Om boendet

Bronte School House: rymlig stuga med historia

Bronte School House är en vacker periodstuga med historia: det var den gamla Clergy Daughters 'School där Charlotte och Emily Brontë 1824-25 deltog och beskådades ökänt som "Lowood" i Jane Eyre. Fastigheten har nu restaurerats känsligt och bevarat den historiska karaktären och har även moderna bekvämligheter: kliv inifrån och du hittar snövitkalkade väggar, originella golvskivor och balkar, synliga stenhuggar och dämpade fönsterplatser. Fastigheten är välutrustad med allt du kan önska dig för en bekväm vistelse. Njut av att koppla av vid timmerbrännaren i det mysiga vardagsrummet eller ta ett långt blöt i det stora badkaret efter några dagar vandring innan du sjunker ner i den skarpa sänglinnen av vit bomull.

På soliga dagar kan du dra nytta av den vackra stora trädgården: äta utomhus i skuggan av ett träd och sedan njuta av att koppla av till ljudet i vattnet i Leck Beck med en efterlunchkaffe, eller kanske ett glas vin, medan barnen springa runt i trädgården och göra sina egna kul och spel.

Bronte School House ligger i en otroligt vacker del av världen perfekt för att utforska både Yorkshire Dales och Lake District National Parks. Området är också känt för sin gastronomi och är hem för ett avundsvärt val av restauranger, kaféer och barer. Med underbara promenader från tröskeln och många fler bara en kort bilresa bort om du gillar utomhus kan du inte låta bli förälskad i denna region. Kom och se själv - du blir inte besviken!

Outstanding property!

I stayed at this cottage for five weeks, and it was my favorite lodging of my entire 3-month trip in the UK. The owner, Sandra, has spent years painstakingly restoring this stunning heritage property that was almost in ruins when she bought it. The result is a lovely, tasteful, comfortable cottage that is steeped in literary history. If you are a fan of the Brontës, this is a must-stay place. My friend and I took turns reading passages from the novel “Jane Eyre” that described the cottage and gardens which were the basis for the Lowood School in the novel. It was truly a remarkable experience. The gardens here are gorgeous. Sandra has a lovely variety of roses, hydrangeas, peonies, and countless others that bloom at different times so you are assured of blooms anytime in the spring/summer. Also raspberries, currants, and gooseberries that ripen in July and make a lovely snack while sipping wine and reading in the garden. It is truly a tranquil botanical paradise. The property itself is very well located within a 3-minute drive of beautiful Kirkby Lonsdale, 10 minutes from the Yorkshire Dales mountainscapes, and 30 minutes to Ambleside and Grasmere in the Lake District. You will need private transportation as the bus system here is scattered and infrequent. And be aware that the property adjoins a major road so traffic noise can be heard, but if you are in the garden or house, it’s not a problem. I highly recommend booking a stay at the Brontë School Cottage. It was the highlight of my trip, and I hope to return soon!

Lovely comfortable house in wonderful location

We had an amazing 11 night stay at Bronte School House. The house itself was extremely comfortable with everything we needed. I enjoyed seeing all the old photographs dotted around the property too. The location of the property makes it perfect for exploring both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. We had some wonderful days out, our particular favourites were Bolton Abbey (the stepping stones were a big hit with my three daughters), steam boat on Coniston Water and Waterfall walk at Ingleton to name a few. Another huge hit were the ice creams from The Milking Parlour in Kirkby Lonsdale, worth the queue every time!!! We had such a wonderful stay and hope to return again soon. Thank you Sandra. X

Lovely house for family holiday

Lovely house and very helpful host. Lots of space for everyone, practical and comfortable, gorgeous garden and walks on the doorstep. Only issue people should know about is traffic noise. It is next to busy main road which can be loud.

Great cottage in fabulous location

The bronte school house is a beautiful tastefully restored property. We stayed in the half term break with our two boys 5 and 9 and used it as a base to explore the lakes and national parks. I can recommend the school house for its history quirkiness and comfort. Kirby Lonsdale is close by and has a fantastic array of eateries and superb coffee shops. Great area, fab location and a super place to stay.

