Find the Best Shap Bed and Breakfast

"Our second year visiting. Wonderful husband and wife team who cook and serve us breakfast and I imagine do all the cleaning. I do not know who owns or manages this hotel, but perhaps it is time for the owner to look at certain things in the bedroom (bathroom blind, vanity stool) to be refreshed, and some repainting. The sunroom at the front of the hotel seems to be used as a storage unit which is a great waste of a nice sitting spot. The breakfasts are excellent again due to the husband...

"We really enjoyed our stay thank you. Great room and very friendly staff near and tidy place. Would have liked a fruit or yogurt option at breakfasts with the continential selection, cooked breakfast was very tasty. "

"Amazing stay, very friendly staff, beautiful accommodation. Very clean. Breakfast was amazing, the best breakfast we have ever had, good quality ingredients. Lovely homemade complementary cake as well."

"Brathay Lodge makes for a very comfortable and convenient stay in the Lake District. The room was modern and well-maintained and the staff friendly and considerate. There is a parking fee (unless booked direct) but you’d have to pay elsewhere anyway. If you have an electric car it’s a good idea to let them know in advance so you can use their reasonably-priced ProjectEV charger. The continental breakfast was fresh and varied and set us up for the day. Would definitely stay there again. "

"Most enjoyable stay staff friendly and helpful. "

"The price is the best part. No bar or restaurant but cheap, clean and modern."

"I booked this last minute and so glad I came across it. Booked King but got free upgrade to large King. Everything excellent, very comfortable, quiet, clean, plenty of extras in room including bottled milk in fridge, two bottles water, cotton wool and buds as well as the usual shower gel, shampoo, conditior soap, and an extra nice touch wine glasses in room. Host very friendly and informative, folder provided with lots of information on local area. Mini bar with honesty box available in lounge....

"Room was immaculate and spacious. I was worried about parking but it wasn’t a problem as I was able to get a space outside the front, and the back if I wanted. If you need to check in later than 8/9pm it isn’t a problem; just give them a call and they’ll arrange it with you. Breakfast was decent too! The only negative (a very minor point) is that the shower head appeared to have brewer’s droop! Other than that it was fabulous. I would definitely stay again. "

"We absolutely loved it. The room is a good size, light and comfortable. It has everything we needed and it was clean. Bathroom was nice and clean too. Outstanding service and breakfast. We will come to stay again."

"Cozy and warm place to stay. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The food is great too. It takes twenty minutes to get to the railway station. Highly recommend. "

"Lovely stay at Crow Howe ,we look forward to returning in November "

"I'd change the breakfast system a bit! 39 characters not enough to explain!"

"Perfect location to visit the Lakes District without a car. Walking distance to Bowness and the lake, the village of Windermere, the train station and the bus stop."

"Our host was very gracious and welcoming. The room was large and very comfortable. We loved how close it was to the train station and restaurants. It was easy to start long hikes in the area. Highly recommended!"

"It was just an amazing B&B. The owner is wonderful and the breakfast was fabulous. I will definately stay there the next time I am anywhere near."

"Relaxing atmosphere, very welcoming and accommodating ( I got an upgraded room and breakfast timings changed to suit me) beautiful spacious room. Everything you could possibly need available well stocked mini bar. "

"We had a great stay here! The property was clean and had everything we needed (hoover, toaster, cutlery etc). It was nice and warm too. Very comfortable bed (no footboard so great for taller guests too). Very pleasant and helpful staff at reception and easy to check in/out. Location is great - walkable into the village, with safe parking outside the property. There is a bar next to the site and I was worried about the noise but we couldn't hear a thing from inside the property so had a great,...
