Brantlea

We had a fantastic stay at Brantlea in the Bowness on Windermere, Lake District!

The property was spotless, spacious, and extremely comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing break. The welcome pack was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel at home right away. The location is perfect – just a short walk to the hustle and bustle of town, yet tucked away in a peaceful area with beautiful views and lovely walks right on the doorstep. The amenities were excellent, and we especially loved the hot tub and the charming summer house. Clear instructions made everything easy to use, and it was obvious how much care goes into keeping the property to such a high standard. If we had one suggestion, it would be to add a roof or some form of cover over the hot tub – that way we could enjoy it even more often, no matter the weather. Overall, this was a wonderful stay, and we can’t recommend Brantlea highly enough. We’re already looking forward to returning!

Everything about Brantlea is amazing from the views from the hot tub to the shoe boxes at the front door.

Absolutely everything had been thought of and we found nothing lacking. We would definitely recommend this huose. A big thankyou to Simon and Lydia for allowing us to make Brantlea our home for a week.

Wonderful property in a fantastic location for the restaurants, shops & bars of Bowness.

The house was spotless on arrival, we’ve stayed in many properties and Brantlea was absolutely 5 stars. The welcome pack on arrival was a lovely gesture. Highly recommended, perfect for our party of 7 adults & a dog. Anyone thinking of booking this property, then do it! We were very sad to leave!

We enjoyed a wonderful family break in Brantlea.

The property was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub, the outside eating space and the panoramic view from the dining area. Would readily recommend as a lovely place to stay.

A great house and location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

One of the best houses we’ve rented!

The quality of finish to the rooms and interior was excellent. Everything was very clean and the facilities were well thought to make our stay as comfortable as possible and a home from home. A lovely welcome hamper made a great start to the stay and a visit from Simon (the owner) to show us around the house on our arrival was thoughtful. Great location as well!

Fabulous stay friendly and helpful owner.

Perfect location will definitely stay again!

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

An amazing weekend in a beautiful location in a beautiful home, we have created memories as a family to last a lifetime, our weekend completely exceeded our expectations and we loved every second.

Thankyou

Fantastic property, house is lovely and caters for everything you might need.

We had a great weekend, great location for shops, bars, restaurants.

A beautiful property in a beautiful location.

Spacious property meaning everyone can eat and socialise together. Hot tub with stunning views an added bonus. Lovely welcome box of goodies very much appreciated. Will definitely come again!

A fabulous house in a superb location , very clean with all the home comforts you could need.

Beautiful house with everything we needed for our stay, excellent location just 5mins walk into Bowness.

Would defo recommend

Had a fantastic stay at the beautiful Brantlea.

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.

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!

A wonderful property in an ideal location to visit the lakes.

A short walk from Bowness was great for visiting the local pubs, cafes and shops. The house itself was perfect for 8 adults with everything you could need and with amazing views of the lakes. Couldn't recommend Brantlea enough and hope to return there soon

Lovely home, absolutely spotless, fantastic views from the Lounge and especially the Jacuzzi and summer room area.

Location also excellent, with 5 mins walk into Bowness Centre, although very steep access drive leading up to the property especially with a pram and small children Overall, excellent home & excellent stay

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.

Brantlea is a lovely property in a fantastic location.

We loved staying there.

This property is first class.

..everything you need and more..it is very well maintained and stocked with crockery..cutlery...kitchen appliances galore. ....we stayed with our family for a week in April..it is very close to the town with bars and restaurants. It is a very spacious property, there were 7 of us, a dog and twin babies and it was just fabulous !! If your family want a break to rhe Lake district I would recommend Brantlea very highly. Can't wait to return

Gorgeous stay!

!! Thank you so much!!! X

Wow such a gorgeous property with fantastic views.

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.

Fantastic stay - space, comfort and perfect setting Jacuzzi was a very welcome bonus as was Simon’s time and welcome - highly reommended.

What a property, we couldnt fault it at all.

Location was perfect for the family and local faciltiies. The house was spotless and they had everything we needed. An issue with the hot tub was resolved in 2 hours - amazing service. Thank you The Sturrocks and Fletchers

Fantastic holiday home, could not fault it.

Absolutely fabulous property with all the facilities you could wish for.

Great location too. The property was immaculate. Plenty of space both inside and outside for up to 8 guests. The views from the hot tub are truly amazing. The property owners are extremely helpful and their proximity to the property is very useful.

