Traditional hospitality, personal service and individual touches ensure that a stay at Brantfell is a relaxed, comfortable and rewarding experience for your visit to the Lake District.  Ideally situated only 500 metres from the village centre, Brantfell makes the perfect base to explore this unique part of England.  Personally run by its owners Chris and Jane Amos, Brantfell has become a sought after establishment for guest accommodation

Whether rambling, climbing, driving or just relaxing, you are spoilt for choice.  The list of visitor attractions is endless and are either within walking distance, or, for the less athletic, a short journey away by car or public transport.

Built around 1860, Brantfell is a typical Lakeland property that has been carefully restored by its owners.  Each room has its own en-suite facility, is decorated to a high standard and, of course, has lots of the "mod cons" expected by today's discerning visitor.

The majority of the rooms have wonderful views, and for that special occasion there is a "four poster" bedroom, where you can wake up each morning and look towards Fairfield and Loughrigg fells.

Brantfell has a residential licence and the welcoming log fire in the lounge is a lovely way to relax after a full days walking on the fells or sightseeing.

We hope that by accepting our informal hospitality, as many of our previous guests have done, you will fall in love with Ambleside and return to us again as friends.
