Lovely stop between Scotland and Slough.

The hotel is in a very good location with local shops and restaurants very nearby. Its near the waterfalls and lake. Staff very nice. One minor things no cooked breakfast on offer but I could do with losing a few pounds.

100% would stay again

Very friendly hotel located just outside of the main town centre. Parking was easy and reasonably priced, and the welcome by the host was excellent. The whole hotel was very clean, comfortable bed, nice shower bathroom, and a good selection for breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

8/10 Very good

Booking. Com charged me an extra £29 per day for a cooked breakfast which you apparently do not provide. The continental breakfast however was excellent. A grab handle would be useful to aid getting in and out of the bath, also I would have preferred a softer mattress and pillows. But otherwise a very enjoyable stay.

Highly Recommended place to stay

Our stay at Brathay Lodge was fantastic. Our room was spotless, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The location was also brilliant, it was right in the heart of Ambleside and close to all the main parts of the Lake District. The reserved parking spot was also a lovely added touch.
Our room. (Number 21) it was at the top of 3 flights of stairs!

Lovely stay. Excellent location for exploring the Lake District. Close local transportation, restaurants, and pubs. Our children enjoyed park across the street with mini putt, tennis, lawn bowling, chip and putt, and croquet. Also, a great continental breakfast!

The location was awesome and most of all the staff was really friendly and helpful. We asked for a recommendation on where to go to for a sightseeing and we followed the suggested route and it was breathtaking. Thank you so much for suggesting for us to go take the A592 to Watermillock. Simply incredibly! Very grateful for the hospitality and kindness from both the hotel managers.

A great place to stay in Ambleside

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.

A welcome break

It was a last minute booking but we didn't regret it. The room was lovely, cosy and spotlessly clean with a view of the hills. The staff were attentive, friendly and helpful. We both needed a well-earned rest and that was exactly what we got. The continental breakfast was delicious with an excellent variety of food. We would definitely recommend Brathay Lodge for a visit.
