The driveway up to the hotel lets it down badly, there's loads potholes and some scattered litter at the entrance. Lovely well kept gardens and in a very quiet peaceful picturesque setting.

We have stayed before at the Brierywood, and also at the sister hotels the Cragwood and the Merewood. We have never had cause for complain. Staff are always friendly and attentive. Will be staying again.Hotel is handy for access to Ambleside, Windermere and Bowness for great choice of places to eat if you wish to on an evening. Even though meals at the hotel is excellent. I love the cooked breakfasts.

The hotel was beautiful and friendly. The staff were kind but their abilities in terms of the quality of service were lacking we were served flat champagne in a wine glass. After the main course we ordered 2 VSOP cognacs and 2 coffees. This order was repeated back to us by the waiter sadly 2 French coffees were delivered. On complaint, we were given the French coffees foc. Sad that the staff didn’t have the those necessary skill, as they were otherwise efficient and friendly.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, staff are brilliant, so attentive to both us and our French Bulldog, nothing was too much trouble. Food was reasonable and really tasty. Garden rooms with a door directly from the bedroom to the garden is a massive plus Will definitely be back
