Fabulous tranquil location in a charming building. We upgraded and had a lake view, which was well worth it!!

Just outside of Penrith, the Brantwood Hotel is less than 3 miles from Ullswater. Just one mile from the junction 40 of M6 it offers en suite bedrooms and TVs.

Staff went out of their way to provide a superlative breakfast to suit my needs
Nestled peacefully amongst the Eastern Lakeland Fells and located on many of the best-loved Lakeland walks, this charming country retreat is ideal for a peaceful break in Dockray.
A traditional family-owned pub in Greystoke, The Boot and Shoe is only a 10-minute drive from the M6 motorway. The Lake District National Park is around 30 minutes’ drive away.

Breakfast was very good, the food menu was a bit limited, the location was a bit remote but reachable to any where by car.
Featuring a garden, bar and views of river, The Sun Inn is set in Penrith, 13 km from Askham Hall. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are available at the bed and breakfast free of charge.

very friendly country pub.Food first class great value for money.
Watermillock is like the name of the area. Just odd houses and the A592 which runs through it. I believe that most of the attractions of the Lake District are away from this accommodation. However, Ullswater is visible from the road, and lots of walks and eating places are not far away.

We did a couple of walks along the Ullswater, travelling by steamer and bus as well as by car. It was beautiful and quiet. We enjoyed visiting Pooley Bridge for meals, café and bookshop, as well as meals at Another Place.

Fabulous views form where we stayed.
Fabulous views form where we stayed. It was very near Aira Force Waterfalls a National Trust woodland walk.
It is a good base if you need to take your dog to visit Veterinary Vision in Penrith. The room was perfect for a family

The receptionist at the tail on arrival was underwhelming say the least.
The room was small and rather shabbily furnished. The hotel advertises itself as a four star hotel but is actually a three star hotel. The restaurant food is way overpriced and very poor value for money. There is a 10% service charge on top of the food which is not discretionary as in every other hotel. Other than location there is little else of merit in this hotel and I would certainly not recommend staying there. If you are unfortunate enough to have booked to stay there I would advise that you have your meals on room service which is better value than the restaurant

Our B&B at Lowthwaite was first class, we were very happy to have booked to stay there. Watermillock is set in beautiful scenery around Ullswater. I would love to go again, but would avoid eating at the inn in Dockray next time.

Good location for a two-night stopover, The hotel restaurant was excellent. Hotel facilities were a little dated, but not a big issue. Gardens are extensive, with a short walk to the shore of Ullswater.
Lovely looking building set high above the Ullswater lake beautiful scenery to look out the bedroom window. The Inn was warm, with friendly staff and made our stay very pleasant and enjoyable, always ready to serve and nothing any trouble even down to a jug off water with the evening meal. Lovely bedroom with en-suite and all meals presented well and cooked to perfection. The location was Brilliant to be able to get about the district and visit different towns although we come to the Lakes frequently it was great to have scenery to look at.
Ullswater Lake is our favourite lake and we have stayed in a number of different guest houses in this area. The Ullswater View is now our favourite. Lovely modern rooms and bathrooms, with robes and slippers provided for extra comfort. The breakfasts were lovely, lots of choice, great produce and homemade bread daily. The location is great set back from the main road (very quiet area so no issues with traffic) with wonderful views of Ullswater lake. Would highly recommend this guest house.
We had a lovely stay at Ullswater View. Quick drives to Pooley Bridge, Glenridding and Aira Force Falls. Service was excellent. Great breakfast, very clean facilities, comfortable room. The staff was wonderful and willing to share ideas on where to go. There are several walking trails in the area and the packed lunch from the hotel was perfect for our walk. And the honor bar was very much appreciated after a long day of walking.
My partner and I came to this hotel for our 1 year anniversary and New Years Eve. Every staff member we engaged with was welcoming and pleasant with smiles all around. The food was delicious and our room was large, warm and clean with views over the gardens and lake. (Room 1). We would be happy to stay again in future. The staff definitely deserve all the credit for our stay, we were very happy.
We rarely leave any review, but we’ve been really impressed by the kindness of our hosts, and their attention to detail. Quiet and intimate, this is the perfect retreat for a couple wishing to spent quality time minutes away from the gorgeous Ullswater.
Great room, great house and cleanliness is above standard.
Thanks again, highly recommended and we can’t wait to come back!
Breakfast was exceptional with lots of choices, Michelle was awesome! Although there were no views of Ullswater Lake, there were spectacular views of the surrounding hills and fields. Location was quiet with no surrounding commercial activity but still close to Pooley Bridge with great restaurants and boat cruise pier.
Exceptional selection of gluten free and vegetarian/vegan breakfast options and snacks, and really good and helpful tips for places to go eat or for walks/hikes. Jim was very friendly and welcoming, the b&b is lovely and has a very nice garden and seating area, good location to see the views near Ullswater too
The views are spectacular. It’s a cosy little place, really well equipped with everything you could possibly need. It’s been thoughtfully done with the comfort of guests in mind. It’s only a short drive from Pooley Bridge, which has two great pubs, the Ullswater steamer and shops. I didn’t want to leave.
The view overlooking Ullswater was lovely .The room was spotless , had 2 chocs waiting for us on arrival . Dressing gowns and biscuits were also left in our room which were little extras . There was an honesty bar and a lovely conservatory. The breakfasts were well cooked with decent options.
this is truly a dog friendly hotel. Our 2 Irish Red Setters were welcome as much as we were. earlier in the year we experienced a dog friendly hotel which was basically lip service. we would definitely recommend this hotel if your taking your dogs.
An excellent accommodation that suited the 3 of us just fine. Just like being at home, with all the usual comforts of home. Spacious, warm, comfortable, beautiful outlook across to Ullswater, quiet and really quite isolated.
The Views of Ullswater Lake were amazing
The Location was great - and with a Bus Service in both directions at bottom of lane
Tea, Coffee, Sugar, milk & wine supplied
We were very impressed by the Hotel Staff from the great receptionist to the bar staff etc. Breakfast was amazing true value for money. Thanks so much we will return.