Really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful house and surroundings. Lovely warm welcome, and the welcome box was fab!! 5*s for the cleanliness of the houe. We will definitley be back. Thankyou. The Green's, Nearney's + Begbie

The house is lovely and in such beautiful surroundings. Thank you for the goodies, a really lovely touch and very much appreciated. Look forward to coming again. Thank you.

We are delighted to be the second guest group to stay at Brantlea.

We all enjoyed so much; actually nothing to complain at all! Is well equipped and spotless clean. The welcome gifts give us a warm touch of local taste! We have a lovely memorable stay in the past for 5 days and we are thinking about to coming back shortly! Thanks so much for Simon's hospitality!

We have stayed in the lakes many times and this is by far the best accommodation we have experienced.

Great location and we were so fortunate with the weather which allowed us to make full use of the outside facilities. Loved the space, light and views. All in all a 5 star experience. We'll be back

Had a great family weekend at Brantlea.

Beautiful house, views and felt very welcome. Would definitely recommend.

What a fabulous home you have.

We have had an exceptional time here in the Lakes. We will definitely be staying with you next time with friends and family. Thank you so much for making our stay so special. Warmest wishes

This is, by far, the best holiday home we have stayed in.

The welcome box was a lovely touch. The house is spotlessly clean and so comfortable. You have thought of everything. When we did tear ourselves away from the beautiful house - just for a short walk + we're in Bowness with all the shops, bars + restaurants and of course Lake Windermere. Thank you so much - we hope to be back soon.

What a fantastic holiday home!

It was spotlessly clean, everything you could wish for a perfect stay - loved the welcome box - a lovely touch! A very friendly welcome on arrival, it is such a comfortable home. Thank you. The Craft Family

It has been the perfect stay for our family. We hope to return very soon! It’s lovely to come back to a place that feels like home after a day of adventure!

Can we say much more than that. We get together rarely and for remembrance and having accommodation like this just rounds the weekend off excellently! Thanks

Ideal location and amazing views from the hot tub. We wish we brought more guests along to enjoy this lovely home.

Thank you!

What a lovely stay at Brantlea.

The house was very clean and cosy and had everything we needed and more! The lake views from the hot tub were stunning. Location was great with a short walk to the village of Bowness. Simon was very helpful and gave us great suggestions, we will definitely be back again soon!

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.

Loved every minute of our trip.

The location of the house is great and private, just a couple minutes walk into town. We had plenty of space for the 4 of us and the facilities catered to all our needs and more. Simon was a great host with lots of useful suggestions and tips for the surrounding areas. Hope to stay here again in the future!

Thank you for a fabulous stay to celebrate my husband’s 50th, lovely to see so much snow but due to this had to cut the weekend short which we were all very sad about!

Thank you so much for the welcome pack - a lovely touch. Hopefully we will be back as amazing house, location, views etc and you to the owner for helping us to get out in the snow!

lovely house, very roomy and airy and light.

lovely views and everything we needed for our short holiday

Simon is a fabulous host and his house is outstanding.

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! The views from the property are spectacular, and the house is spotless and well equipped. We all loved it, including the dogs! Can’t wait to come back. Thank you Simon!

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.

Thank you for a fantastic stay!

Had a very pleasant & relaxing stay at Brantlea. The view is amazing and the hospitality is superb. Thank you for the box of happiness! Ps really enjoyed the hot tub

Our second stay and once again we’ve had an amazing time!

! Spotlessly clean as usual. Best views ever from the hot tub. Thank you for the amazing hamper which was very welcome. Weather could have been better but it is expected in Cumbria. Not looking forward to leaving but we will be back !!!

A fabulous time in a fabulous house.

Thank you for the hamper and the prompt response to minor issues. We have not le the weather hold us back but it has been very damp… not as bad as Nottingham though! A great way to see in the New Year with friends of almost 40 years!

We have had a wonderful time in a fabulous house.

Thank you for the hamper it was a lovely gift. Sadly one couple in our party could not make it so we were 2 people and a day down but the house was a great size. The weather was crisp and very cold but as ever the area did not let us down. Fabulous views. Thank you

Amazing will be back next year

Wonderful weekend away and the house is fantastic.

Had so much fun in the Hot Tub after long wet and windy days exploring. Simon was very accommodating with everything we asked for. Would definitely recommend his beautiful house to friends

What a great place to stay.

Eight of us stayed here over New Year and it was perfect. Just a 5 minute walk into Bowness where you can find lovely pubs, restaurants and shops. Hot tub views are amazing. Nothing too much trouble for Simon, lovely guy.

