    Every little thing taken care of and specific extras were provided to make life easier because we had a tough bike event during our stay. Thanks Mandy and Adie!

    I liked everything. No complaints on any fronts. And the premises were comfortable and warm. We also enjoyed having packed lunches thoughtfully prepared for us on two of the days.

    The breakfasts were superb! The best I have had whilst staying away in a long time. Plenty of choice and very happy to make amends to suit dietary or personal preferences.

    NA.

    My room was comfortable, had everything I needed and a good hot shower, essential after a big day in the hills! Breakfast was great, I liked the system of ordering the night before and picking what time I wanted breakfast. Mandy and Adie were great hosts, welcoming, friendly and couldn’t do enough to help. I don’t always feel comfortable staying places on my own but I really did at Brantfell and would definitely stay there again.

    A truly wonderful stay, friendly and helpful owners who went above and beyond to make your stay perfect. There was always an amazing breakfast ready for you whenever you needed it, with the best Full English’s and local smoked salmon. This was followed by walk and restaurant recommendations, and huge comfy beds at the end of the day. We couldn’t recommend more highly.

    This was the first time my wife and I had used Brantfell and we were very impressed. The breakfast was delicious, the rooms were immaculate and Mandy and Adie were friendly and welcoming hosts. Even car parking was not a particular problem for us. We would not hesitate to return to Brantfell whenever we return to the Lake District.

    Lovely Bed and Breakfast in Ambleside, parking was kindly provided by the owners using there guest pass for staying guests. The building is easy to locate, clean and perfectly located for leaving the car and exploring Ambleside which has everything covered, places to eat, shop and explore. The owners were onsite to me us and are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was perfect and the room was just right. If we are looking to stay in Ambleside again in the near future we will definitely check here first. Thanks for a great stay.🙂
