"Had an amazing weekend away at brantlea for my wifes 50th, couldnt have asked for more, the welcome basket wad unexpected but such a nice touch, the house is beautiful and nothing hasn't been thought of, stair gates and fencing helping keep two dogs contained, steep garden that leads to the hot tub, there is even a fridge and plastic glasses up there."
The views from the top of the garden are breathtaking. Would highly recommend brantlea and would love to visit again in the future.

Fabulous place to stay, just what the doctor ordered Loved the view from the hot tub Credit to the owners beautifully furnished and very peaceful Only suggestion I would make is to write on the website that hot tub towels,flip flops and robes should be taken, this would enhance your visit 10/10 excellent

Facilities were amazing. An excellent welcome pack with a lovely bottle of fizz. Would highly recommend the house, very spacious and immaculately clean, could not fault it in any way. Simon was a great host.

"Beautiful house and the sun shone all week."
What more could we ask for?
-
"We’ve just returned from a most enjoyable stay at Simon’s home."
Everything was as described and we were extremely comfortable. We didn’t have to use the car as it was only a 5 minute walk down into the town of Bowness-on-Windermere where we found lots of dog friendly bars and restaurants. We were delighted to find a hamper of local produce on arrival with a little treat for our dogs too. We would definitely stay again at this fantastic setting.
-
"We loved your house, wonderfully kitted out for the dogs as well."
Plenty of space and superb location!
-
"Beautiful home away from our own home."
Tastefully designed and decorated. Awesome view. Neat, clean, very well maintained. Couldn’t have been better. So thoughtful of you to place a welcome pack. Wish we could spend some more time. Hope to come again for a little longer.
-
"Our review reflects what everyone else has said about Brantlea."
Location was great with fantastic views from the hot tub. Very spacious accommodation which was very clean and well prepared with a great welcome pack. Simon was friendly and sorted out an issue with the hot tub very quickly. We were a group of 6 adults one child and a dog and we all really enjoyed staying here.
-
"We absolutely loved our stay here!"
Firstly, the house is in the most amazing location - being extremely walkable to the lake, shops, cafes and restaurants! There are also many beautiful walks in the surrounding areas of the house - which Simon kindly let us know about on arrival! The house boasts the most stunning views of the lake and surrounding hills, which we enjoyed for many evenings whilst sat in the hot tub (the view is even better from up there!!). The house is so lovely - just as described and I’d say even better than the photos! Has everything that you would ever need, super clean and really comfortable beds!! Simon was a lovely host - really accommodating! A few of our group were arriving early and he was kind enough to offer an earlier check in which was really helpful! Overall - this was a 10/10 and we would love to go back, as well as fully recommend to anyone thinking of visiting!!
-
"Stayed with kids - fantastic stay."
The house is very large with a great layout for a couple of families. We enjoyed the hot tub, views and the 10 minute walk through town to the lake. It is a peaceful spot with activities just down the road. Simon was communicative and helpful throughout. Highly recommend!
-
"Coming back soon!"
! Perfect place and hosts!! Very well equipped! Everything had been thought of and arranged before our stay! Lovely care package was there for us as well!!
-
"Our stay at this property was fabulous, we could not have asked for anything more!"
Great walking distance into Bowness where there were various restaurants and activities to keep all ages entertained. Would highly recommend for a family getaway!
-
"Thank you for a lovely stay."
Great location, love the views. Very comfortable & well equipped house.
-
"The house didn’t disappoint and in some respects was even better than the pictures show especially the location."
In a very quiet and select private close only added to the enjoyment. House was spotlessly clean and well presented. Ample room for our party of 6 to both spend time together or chill when prefer with the garden room a firm favourite. The birds eye view of fast jets navigating up the lake and beyond was a real bonus! Only real ask would be if the hot tub could be raised slightly allowing better views of the lake whilst sitting in it but icing on the cake of course! Only gripe relates to Sykes and the astronomical price increases year on year!
-
"Thank you enormously for hosting a 50th Wedding Anniversary with three generations in tow."
What a magnificent setting and base to explore, to ear, to stomp over a few hills, to lie in the hot tub getting cooled by the drizzle – bubbles in hand – just perfect. The view from the window was really pretty but my favourite part of the house was the hot tub!
-
"Wonderful holiday home with super views especially from the hot tub!"
Welcome pack was outstanding – we’ll miss the views & the peace!
-
"What a fabulous birthday weekend."
Loved staying in Brantlea due to its location, facilities and general feel. Simon was great, with information about places to walk, eat, swim etc. The house suited both generations of the family, something for everyone! Thank you for the hamper and the fizz, started the celebrations off beautifully!
-
"Endorse all the previous excellent comments – location, location, location"
-
"Fantastic birthday weekend!"
Loved everything, especially all the suggested walks, welcome pack was a lovely addition.
-
"Beautiful house, everything was thought of & we enjoyed every moment of our stay."
Perfect location & stunning views – we have been thoroughly spoilt! Simon was a great host despite us locking ourselves out of the house. On hand with great advice on local walks & eateries. We were a party of 7 plus a dog & we were all catered for perfectly. The welcome pack was a lovely touch – we struck lucky with this house. Thank you for everything! From the Isle of Man clan!
-
"Lovely house – perfect situation + location."
Fab stay
-
"Simon was a great host answering all queries quickly."
House is lovely and welcome pack a really nice touch. Location is ideal, close enough to walk but far enough to take in the peace and quiet. Loved the open plan and outside space as great for game playing and socialising. Would recommend the walk to Castle Wray from Hawkshead, visiting Cathedral Cave and kayaking on the lake. Thanks so much.
-
"We had an amazing stay, house was in a great location, just 5 mins walk from the village."
It has everything you need, clutter free, spotlessly clean and plenty of space for the 8 of us. Hot tub was lovely with great views. Host was helpful & very friendly and was close by if you needed anything. Would definitely book again.
-
"Wow wow wow Brantlea is the most beautiful stunning home - it is immaculate and every detail has been thought through with care."
The open plan living area is so good to allow everyone to feel they are together but not on top of one another. The kitchen is huge and has everything you would need. Oven/Grill immaculate and fridge freezer huge - great for stocking up. Lounge has fab corner settee and 2 individual recliners chairs Bedrooms are all amazing- 2 on the ground floor and 2 on the upper living level - bathrooms huge, warm underfloor heating and towels lovely. Utility room handy and well equipped. The views from the hot tub are fabulous towards the lake and the summer house next to the hot tub a great bonus. Garden although steep very well kept and dog safe. Simon has been a wonderful host, offered lots of advice of restaurants etc and responds so quickly. The only downside to Brantlea is having to leave it - we will definitely return - it’s worth every penny. Thank you Simon
-
"Stayed with a pet."
Simply one of the best Airbnb we have stayed at. Spotlessly clean, light and airy, fantastic views and every attention to detail you could think of! Thank you for the lovely welcome basket too!