Thank you for making my birthday weekend so special.

Despite the weather we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the Lake District. Your house is delightful and we all had such a laugh in the hob tub in the wind and rain. Many thanks and will highly recommend your wonderful house to our friends

Thank you for a lovely stay!

House amazing, love the hot tub. Beds so comfortable, will be back

Thank you for a lovely stay!

We celebrated a 21st Birthday here and it was the perfect venue! Loved the location and the hot tub very comfortable too!

Definitely would go back.

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.

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.

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.

This property is outstanding.

It has great views of lake Windermere and is only 5 mins walk into Bowness. There property had everything you need and owner is on hand if you have any issues. We had a very relaxing stay in this great property.

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. Chatting with him before we left was quite pleasant and made it clear he is a considerate, enthusiastic host who aims to deliver a top tier experience for all his guests. Top marks in all areas and a massive thank you for a lovely stay in a gorgeous property!

Just would like to say thank you all for a lovely stay in a beautiful house with beautiful views.

We would highly recommend!! Would love to come back 1 day. Everything was great including hot tub – what a view!

Wow, what can I say!

Fantastic house with amazing views especially from the hot tub. Spotlessly clean, decorated to a very high standard. Everything you need cannot fault it. The welcome pack was lovely. Simon was very welcoming & helpful. Don’t want to leave but will defiantly be back.

What a great house, lovely views, spotlessly clean thank goodness, everything there you can think of, love the hot tub, we had a great time & blessed with the weather.

The welcome pack was a lovely surprise too.

Our stay here was just perfect!

From the location to the house itself, and communicating with the host - everything was seamless and better than we could have hoped for! We will definitely be returning!

Stayed with kids.

We had a fantastic stay. The house was amazing, spotlessly clean and stylishly furnished. It exceeded all expectations. My kids enjoyed the Jacuzzi a lot and we had a great time of having barbecue outdoors. Simon is an excellent host and always responsive to messages. He made sure we had everything that we needed and it was nice to receive the welcome hamper when we got there. Highly recommend and definitely will stay here again next time.

We loved our stay at Simon's place and he was very helpful and friendly!

Would recommend to anyone!

Super comfortable beds and all rooms were pristine and well furnished. Great location in relation to the shops and beautiful lake, 10minute walk (at toddler speed

We had an amazing stay here, we couldn't have asked for more!

beautifully presented property, great quiet location, wonderful views over the lake, and a brilliantly accommodating host. Will definitely be back! Highly recommend!

Fantastic place, location is beautiful

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! ( even doggie treats included) We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend, we booked another stay before ending this one!

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

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.

Lovely house – perfect situation + location.

Fab stay

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!

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.

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!

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!

Thank you for a lovely stay.

Great location, love the views. Very comfortable & well equipped house.

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!!

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.

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!

Lovely location, house very well laid out with plenty of space for everyone.

Welcome pack was very thoughtful and useful on arrival. Handy location and everyone a bit fitter after the walk back up the hill! Hot tub a bonus and well used.

Beautiful house with everything you could possibly need.

Fantastic location + walk into Bowness, lovely gesture having the welcome pack on arrival, thanks so much. Just the relaxing week we needed we needed, would love to stay again. Thanks.

The house was lovely even though the weather wasn’t.

Location was perfect and views were amazing and the house was A* for cleanliness. Immaculate job 10/10.

We had a fabulous long weekend, helped by couple of glorious days.

Superb house, very clean, very relaxing and near to everything. A lovely walk / run just at the back up to Brant Fell.

Robert Family September 2024 Guestbook Simon is a wonderful host.

Lots of little touches to make our stay extra special. Very clean accommodation - the hot tub was a touch of luxury after a long days hiking. The welcome pack was the best we've ever received. Would highly recommend - would definitely stay again.

Thank you for a good stay.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property.

The house is even better than it appears in the pictures and a lot of care and attention has been put into the house with lots of nice little finishing touches such as a the welcome hamper. Simon was a great host who has lots of good local recommendations. Would definitely look to rebook if we are back in the lakes. A real hidden gem.

We have just come back from an amazing stay at this beautiful house, it is very spacious, spotlessly clean and the beds are so comfy, it has everything you need for a relaxing stay.

There is a hot tub at the top of the garden with lovely views of the lake and surrounding hills. It is in a peaceful location with just a short walk to the shops and restaurants. Simon is a lovely host, nothing is too much trouble, I would definitely recommend a stay here

Lovely house, conveniently situated out of town but not too far to walk down to town, restaurants, pubs, harbour for boat trips and shops.

