B&B in Cumbria

"Our second year visiting. Wonderful husband and wife team who cook and serve us breakfast and I imagine do all the cleaning. I do not know who owns or manages this hotel, but perhaps it is time for the owner to look at certain things in the bedroom (bathroom blind, vanity stool) to be refreshed, and some repainting. The sunroom at the front of the hotel seems to be used as a storage unit which is a great waste of a nice sitting spot. The breakfasts are excellent again due to the husband...

"We really enjoyed our stay thank you. Great room and very friendly staff near and tidy place. Would have liked a fruit or yogurt option at breakfasts with the continential selection, cooked breakfast was very tasty. "

"Amazing stay, very friendly staff, beautiful accommodation. Very clean. Breakfast was amazing, the best breakfast we have ever had, good quality ingredients. Lovely homemade complementary cake as well."

"Fantastic stay again here, great rooms fantastic view of the lake and great selection at breakfast. All staff very friendly and helpful"

"Great location and friendly staff"

"Most enjoyable stay staff friendly and helpful. "

"Superb location & only a few minutes walk to some really nice bars & restaurants. Plenty of on street parking with parking permit supplied by the host. Great host, very welcoming & a lovely breakfast with a vast array of choice from light options to the full English. Will be staying again."

"Brathay Lodge makes for a very comfortable and convenient stay in the Lake District. The room was modern and well-maintained and the staff friendly and considerate. There is a parking fee (unless booked direct) but you’d have to pay elsewhere anyway. If you have an electric car it’s a good idea to let them know in advance so you can use their reasonably-priced ProjectEV charger. The continental breakfast was fresh and varied and set us up for the day. Would definitely stay there again. "

"The price is the best part. No bar or restaurant but cheap, clean and modern."

"The property is dated but that is its charm. I really felt at home at the Copper Kettle. Service was superb. "

"Room was immaculate and spacious. I was worried about parking but it wasn’t a problem as I was able to get a space outside the front, and the back if I wanted. If you need to check in later than 8/9pm it isn’t a problem; just give them a call and they’ll arrange it with you. Breakfast was decent too! The only negative (a very minor point) is that the shower head appeared to have brewer’s droop! Other than that it was fabulous. I would definitely stay again. "

"The hotel is lovely but very traditional. The food is exceptional but the best thing about the hotel is the staff. They all go above and beyond, they cannot do enough for you!! "

"Wonderful. Would stay again!"

"This is a great hotel in maryport, lovely friendly staff. They have 2 excellent restaurants, the breakfast choice is very good x"

"Fabulous stay with Lorraine and Simon. We received a very warm welcome, the room was spotless and very comfortable and the breakfasts were superb. Thank you, we look forward to returning!"

"Our host was very gracious and welcoming. The room was large and very comfortable. We loved how close it was to the train station and restaurants. It was easy to start long hikes in the area. Highly recommended!"

"Cozy and warm place to stay. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food is great too. It takes twenty minutes to get to the railway station. Highly recommend. "

"I booked this last minute and so glad I came across it. Booked King but got free upgrade to large King. Everything excellent, very comfortable, quiet, clean, plenty of extras in room including bottled milk in fridge, two bottles water, cotton wool and buds as well as the usual shower gel, shampoo, conditior soap, and an extra nice touch wine glasses in room. Host very friendly and informative, folder provided with lots of information on local area. Mini bar with honesty box available in lounge....

"Lovely stay at Brantholme, friendly welcome at checkin, lovely room, everywhere spotless, owners very helpful , nothing too much trouble, great location with uninterrupted views of countryside but two minutes from front door is the centre of Ambleside, oh - breakfasts are excellent."

"Room was lovely , Food was really good and good to see a week run community run establishment. "
