I am just home from my fifth visit to the Brandelhow B&B (arrived at their door weary at 11pm on a Friday night in April 2006, after a 7 hour car journey with an 8yr old, 6yr old and a 8mth old - go figure how much I needed a friendly face and a comfy bed!). I absolutely love it,... more

Myself and my colleagues, who are professional Veterinarians from all over Europe, regularly travel to work in the Penrith area. We have stayed at a number of guest houses, but the Brandelhow guest house stands alone for its high quality of service and standards.

We had... more

After struggling to find accomodation for under £100 for the night in the Lakes I didn't have very high expectations for a place that only charges £60 per night. However the Brandelhow was suprisingly good. On arrival we were offered a pot of tea straightway and a selection of cakes arrived as well, which was very welcome on a cold... more

Brandelhow Guest House in Penrith: I stayed there in the spring and had a terrible time. The owners were rude and had considerable attitude towards my simple request for a gluten free meal (which they adverstised on their website as catered-for: the entire reason why I stayed there). I received a call on the house telephone for no longer than... more