Walks straight from the house to the high spot for fantastic panorama of lake Windermere.

We all had the most amazing time.

The property is stunning. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We will 100% be returning.

Amazing stay.

The house has everything you need and more! The location is perfect. The hot tub is a great bonus and it's so peaceful. The house is huge and the bedrooms were amazing. Everything was really clean and fresh flowers were a lovely touch as well. Thank you!

Amazing house, photos do not do it justice.

Immaculate inside and outside. Everything you could need for a fabulous week or a few days. Home from Home, lovely setting and only a few mins into the village. Hot tub area is impressive, and amazing views. Simon is a fab host and nothing seems too much trouble for any advice on the area or house. He seems to have thought of everything. Thanks for a great few days. Would love to return. Do not hesitate to book, you will not be disappointed.

Great location, privacy but everything within a short walk.

The house is fabulous and very spacious. Hot tub was well used by the kids, while the welcome basket was a lovely touch with fizz chilling in the fridge. Will visit again!

I would definitely revisit and recommend10 Everything you could possibly need and more.

An amazing place to stay with a fantastic location.

Fantastic location, brilliant accommodation made the weekend perfect!

Beautiful property, exceptionally well equipped, homely and beautiful views especially from hot tub!

Thank you for an amazing weekend at Brantlea it has well and truly exceeded all of our expectations.

We have created so many memories as a family... until next time.

Arrived on 11th November and as soon as we opened the front door we were amazed by the beautiful interior.

We will definitely be back to visit again. Your home is amazing and the perfect setting for us all. My husband 70th birthday and our grandsons 11th birthday is today as we are leaving, we would have loved to stay longer.

Stayed here for 3 nights on the 14th, what a beautiful house with everything you need.

Had an amazing time with great views especially from the hot tub! Thank you

Came to celebrate my 30th as a surprise from my family.

The house and views are amazing. There is everything you need and more. We had a private chef come and cook for us one evening and it was incredible. The hot tub being at the top is just perfect with looking over Lake Windermere. Thank you for an amazing stay and we will hopefully be back soon.

Brantlea is a very well presented property in a great location close to the town.

Everything was as expected making for an enjoyable stay, we would definitely recommend this property. This time of year the area was not too busy despite the school half term holidays.

We had an amazing stay at Brantlea, this was to celebrate my husband's 70th birthday and grandsons 11th.

The house was absolutely amazing, a lovely welcome pack was left for us. I would highly recommend staying at this property, we will certainly be booking again

Simon was excellent at keeping me informed.

House location was brilliant. As soon as you enter house it's pure luxury, with amazing decor and furnishings. Well equipped Kitchen with hamper. Hot tub with summer house and plenty of seating. The views of Lake Windermere from here are spectacular. Exceeded our expectations and we will definitely return.

Absolutely found a perfect property with this one.

The 5* reviews were all spot on. The property was immaculate through out, clean, clutter free, rooms all beautifully decorated, fully equipped kitchen. Both our children have additional needs and severe sensory requirements, this property met all their needs and they have in fact stated that this was their favourite property that they have stayed in. I honestly can not rate this property high enough. We will certainly be rebooking.

Excellent property, very clean and comfortable, has everything you would need and more.

Close to the town. Owner very friendly and helpful.

We have had an amazing stay, the house was even more impressive than the pictures!

The views from the hot tub are spectacular, we were in it every day. It has been the most equipped house we've stayed in, the kitchen has everything you could think of! Thank you for a perfect week away before the Christmas chaos! Also to add my sons girlfried only went and booked the house we tried and failed to buy 16 years ago! What a treat. Fantastic week.

Great time had by all of us.

Beautiful property, giving us everything we need. Loving the lakes as always, hope to be back sometime. Thanks Simon for the loan of his beautiful house.

A great family New Year's stay for our daughters 30th Birthday.

It was nice to be greeted by Simon on our arrival for a tour & familiarisation of the house. The house is lovely with a great lay-out & finished to a very high quality I all respects! We found everything we needed to make our stay comfortable & home from home. We love the hot tub & views on the sunny days we were lucky to get. Thanks for the welcoming hamper! It was a pleasant surprise & lovely start to our stay.

This is a lovely hoe with excellent facilities.

We made lovely family memories and watched our beautiful baby take his first steps - never to be forgotten.

Thanks for a wonderful stay.

The facilities were perfect to make my sisters 30th birthday one to remember!

