Company information

The Brathay Hall estate provides amazing lake views, with comfortable double, twin and single en-suite rooms. Located close to Ambleside town centre (1.3 miles Via A593) Free parking onsite is available to all guests throughout their stay. Brathay Trust is a Children and Young People Charity, every penny you spend helps support more children and young people in need! Brathay gives you everything you need for a well-deserved break that will get you away from it all and boost your wellbeing and will support the trust.

Property information

As staycations go, you’d struggle to find a more ideal setting. Brathay is at the epicentre of all the exciting attractions and outdoor adventures the Lake District has to offer, yet we are tucked away, surrounded by the beautiful mountain views that have inspired our most famous poets and artists for centuries, with our own ancient woodlands and private lake access. At the heart of the estate is Brathay Hall, an impressive Georgian country house where we have a choice of en-suite accommodation. We believe our accommodation takes some beating, not just for its central location just minutes from the shops, restaurants and bars in Ambleside, but also for its affordability and flexibility. We want all our guests to enjoy a peaceful, relaxed and comfortable stay. We have en-suite rooms in Brathay Hall itself and in attractive Swiss-style lodges scattered around the estate. All rooms are en-suite and offer views to die for, either overlooking the grounds and lake, within the woods, or towards the fells that sit as a stunning backdrop to picturesque Ambleside.
