You can't go wrong!

I would definitely recommend a stay at Brantfell House. The English breakfast was lovely. Our bed was VERY comfortable! Adie is full of knowledge and enthusiasm about the area, and is happy to provide recommendations when asked. We felt really welcome here.

10/10 Exceptional

This was our first stay at this property which was very conveniently located within Ambleside. We were warmly welcomed at the properly and had a lovely room, very comfortable and smart. There was plenty of space to store clothes and the bathroom and other room. I have only left off a rating for the Eco-friendliness because I wasn’t really paying attention to this aspect of our stay so isn’t really fair to rate. I didn’t observe anything eco-unfriendly at the property. Our room facilities were excellent. Our hosts were very knowledgeable of the local area and gave us some useful help and advice as well as being very friendly. Breakfast was excellent also. Will definitely visit again.

Great stay at Brantfell House. I couldn't fault anything and really appreciated the attention to detail. Lovely room and delicious breakfast, beautifully presented. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Fantastic short break.

We had a fantastic 5 night stay. The location in Ambleside is perfect, as it’s only a short walk into town with plenty of choices to eat and drink. There are some fantastic walks straight from the house, or an easy drive. Mandy and Ade are brilliant hosts - the breakfasts are superb and you can’t beat local knowledge for walks, or food and drink. We’ll definitely be back!

We loved our stay at Brantfell House. Adie and Mandy made us feel super welcome from the moment we stepped into the apartment. Adie is super knowledgeable about the area and gives good tips for things to do, while Mandy whips up delicious breakfasts. The room is spacious and great too. Highly recommended and we hope to be back soon!

10/10 Exceptional

We highly recommend Brantfell House if you're in Ambleside. The room was spotless, the bed comfortable, and the water pressure great. The breakfasts were very good - from cold choices like fruit and yogurt to traditional hot breakfasts. Adie and Mandy were friendly and helpful. A perfect site for doing beautiful walks in the area.
