Perfect weekend Getaway- Rating 5/5

1st time staying here. Brantholme is nestled in a lovely quiet spot but right in the centre of Ambleside. It has beautiful views and the town centre is a minutes walk away.Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean. It had a huge bathroom with bath and shower.We were greeted with a hearty English breakfast by our hosts Jo and Alan who made us feel so welcome.It was a perfect relaxing weekend away and we will definitely be returning to Brantholme.

We are happy you both enjoyed your stay Elaine. Thank you for your words and time. We did have a giggle ( Jo and Frank ) as you said you met a few lovely new people on your stay. I can assure you it was Frank who cooked your breakfast xand we are happy you enjoyed a good start to the day.Hope you can make a return in the near future and make use of the rear garden in the warmer times. Springtime is particularly pretty amongst nature. Remember to book directly for the best price.

Excellent- Rating 5/5

Spent last weekendat Brantholme with my son for our annual trip to the lakes. I must say what a great place, clean, comfortable and tastefully furnished.Jo and Frank are very friendly and could not have more accommodating. They have an excellent breakfast menu which is varied and their food was always served hot and promptly. The B & B is excellently located and only a a 5 minute walk from the town, there was also onsite parking.Very happy Phil & ChrisJo & Frank

Spotlessly clean and very comfortable B&B in the heart of Ambleside - Rating 5/5

We've just had a few nights break in Ambleside, staying at Brantholme for the first time. The location is absolutely perfect - a peaceful outlook over the park towards Loughrigg but only a minute's walk from all the amenities of the town. There's off-road parking, which is a bonus. We stayed in a large double at the back of the house. The room was very big, tastefully decorated and furnished, and exceptionally clean. It had everything we needed. Jo is a very friendly and helpful host. There's plenty of choice for breakfast and my husband enjoyed the cooked breakfasts he had. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again in the future.

Response

We're happy you both enjoyed your stay with us Elaine. Thank you for your words and time. Yes , our home is situated in a peaceful street so happy you enjoyed your location too with scenic views from both the front overlooking Wansfell and the rear with unspoiled views of Loughrigg and the Fairfield Horseshoe. Happy hubby enjoyed his breakfast for a good start to the day. Hope to see your return in the future and you can make use of relaxing in the rear garden on those warmer days. Remember to book direct for the best prices.

Its always handy to leave the carin our car park and enjoy stress free time (the driver can also enjoy the views ) ( or a drink or two just a couple of minutes walk around the corner ) . Look forward to seeing you in the new year.

Fabulous stay- Rating 5/5

Immaculate large room with very comfortable bed . Spacious bathroom . Pretty little terrace to sit out . Lovely breakfast with very welcoming hosts . Would certainly book again .

Response

Many thanks Claire. Were happy you both enjoyed your stay with us at Brantholme. The rear garden patio is a haven for relaxation and peace and quite popular with guests in summer especially , watching the sunset right outside across the fells. Some in the Summerhouse Reading room or down in the Hot tub watching nature. Happy you enjoyed breakfast for the start of your day. Hope to see your return soon. Remember to book directly, always the better deal.
