Great hosts. Well kept property. Beautiful location. Proximity to road means there is a bit of traffic noise but earplugs easily sorted that. Excellent breakfast options. Ask where to park BEFORE arriving as it isn't on the property itself :)

Wow! A wonderful place to stay. Great food too.
Megan and John were the perfect hosts and very welcoming. The property is clean, the bed so comfortable and the breakfast was amazing. The most relaxing B&B we’ve stayed in and would highly recommend this to our family and friends.

Stayed for 2 nights as we were attending a wedding nearby. We were met by John, the owner, who was very helpful in suggesting raxi firms to use. We were allocated a a room on the top floor which was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice and all freshly cooked. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

Absolutely Lovely B&B
We were so happy to have stayed here! Lovely location, convenient to local shops, art gallery, and restaurants. Our room was brilliant: newly remodeled and super comfortable, spacious, and clean. Owners were very kind and helpful, also providing a delicious breakfast. A fantastic B&B, epitomizes the experience one should have in the Lake District. We'll certainly be back!

A lovely family run B&B
This is a lovely B&B and the owners John and Meg go out of their way to ensure you are comfortable and have everything you need. The room was nice and the breakfast was great. Parking is just around the corner in the public car park but you get a permit to park for free, which can actually be used for free parking in other towns too which is handy if you want to explore. The location is very convenient, just a couple of minutes walk from the shops and restaurants, and a short walk to Windermere.

Horrific for £100 a night
The hosts were fine, friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good however the room was terrible. Advused once checked in it was the only room in the place that hadn't been refurbished and it was very obvious. The shower and toilet were literally in a cupboard, id sit on the touket and my feet were in the shower. Una le to turn around in shower litetally less than a metre in width. Room very basic, uncomfy bed, minimal everything for £100 a night. Spent the previous night up the road at ambleside central for £45 nighr. Family room, seperate bathroom, kingsize bed, single bed, great facilities. It was like goijg from a 4 star to a 1 star at the compston... Id stay again for location but only for hostel orice of 12 quid a night, not worth a penny more

We stayed here in April 2023. Ambleside is beautiful and Compston House is ideally situated with some great pubs and restaurants. Wonderful hosts who are very knowledgeable about the area. Breakfasts were delicious with a good choice, the room was clean and comfortable and free parking was nearby. Highly recommended.

Great B&B in the heart of Ambleside
Really felt at home in this lovely little gem of a place in Ambleside, nothing too much trouble, breakfast was amazing, a very friendly pleasant and polite young couple hosted us. I only stayed one night as one on route to finishing my holiday in another place but was a welcome place to rest my head thank you.
