We stayed at Briardene for three nights in January as it was my 40th birthday. Sam and David are excellent hosts and have paid great attention to detail in the furnishing of their home. We had booked the Victorian room, but the four-poster room was empty so we were given a free upgrade on arrival. The room was very spacious,... More

Thanks to a cancellation we were able to stay again at this lovely bed and breakfast in the heart of windemere. It's location is fantastic for walking into Windemere and Bowness. We have previously stayed in the Attic Room and this time the Victorian Room. The rooms are all spotless and perfectly decorated. Sam and David are lovely hosts and... More

Stayed at Briardene whilst attending a wedding nearby (rooms slightly dear at hotel where wedding taking place). I am so glad we did - there were many wedding guests jealous of our excellent find. The rooms were spotless with everything in, and more, that you need. I think the little extras made it extra special - like bottled water, mint... More

We have just had 5 nights at the Briardene Guest House and would recommend it to anyone! Sam welcomed us on our arrival, showed us to the attic room (yes, narrow stairs as in someone else's review however there is a heavy wooden chest of drawers in the room so not that narrow!). She gave us lots of information about... More

We had a lovely three days at Briardene and would recommend it to anyone. Rooms comfy, nice shower, wine, coffee and biscuits in the room and a breakfast selection (and quality) that would rival anywhere we have been. As first time visitors to the area we got some great advice too from Sam & David. More
