Bed and Breakfast Description

 

A family run lakeland Guest house providing bed & breakfast accommodation in Windermere, Lake District. Situated in a quite peaceful area we offer a high standard of comfort with a warm friendly atmosphere. For the comfort and safety of our guests, Briardene Guest House is exclusively Non-smoking.

Briardene Guest House is a traditional Lakeland stone house built in 1888 and full of Victorian charm and character. Many of its original features have been retained, such as the elegant pitch pine staircase, stained glass windows, and coving. For the comfort of our guests Briardene Guest House has double glazed sash windows with all rooms having controlled heating to allow you to determine the temperature. We pride ourselves on attention to detail and cleanliness, while you will find all the accommodation tastefully & comfortably decorated.

We have Standard double rooms, Superior doubles with King-size or Super King-size beds and Superior Twins, and all these rooms have en-suite shower facilities. Our Deluxe attic room offers that something a little extra with Victorian brass King-size bed, sitting area with 2 armchairs, larger TV, fridge, iron & ironing board, bathrobes, extra towels and an en-suite bathrooom including seperate shower.

All our bedrooms are en-suite with each having a remote controlled colour television, hair dryer, radio/alarm clock and tea/coffee making facilities. Complimentary biscuits, hot chocolate, local Lakeland bottled water and Kendal mint cake are also provided along with fresh towels, toiletries and even hot water bottles for those chilly Lakeland nights. Some of the rooms overlook the library park while others offer distant views of the surrounding mountains.

Our regular guests appreciate the quiet, relaxed atmosphere at Briardene and we endeavour to continue this at all times. That's why we do not have the facilities to accept children and group bookings and we also request no entry to the building after 12.00 at night.

 

Windermere Attractions

 
The town of Windermere grew around the railway station. The village was originally called Birthwaites, but the railway company decided to call the station after the lake.

Windermere is central for a wide range of activities. For keen cyclists and ramblers alike there is a network of cycle paths, bridleways and forest trails. As well as the countless fells to be conquered there are several famous walks both for the novice and expert which provide panoramic views of the beautiful Lake District. One of the most popular walks from Windermere is the walk to Orrest Head. The view from the top above Windermere was the one that inspired A. Wainwright, author of the famous guide books in the 1930's, to explore the Lake District fells. For more leisure walks, there are numerous lakeside paths. The lakes also provide excellent water activities from a gentle sail to a speed boat ride on Windermere.

 

B&B Location

 
Windermere is ideally located as a centre for either touring the enchanting scenery of the Lake District or for a brief stay to give a taste of the area whilst touring Britain. It is approximately 25 mins drive from Junction 36 off the M6 motorway and has an excellent branch-line connection from the West coast main rail line.

Windermere can be reached by train from the main London-Glasgow Intercity line. This is as far into the Lakes as the rail service goes for Wordsworth himself strongly opposed its development any further.

We are centrally located in Windermere, close to shops, restaurants and public houses. We are also only 10 mins from the railway & bus station. Bowness is only a 20 minute walk away and is situated on the shores of Lake Windermere. This is the largest of the lakes and stretches for ten miles from Lakeside in the south to Waterhead in the north.

Nearest Public House/Bar: In village  (5  Minutes Walk)
