After an awful journey to the lakes, in heavy rain and rush hour traffic, we were welcomed by Gregor and Emma with fresh coffee and homemade brownies, which was was a delicious and much needed surprise! Our room was comfortable, clean and I fell in love with the vintage inspired decor, and the surprise rose petals on the bed! More than just the usual kettle, instant coffee and longlife milk, great attention has been paid to providing a pretty tray with kettle, nice china, teapot, caffetiere and 'proper coffee', aswell as being able to help yourself to fresh milk from the breakfast room throughout the day to use in your room. Emma and Gregor were helpful with suggestions for where to go for a meal, and the information book included in the room is very useful and well written. In the morning, Emma, knowing that the trip was to celebrate my birthday brought my breakfast with a candle to blow out! The breakfast was lovely, all freshly made and beautifully served. After a long walk around stunning bowness and windermere, we headed home. A special Thank you also for introducing me to the ascent of Rum doodle - after buying it shortly after our return, I have hardly put it down since!

I'm booking my third yoga break at Braemount House because I've had such relaxing times on the previous 2 occasions. The yoga breaks are a brilliant combination of luxury at Braemount House with Emma and Gregor catering for our early morning and late breakfast needs, combined with fabulous yoga with Carolyn Ferguson in the Footprint building (National Trust) a short ride away. There's also time for walks and sightseeing. A perfect way to recharge your batteries. Roll on March!

This accommodation is the complete package: our room (room 4) was very nice and comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, the location is a convenient half-way point between Bowness and Windermere, and there is also a quality and varied DVD collection! Above all else, the service was top class - Emma and Gregor are very nice and attentive hosts, offering sound advice on places to go and things to do. Wouls definitely go again.

We had such a lovely time during our stay in January. The hosts Emma and Gregor are so welcoming and we instantly felt at home! Tea and chocolate brownies on arrival (YUM) and it is definately worth paying a little extra for the suite room in the attic (room 9). The area is perfect, short walking distance to both Windermere and Bowness and the breakfast was delicious. Nothing was too much trouble and we really didnt want to come home! Thanks very much Emma and Gregor, we will certainly come back and recommend Braemount House to friends and family :) Tilly and Paul x
