The Brown Horse was a lovely place to spend a couple of nights while our family of three explored the local area. The room was a good size, with a modern ensuite bathroom. It was pretty clean, although some of the fabrics could do with a good dust as I couldn't stop sneezing. The bed could have been more comfortable as it was quite firm, but perhaps that's just a preference. The food was top notch. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast both mornings, which you're asked to preorder the evening before. We also ate dinner one evening and it was delicious. There is a play area for children to enjoy, with benches for adults to relax while supervising the children.
We’ve never been to this area of Cumbria. We normally stay around towns. The Inn is very rural but it is easy to get to Bowness on Windermere by car. Our room was lovey and clean, the bed was comfortable, the shower was great, the views were amazing and the staff were friendly and polite.
Gorgeous hotel really friendly the only downside for me was the hard pillows but that’s personal preference. Food in the bar was outstanding as was breakfast which was fresh. Will be back again in the summer!