"The photos do not do it justice!"
An outstanding property just a 10 minute walk from the centre of Bowness. Accessible via a steep hill so not for the faint hearted but the views are breath taking so worth it. The house was spotlessly clean and very well equipped, with a welcome hamper which was a nice touch. Simon was very welcoming and helpful, all in all an amazing experience.
-

The property had everything and more than you could ask for. It was nice to go away and stay somewhere as nice as your home.

"We had a lovely 4 nights at Brantlea with 3 generations of family."
The house is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean and in stunning surroundings. We enjoyed the walks straight from the house, the drives out and lovely family mealtimes and drinks in the spacious dining area and lounge. A real home from home and a very memorable stay.
-
"Simon’s place was immaculate and exceeded all expectations."
Very roomy, with everything we needed for our group holiday. An amazing location, near brilliant dog friendly restaurants, walks and pubs. Simon was very welcoming and was quick to respond to any queries. Some core memories made in an incredible home. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

"A unique, beautiful property with fantastic views of Windermere and surrounding hills."
Spacious and tastefully decorated inside. Check in, House Rules, and check out instructions were clear and helpful, and presented neatly in a tidy folder, alongside detailed additional information on surrounding areas and activities. We also appreciated the generous welcome hamper. Simon was a fantastic host and made sure we had everything we needed. He was always friendly and very responsive to messages and calls.

Top marks in all areas and a massive thank you for a lovely stay in a gorgeous property!

"Arrived at Simons place on Monday afternoon."
lock box clearly visible. The house has a large open plan on the upper floor with private bedrooms on both floors. An extremely well equipped kitchen and utility room com0lete with washer and dishwasher caps. The hot tub is at the top of a steep garden which has a well kept and lighted pathway making it easily accessible. just next to the hot tub is a lovely summerhouse which will be great during the summer months. Overall this house exceeded our expectations and we will hopefully be back.

There was a lot of snow when we arrived but he’d worked hard to make sure the drive and property was accessible and the hot tub was fully operational!

"We had an amazing family stay at Brantlea."
Anything we could’ve possibly needed had been thought of and was in the house. The safety gates for our baby was a life saver who had just started to crawl. The welcome box was amazing and a nice surprise, full of local produce and the dog treats made our four legged friends very happy. The house was clean, comfortable and warm. Amazing views from the kitchen and hot tub. It was a short walk to Bowness which had plenty of amenities, nice shops and restaurants with the Cornish pasty shop being a much loved family favourite. We all agreed we would definitely stay again.

-
"Thank you for another wonderful holiday at beautiful Brantlea!"
Everything has been perfect and spotlessly clean!
-
"The property was exceptionally clean and the decor was to the highest standard seen with a fully stocked kitchen of equipment and multiple fridges."
The steep garden won’t appeal to everyone but the view and the hot tub facilities at the top are definitely worth it. The property is in a quiet position at the end of a cul de sac so benefits from no passing traffic . We had a fantastic stay.
-

The house is extremely well equipped & beautifully presented. The hot tub added a lovely touch & was enjoyed by all the family. Thanks to the owner who ensured we had everything we needed - right down to the Xmas tree. It was a special way to spend a week over Christmas & we would love to return.
-
"We had a very wet week in the Lakes, and with a dog that was recovering from major surgery, we couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay for some R&R."
Everything had been thoroughly considered and nothing overlooked. The only thing that didn’t suit us this time was all of the garden area was on a step slope with steep steps. Without a “wonky” dog though, that would’ve been fine.
-

House facilities perfect, memorable views and great weather. Brantlea is now our favourite lakes place to stay. Thanks to Simon for welcome and goodie box. Great Experience; hope to come back!

The welcome box was a lovely touch. The house is spotlessly clean and so comfortable. You have thought of everything.

Thank you so much - we hope to be back soon.
