This cozy bed and breakfast house was chosen for our hiking group in Ambleside by the tour company arranging our travel, and I was very glad they did. Mandy met us at the door and reviewed how the house and breakfast work. She assigned us our rooms, and ours was on the top floor. We had a few flights of stairs to climb, but since we were there to hike it was not a problem. Thankfully, Adie carried our bags up! The room was very comfortable. We had a separate sitting room which was nice. The bathroom had a great shower. We slept well in the beds. Adie was an excellent host. He gave us so much information about the town and had been on many of the trails. He clearly enjoyed visiting with the guests and sharing Ambleside with us. Mandy cooked up delicious breakfasts. The eggs were always perfectly cooked. We had choices from the full English breakfast, fruits, croissants oatmeal. The food was elegantly plated, the coffee and tea delicious. The House is located across from the park with easy access to the trails, the restaurants, and public transit. I would definitely recommend the Brantfell house to my friends and stay here again.
