Brathay Hall - Brathay Trust

Location was lovely nice walk into the town

Room was a bit dusty and cold draft through the window. Too early of a check out didn’t feel good value

I forgot to book this, so no comment

The rooms were spacious and the beds were very comfortable. The location and grounds are beautiful. The staff were very welcoming (especially Lisa who was great throughout). Will definitely return here.

It was all great! But no hairdryer in room.

Beautiful scenery and the bed was super comfy.

The setting and the lovely comfy bed.

Accessibility , views, access to lake.

Nothing

Warm, clean,amazing views and great location. Peaceful, large bedroom, comfortable bed and great shower.

Liked everything

Nice little cottage for a couple of nights. Beds were comfy but only doubles.

It wasn’t very homely - needed a bit more comfort & a fire in the sitting room would be nice. Seating would be tight if there were 4 of you. Kitchen equipment was a bit sparse. Downstairs bathroom was a bit chilly.

Breakfast was not included but there was a fridge in the room and a kettle etc. the bed was really comfortable and the shower worked really well. The sitting area made it more than a b& b, like a little suite really.

Nothing I can think of.

It was a great place with awesome nature views and very quiet. Only 20 minutes walk to the town centre. The room is very spacious and so was the bathroom. Everything was clean and dog friendly.

The two only things were that the pillows were not great (but it may be me as it happens in most places I stay) and that there was nobody at reception in the morning when there was supposed to be someone (not important as I did send a message regarding the check out).

Location and grounds. Dog friend too!

Breakfast was not an option

The surroundings, clean, mother from centre of Ambleside.

Nothing.

The property is truly beautiful. The view of the lake from the room was incredible and definitely worth the extra money. The facilities were lovely, and the staff were very kind and helpful, even letting me stay and use the wifi and lounge to do work for a few hours after checkout.

It's a bit far from the nearest town of Ambleside (about 25-30 minute by foot) but it's not a difficult walk, just be sure to buy anything you might need during the night while you're in town.

Nice & quiet & good location & not far away from town

Everything was ok

Beautiful view Amazing staff

Room went very cold as heating turned off at midnight Tv didn't work Having to park so far away and walk to the room in stormy weather after an 8 hour drive

Fantastic views across to Ambleside and fells, spacious room and bathroom , comfortable with 2 arm chairs

Perhaps a little too warm but we were able to turn off the radiator

Staff so helpful and accommodating Lovely walks

Great location, dog friendly, comfortable bed, room was clean and tidy. Easy access to outside which was handy for our senior dog.

Would be nice to have a cafettiere included in the room for those who like there morning brew.

Log burning fire , and breakfast left in our room really good value , and an extra heater provided

Parking away to far from hall specifically in the pouring rain

Location

Wasn’t anything I didn’t like about the property

Location. Room.

All ok thanks

Lovely room. Nice view across a field to a pond. No check-in as such. Just go to your room.

Haphazrd parking where you have figure it out yourself. Not easy in the dark.

Excellent location. Good value for money. Comfortable.

Nothing.

We stayed in the scafell lodge and the room was spacious, comfortable and the views were stunning. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if visiting this part of the lakes. Perfect for couples, hikers, anyone wanting to visit ambleside and the surrounding areas, and very dog friendly too! Felt like staying in a spa room but with better views and half the price

Everything was great

Loved the building. Staff were really friendly and helpful. And the log fire is perfection!

Nothing much to complain about. I don't think the extractor fan was working in the shower, but it wasn't really an issue.

Quiet comfortable room with Ambleside, Rydal, and Grassmere on the doorstep :)

Great location for Ambleside. Provided what we needed.

Minor detail- had to google instructions on radiators. Cottage was not that warm on arrival and took a while to work out how to heat it. Would be good to have instructions readily available- maybe along with the pre arrival email. But only a minor suggestion on an otherwise great property.

Lovely location, building and facilities

Nothing - our second time staying here and loved it

Everything

Nothing

I absolutely love staying in the lodges. It’s so peaceful and feels like a world away from any stress of normal life. I’m a Registered Nurse and my job is stressful. We both however have stressful jobs and time out is always helpful to refresh ourselves.

Nothing

Stayed in Jiffy 2 - over a mile from the Hall down a hazardous very narrow road located with two other terraced properties. Outside gardens front and rear - very unkept and ugly. Where are the beautiful english gardens? View from upstairs bedroom overlooked backyards full of disgusting ugly mess. Inside the place stank of mould and musk. Pokey and very uncomfortable. Pics on website are not current and do not show poor quality of building. Flaking paint, damaged kitchen cabinets, upstairs broken window frame meant cannot keep cold out. Bare minium furniture. No soundproofing from outside or inside noise. No extra blankets. The bath tub - OMG!! Needs a good scrub! Bedroom ceiling light blown. Power cables above rear kitchen door - unacceptable. Toilet lid doesn't stay up for men. Stairs are so steep and narrow = could not take suitcases upstairs. Elderly mum could not safely navigate stairs so had to sleep downstairs on lounge with my duvet as no other bedding and I had one base sheet on my bed so had to turn up heat to keep warm. No toilet on 2nd floor so had to navigate stairs twice each night - dangerous when half asleep. Perhaps bring back the chamber pots. Please fully disclose the stairs with photos for future guests. Overall we are very unhappy and this is among two of the worst places we've ever stayed in.

Great view and spacious room

As there was a canteen there it would have been good to include a breakfast

Quite roomy accommodation, quiet location, clean and comfortable room. Oh, the 6£ breakfast was worth it. Little fridge provided in room

It was a bit tricky to find the reception, could use some signage. Wifi was not the best either
