Brooklands Guest House

This is a wonderful place to stay--convenient to the train station and the center of town, but in a quiet area. We stayed twice, before and after hiking in the Lakes District, and stayed in two different rooms. The beds are very comfortable, and both rooms had space for us to spread out. Tip: when it's really hot, the lower floors are cooler! Breakfast is great; we only got the continental, but it comes with porridge or overnight oats, and the menu for full breakfast looked fantastic and Sue cooks to order. And her fruit buffet can't be beat! Sue is a great host, and while she maintains a very clean place, she warmly accommodates bikers and hikers who arrive in less-than-clean condition (even a little early), and she has a place to store bikes and dry their shoes, etc.--this seems like a great place for the Coast-to-Coast riders to stop.

This is a great place to stay! The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was large compared to many places we’ve stayed at, it is a very quiet neighborhood yet an easy walk to town, and the breakfast is excellent! We only got the continental breakfast (which can come with porridge or overnight oats), but Sue puts out a gorgeous fruit bar with yogurt and a variety of other toppings that we feasted on (her hot breakfast menu looks awfully good too). We look forward to our return there after several days in the Lakes District. It was very easy to come and go, and there’s a convenient laundromat just up the street if you’re in need.

We only had a short stay and recieved a really warm welcome! The property is beautifully maintained with many elegant touches.The breakfast was delicious and well presented.Our room was very comfortable and with everything we needed .Would highly recommend a stay here.

This B&B is fantastic. Our Host’s attention to detail was unparalleled. They were both gracious and informative. In summary, this was a truly special, wonderful B&B experience! You owe it to yourself to stay here.