Brantlea is one of the nicest places we have had the pleasure of staying in, absolutely lovely property, not just the fabulous inside,the views from the summer house and hot tub are to die for, the brilliant walks around Bowness and the restaurants and bars are great and mainly dog friendly,

Great location.

The house has everything you could possibly need. Simon was a fantastic host.

This house has the wow factor.

Very peaceful and beautiful location yet only a 5 minute walk into Bowness. There is path right behind the house to get onto Brant Fell which we really liked. The kitchen has literally everything you could need. A lovely welcome hamper was a nice touch too. I would definitely stay here again.

Couldn't have asked for more.

We were excited from the house online but absolutely blew away upon arrival. Thank you Simon for the use of your home, we would love to book again and create more memories.

Wow, what a beautiful house and amazing views.

We have enjoyed every minute and look forward to returning. Many thanks.

Thanks to Simon for sharing this truly lovely home.

We have all had the most wonderful time & have made the most lovely, amazing memories. As always the Lakes brings us peace and calmness.

Simon, thank you for letting us use your beautiful house.

Amazing views, peaceful and just perfect in every way. My 50th Birthday with the ladies was fantastic! Many thanks

Wow, what a fabulous stay.

The house and views were stunning. The kitchen was very well equipped and the living room and bedrooms were very comfortable. Simon's communication was excellent; very responsive. He also left us a lovely welcome hamper which was much appreciated. Highly recommended.

Great location, accommodation was super clean and tidy.

Lots of space, dog friendly and amazing views. We had the most amazing relaxing stay. The hot tub at the end of a long walk looking out over Windermere was absolutely perfect. Great location for a number of walks and ten minute walk into Bowness. Photos don't do it justice.

Perfect house, amazing views and hope to come back soon.

Thank you.

Fantastic house that catered for all our needs and is in beautiful surroundings, I'm looking forward to staying here again soon.

Thank you so much!

I can't speak highly enough about our stay at Brantlea!

The communication upon booking was fantastic and that continued right through until we checked out. The property itself was stunning, by far the best property I have stayed in, you then add in the cleanliness, modernness and overall homeliness ofthe house, everything was just perfect! The lovely welcome pack too was a really nice touch too and you can tell real thought had been put into this! The location was a perfect balance of peace and quiet, whilst being conveniently close to local restaurants, shops, and anything you may need. If you're looking to stay here, I couldn't recommend it highly enough!

Simon was an exceptional host.

The accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and exactly as described. Simon s local recommendations enhanced our trip/ restaurant, and their prompt communication made everything seamless. Highly recommend staying here

We booked Simon's place for a family weekend to celebrate my Dad's 70th.

It was the perfect home from home for us, but with added luxury! It's a beautiful house with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Board games, kitchen utensils, plenty of towels - every last detail had been thought of, and didn't go unnoticed. Simon was flexible with check-in, and we were fortunate to meet him when we were leaving, to thank him for an amazing stay. The pictures don't quite do it justice - it's a stunning property, ideal location and views to die for. Won't hesitate to stay again. We got balloons delivered from a nearby company, and a supermarket shop delivery too. My nephews are 5 and 7, and my parents turning 70 - we all loved it - even the dog who's not quite 1! Book it - you'll not regret it!

Brantlea is a beautiful spacious high standard property with lovely views.

It is clean and warm with everything you need for a comfortable stay, and is just 10 mins walk to Bowness and the lakefront. The owner Simon was friendly and helpful and he kindly accommodated us with our arrival times. There was a lovely welcome pack waiting for us on our arrival and also a useful manual was left which had all the info we needed. We had a fabulous stay and would highly recommend! Thank you Simon

Thank you Simon, happy family memories shared and created in the most beautiful of homes.

Great time, great house and great weather.

Many thanks

An amazing house with spectacular views!

! Everything thought of to make the stay enjoyable, great location and hot tub hide away, very tranquil with spectacular views. Thank you Simon for the meet & greet and giving tips and suggestions for walks. We have made more great memories and laughs as friends and with the beautiful house this has been an enjoyable weekend. Thank you

The house is so much better than in the picture.

It has everything you need for a comfort stay. The terrace has gorgeous views for the sunset. The house is walkable to the village with plenty of restaurants and things to do and see. Hiking trail starts right outside the house. Jacuzzi was fantastic and located further up the hill behind the house with gorgeous lake views. We stayed with 2 years old child and she really enjoyed walking around the house up and down the steps. It is safely secured with stairs gates and has baby cot and high chair. Welcome basket with local produces was amazing:) thank you for having us!

