Me and my boyfriend stayed 2 nights at this hotel... The hotel is situated about a 15 min walk from bowness... I probably wouldn't recommend if you have trouble with mobility unless you are happy to drive or order a taxi... The room we had (3) was a family room... It was clean and tidy and well presented... The bathroom... More

Stayed here for one night on a visit to Bowness on Windermere, Booklands is located just on the outskirts of the town, not far from the lake and small car ferry. We were greeted by the owner, Karen,who showed us to a lovely clean room, the bed was oh so comfy. Homemade flapjack a lovely touch with you tea and... More

Very friendly, clean and good food that is cooked to order rather than pre cooked.. Karen and Andy know all about the local area. We had a great time and felt very welcome. The Guest house is situated in a beautiful part of the lake district.

A very comfortable place to stay. Karen and Andy were very helpful with their knowledge of the area and the many interesting places to go. The breakfasts are wonderful. The guest house is situated in an ideal position. We would recommend it and will be going again.

Brooklands is a small, friendly home from home guest house. Karen and Andy Brafield are the owners and have a wealth of local knowledge that they are only too willing to share. Andy, an experienced and accomplished fly fisherman, is always available to talk fishing and knows the local trout waters very well indeed. If you love the Lakes and... More

Just came back from a weekend trip to the Lake District with my family. This place is just so lovely! Rooms were just enough for the 3 of us with our dog. The location is just so perfect as it is not so far from the town centre & yet so peaceful. There is also lots of perfect sceneries if... More

I have just returned from a 3 night stay at Brooklands, I travelled alone with my dog and can quite honestly say that Karen made us both feel so welcome we really didn't want to leave! The best thing about this B&B is its location - you are around 15-20 mins walk from town or 10 mins down the hill... More

Booked 3 rooms for a weekend stay. Very comfortable, all rooms had small ensuites decor could do with a bit of an update. We found the owners friendly and helpful and really enjoyed the breakfast - great start to the day. Good location slightly out of Bowness which was very busy. Would definitely stay here again as we found it... More

A cramped room for a family of 4 once the fold-out bed took the last bit of floor space. Generally feels a bit tired - the rooms need refurbishing. Breakfast was fine and it was nice to be apart from the crowds in town, but the longish walk in was a bit tricky for little kids due to the narrow... More
