We have just returned from the most wonderful stay at Yewfield. What a stunning setting with a feeling of complete peace and tranquility. The team at the hotel could not have been more friendly or welcoming. The building is beautiful with a cosy and relaxing atmosphere inside. We were fortunate enough to be given an upgrade but both our original room and upgraded room were gorgeous, clean and comfortable with lovely bathrooms. In the room there were teas, coffee, homemade vegan flapjack (divine), and on the landing a communal fridge with different milks available and a great selection of CD, books and DVDs to borrow. The breakfast was outstanding. We would wholeheartedly recommend and cannot wait to return.

When we arrived and I asked if they had a carpet free room because I had had asthma problems at our previous hotel, they could offer us a beautiful wood-floored room at an extra price, but it was definitely worth it. I loved the multiple kinds of fresh cut-up fruit at breakfast. Breakfast, though not a cooked breakfast, was ample and delicious. The B&B is a few steps from the bus stop where all the buses stop to go all over the Lake District. Staff friendly and helpful.

The hosts, Adie & Mandy are fantastic - so happy to share recommendations of places to visit, where to eat etc. Our room was very comfortable & had everything you could possibly need. The whole place is spotlessly clean and the breakfast is truly amazing- such a great choice & everything is cooked to order, so perfectly fresh. The location is ideal as you’re just off the main road, so easy to walk to the shops & restaurants but far enough away to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep Would have no hesitation in recommending Brantfell House if you’re looking to stay in Ambleside