Amazing property!

Has everything you need and ticks so many boxes for a group stay - nice and spacious with a bathroom for every bedroom, has a hot tub with incredible views and is in a great location, just a short walk to pubs and shops. Simon is a fantastic host who had good communication with us. This was my second time here and wouldn't hesitate to come back again. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Bowness!

Fabulous house in wonderful location!

Simon's place is fabulous.

Luxurious, with everything you could need. Such a short walk into Bowness but so peaceful too, and those views! We had the best family short break and didn't want to leave. Simon was a great host, start to finish.

The pictures do not do this location the justice it deserves!

Perfect house for 8 of us to celebrate three 50th Birthdays. A short walk into Bowness with lots to see and do, if walking though be mindful there are some inclines back up! The hot tub view was amazing and an added bonus to this house. Simon was a very attentive host, answered very quick to any queries in the lead up and also during our stay. All in all a fab long weekend, great house and location. Would definitely recommend!

A great house for a great break in the Lakes.

10 The property is in a great location, just a 10 minute walk from the centre of Bowness. There is a great view from the property looking out across the lake. The view is even better from the summer house / hot tub. The rooms were all spacious, wellequipped and very clean. The property worked extremely well for our party with an age range of 7 to 60+ and a dog. I would highly recommend a stay at Brantlea.

A fabulous multi-generational family holiday in a perfect location in a beautiful house.

Outstanding property, exceptional views. The accommodation was perfect for our family of 5. Plenty of together space for sitting or dining while plenty of space for everyone to get some peace. Simply stunning views from the hot tub. Easy walk to Bowness but very quiet and peaceful area. Unbeatable, frankly. For us it would be difficult to improve.

A very great place that comes as advertised.

Simon was very welcoming and super responsive. A well stocked kitchen and beautiful surroundings. We loved the place and had a great stay.

The house was set in a beautiful location.

Just a short walk to Bowness but very quiet and peaceful. Facilities were excellent, lovely hot tub, really comfy beds, views to die for. Everything felt luxurious. Simon the host was very helpful and even offered to post a lost ring back to us. The whole family really enjoyed our stay, and we would highly recommend this as a place to stay.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Simon’s place.

The location was perfect and the house was a home away from home. Highlight of the property was the hot tub with the most spectacular views of the lake. The house was extremely central and walkable to shops and restaurants. Simon was also extremely attentive and quick to respond to any questions we had. We’ll definitely be back!

Lovely house, great location and host was always very responsive.

Brilliant property and great host

Thank you for a really enjoyable stay.

We loved the spacious house and the hot tub, the amazing views. Also, the chance to spend quality time together. A gang who has been holidaying since 1971

We had an amazing four nights at Simon’s house.

An extremely peaceful location but close to the hustle and bustle of Bowness centre. All of the amenities we could have wished for. Looking forward to returning!

My wife and her friends had a most enjoyable and relaxing 4-night stay at Simons, who was friendly and helpful, lovely welcome pack, ideal location for exploring the area, walking distance to the town for restaurants -boat trips etc.

Enjoyed the lake views while chilling in the hot tub. Everything in the house is of a very high standard, hope to return again soon.

My friends and I loved our stay at this Airbnb, the house itself is very private but also close to all the local amenities making it easy to get around.

I will definitely be staying here again

Great location with stunning views.

Everything in the house is to a high standard. Simon is a great host, responds quickly and is helpful, even returned an item we had left behind

Perfect!

We absolutely loved staying there.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful house with us, on the run up to Christmas 25!

Simons spacious luxury holiday home is outstanding. Amazing hospitality from Simon throughout our family stay. Our best holiday in this area by far as regular visitors to Bowness on Windermere. Highly recommend to everyone. We have all loved out stay and will definitely be back. The property is extremely clean and in an amazing setting with incredible views. 5*s all round.

A stunning property furnished to a high end.

Perfect for a multi generation family visit. The living space was especially ideal as almost totally open plan. There was no external noise and the star gazing from the hot tub was so beautiful as there is little light pollution. Simon was a great host who responded to any questions swiftly and supplied a very nice welcome basket of treats and necessities. All creature comforts were covered and the beds were extremely comfortable We will definitely return to this beautiful 5 star property

Thank you for sharing your wonderful house with us.

The facilities exceeded our expectations and the views are amazing. We have created some wonderful Christmas 25 memories and will definitely return

Thank for a wonderful stay in your home, the views from here are amazing.

Beautiful house. We will be back