Cosy historic cottage

Lovely historic cottage, with a very atmospheric interior, very tasteful, well equipped and sooo romantic. We loved to sit in front of the woodburner - so cosy. Bed is very comfy. There are nice pubs in the area and a really good bakery ("seasons bakery") as well. The lake district and the yorkshire dales were just stunning. It is really special to stay in a house with such a history. The warm welcome from Sandra, made it easy to feel at home at once.

Beautiful cottage and brilliantly located

Sandra has renovated this cottage wonderfully - nothing overdone, a place of calm and quiet. We loved our stay here. And the location for the Lakes, Bowland, and the Dales is hard to beat. Kirkby Lonsdale is just up the road (a great town with glorious views of the Lune valley and Dales), and fantastics pubs and restaurants in walking distance or a short drive away. Thanks Sandra!

Travelling back in time - with comfort

Lovely, cosy cottage in a beautiful landscape! It's actually a part of one large cottage, but feels like a comfortable house. With enough space for 6 people and a Go back in Time feeling with all the history of it! But with nice comfort and super equipped. Ok, you can hear the cars/the street, but this doesn't disturb the comfy sleep. Sandra was very nice and explained everything, gave us some recommendations. E.g. for the nearest coastal town or the very good food in the "Highwaymen". You should - walk or jogg in the early mornings into quiet green pastures, not a human in sight, only sheep - go shopping in lovely Kirkby Lonsdale - or eat icecream there - or walk from Devil's bridge to Ruskins View - take the train from Settle to Appleby - beautiful Yorkshire Dales - drive early to Windermere, go on a boat, then drive further North. The landscape gets better and better - or just sit in the wonderful garden and read a book (preferably Jane Eyre)

Wonderful cottage in the Lake District

We spent a week at the Bronte School House in May 2019. The cottage had everything we needed & there was a lot of information on the area whether you wanted to take in the sights or go for a hike. It is in a quaint village and within a reasonable drive to Lake Windermere and other lovely sights in the Lake District. Be sure to visit the Ireby Farm and Sizergh Farm shops for a good meal and to pick up fresh vegetables, baked goods and more. Kirkby Lonsdale is a 5 min drive away and has lovely shops and pubs as well as a grocery store. We enjoyed our stay at this cottage and loved the Lake District.

Cosy and relaxing

This is a great cottage with access to lots of lovely walks and very close to the lovely village of Kirkby Lonsdale. It is well kept and has everything you need and was cosy and warm at the end of October as the cold dark night were drawing in. We had a lovely family stay here and hope to be back soon.

Beautiful and invigorating get away

We have just come back from a great week at the Bronte school cottage. The cottage is very well situated, literally at the point where Lancashire, Yorkshire and Cumbria meet. We did some lovely walks in both the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District (both within easy driving distances); and also ate very well. We can particularly recommend The Plough at Lupton. We ate in as well, and the kitchen is well equipped to manage ‘proper’ cooking. Coming back to the wood burner after a day out was a real treat.

Beautifully renovated cottage close to both the Dales and Lakes

We had a wonderful 6-night stay at the cottage (2 adults and 3 boys, 10, 12 and 15). Sandra was very warm and welcoming. The cottage has been sensitively renovated to a very high standard, with everything we could need. The beds were really comfortable and we were all taken with the fabulous duvets! I've only given it 4-stars because it is on a noisy road, otherwise perfect. The garden across the drive was delightful, and we were sorry to miss it in all its summer glory. We walked from the cottage to Kirkby Lonsdale for lunch and shopping on one day, and on another we trekked up into Leck Fell, followed by tea and cake in the village tea room. The Ingleton Waterfall Trail was ideal for us all and we rounded off the trip with dinner at The Highwayman - delicious, particularly the desserts. Thank you Sandra for your beautiful house, and your generous warmth that shines through.

