 3day stay a lot easier, The Guest house is in a quiet area , a 10 minute walk down to Bowness a bit hilly , but manageable ,

The breakfast was lovely , the proprietor actually served the breakfast and what a really nice guy , very talkative and interested in his guests I think his daughter cooked the breakfast, it seems like a family business. The location was at the top of the town but is literally a 5 min walk up the hill .

Probably more attention to things running out in the room like , toilet roll , coffee tea milk sugar , tho I imagine if I had asked the second morning for more it would have been given to me .

Everything was lovely, the couple who run it Julie and Russell were very welcoming, room was very comfortable and clean, breakfast was beautiful, last minute booking as our previous hotel was not as expected, we definitely made the best decision to rebook here it made our holiday to the lake district much better, close to pubs, restaurants and some shops, about a 10 minute walk of the lake, it was a really lovely stay.

Hosts were brilliant , we only saw them at breakfast which is normal.. Very friendly and breakfast was brilliant.

No toilet paper so had to buy our own (i presume an oversight) . After the first night there was minimal milk left to have a cup of tea/coffee. The waste bin bag was left outside our door after first night .. All minor issues to be fair.
