Nanny Brow is a luxury five star B&B in the heart of The Lake District. This charming country house sits majestically on its own private crag just west of Ambleside, with unrivaled views down the River Brathay to the Lakeland Fells beyond. We have direct Fell side access for walkers and are minutes away from the stunning scenery of the Langdale Valley.
As a luxury Bed and Breakfast in The Lake District, we have sought to combine the relaxing air of a family home with excellent levels of comfort and service. Many of the original Arts and Crafts features have been retained and complemented with antique furniture, contemporary fabrics, as well as modern touches. You will find our accommodation spotlessly clean, warm and spacious, with friendly service to boot. Add to that, we provide you with an award winning breakfast, which is just a few of the reasons why we have been awarded 5 gold stars by the AA and Winners of Guest Accommodation of the Year for 2017 to 2018 from the AA.
Come join us and let us help you unwind…
