“Another happy stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

Thanks to a cancellation we were able to stay again at this lovely bed and breakfast in the heart of windemere. It's location is fantastic for walking into Windemere and Bowness. We have previously stayed in the Attic Room and this time the Victorian Room. The rooms are all spotless and perfectly decorated. Sam and David are lovely hosts and really make you feel welcome in their home. The breakfasts are plentiful and we love the alternative breakfasts and locally sourced produce. We hope to visit again very soon.

“Our first B & B UK experience. Brilliant, amazing, tough to top”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2011

Our first ever experience of a UK B & B. Sam and David are the ultimate hosts. We booked for six days and don't regret one bit. Very helpful with our requests which included my wifes dietry needs. Their input to things to do was brilliant and the local eatings houses they said try, excellent. The one they said not to, was after we had dined their. Right again guys. Highly recommend and well positioned to town

Room Tip: Go for either the attic room or the four poster.

“Wow!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 August 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed at Briardene whilst attending a wedding nearby (rooms slightly dear at hotel where wedding taking place). I am so glad we did - there were many wedding guests jealous of our excellent find. The rooms were spotless with everything in, and more, that you need. I think the little extras made it extra special - like bottled water, mint cake, a printout of the weather forecast whilst you were there amongst many other things. The bathroom was top class. The breakfast menu was unbelievable and all freshly cooked. Sam and David were perfect hosts. The location was ideal - literally just outside main area of Windermere. I could go on writing about this gem but you need to visit yourself to believe.