Very nice cottage close to Yorkshire dales and Lake District

We stayed for 14 days at this cottage for our summer holiday, and had a very nice and relaxing holiday. It was a perfect place for our family of 4 to discover the area, sceneries, attractions, etc. by foot and car. The cottage is in very good condition, very well equipped, and with good beds. Sandra has made an impressive collection of maps with walks, brochures, personal tips and suggestions for trips and things to do. There’s no need to come prepared with a pile of maps and travel books. It’s all there in the cottage and sorted out for the guests already. (A few update checks through the in-house internet and you’re ready to go.) Some nice walks actually start just from the doorstep. For those interested in the Bronte story, I can imagine this place must be marvelous. An impressive collection of books about the Bronte sisters is available in the cottage. A lot of some good restaurants are found in the neighborhood. We also benefited from Sandra’s recommended ones. The kitchen in cottages was also great for the meals we made ourselves. Sandra responded very quickly to any questions. This cottage is highly recommended. We did not miss anything. Sincerely /Steinar

Historical, comfortable and warm

We had a wonderful stay at the Bronte School house at Cowan Bridge. It’s a small town but just over the hill is Kirkby Lonsdale which had all the amenities including a big supermarket. The house itself has been renovated but the old world charm remains. Sandra was a caring host and showed us some books with the story of the Bronte sisters staying at the school. We used the wood burner in the lounge room which made it very cosy at nights and when the sun came out the next day, we sat outside in the pretty garden. We were very happy staying in this house.

Absolutely fabulous place to stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Bronte School House. It was beautifully set up. Sandra, the owner, met us and this was greatly appreciated. She showed us around the house and explained things. It was a comfortable place to stay and central to loads of things to do. We would highly recommend this property to people and will stay there again if we are ever back in UK. Re a previous review concerning traffic noise, yes, there was some, but really not a drama and I think not an issue considering the advantage of being in a central position.

Lovely and atmospheric

A lovely welcoming cottage with a very interesting history. As a big Bronte fan I was delighted to stay where the sisters went to school as famously described as Lowood in Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre. The cottage itself is in a very good position for the Lakes, Blackpool etc with lots of lovely walks nearby.

Wonderfully modernised cottage, in a great location

The cottage is well-equipped, clean, with a beautiful garden and a fantastic range of books and information about the area. We didn't need the log burner as the weather was so good and the heating more than adequate. Sandra replied quickly to our queries before our stay and was on hand by email during our stay for any further information we needed. The cottage is very well situated for both the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District, and Kirkby Lonsdale itself is well worth a visit (we can particularly recommend the fish and chips!).

Wonderful place to stay - interesting, comfortable, clean, beautiful and child friendly.

What an amazing place to stay! This cottage has everything we wanted for our weeks holiday. Aside from the excellent location - SO MUCH TO DO EVERYWHERE - the cottage itself has personality, history and is a beautiful place. The kitchen has all the bits and pieces you need to cook, there's even toys and board games, so our kids (7 & 2) were very happy. It's incredibly comfortable, very clean, beautifully decorated, interesting and there are walks you can do from the doorstep. We loved the log burner and the book selection was brilliant - so many books on and by the Brontes and the album showing the house restoration was great to see. What a brilliant place! We didn't really want to leave.. we will definitely be going back.

My husband and I are both fanatical about old properties so you can imagine when we discovered this property standing empty, as indeed it had for 30 years, we were just so excited! And then to find that this was the very school infamised by Charlotte Brontë in Jane Eyre just ratcheted up that excitement. This building was crying out for someone to care for it, to breathe life back into it; that someone was me!
Being a keen traveller myself I know that accommodation is key to a good trip. Finding somewhere built in the local vernacular, that feels warm & welcoming and that also provides 21st century comforts is vital to making you feel part of, and at home in, wherever in the world you happen to be. This is what I’ve striven for, and I do believe achieved, in Brontë School House. I look forward to warmly welcoming you!

Varför värden valde detta boende

Walk into Brontë School House and you fall in love with it! The old stone limewashed walls and the ancient floorboards welcome you home. The Lune Valley where it sits really is one of those hidden gems - perfectly located for exploring both the Lake District & the Yorkshire Dales - with luscious green rolling countryside it truly captures you in its beauty; this is quintessential english countryside at its best.
