Set at the foot of the Kirkstone Pass near Brotherswater and Ullswater, The Brotherswater Inn offers seven en-suite twin or double rooms with patios, mountain views, wardrobes, flat-screen TVs, and free WiFi. Guests can dine on locally sourced dishes at the on-site restaurant, which serves generous portions and a wide selection of whiskies and ales. The Inn's three large picture windows frame views of Dove Crag, Fairfield, and surrounding fells, while the Sykeside Camping Park adjacent to the property provides additional accommodation options, including camping pods and bunkhouses. Hiking trails like the Caudale Beck walk and routes to High Street begin directly from the site, with landmarks such as St Sunday Crag and Angletarn Pikes within 4 km.

Rooms include patios with mountain views, flat-screen TVs, and free WiFi.
Direct access to hiking trails, including the Kirkstone Pass and routes around Brotherswater.

“Nestled amid rolling hills, this inn strikes me as a restful base, particularly convenient to reach walks and nature; add to this that the staff are amiable and that the food won't disappoint. A clean room with mountain views; I find it a winning combination.”
