A LAKE District B&B has been named the best Guest Accommodation of the Year for England at a major industry awards ceremony.
Susan and Peter Robinson, custodians of ‘Nanny Brow’ in Ambleside, said they were 'deeply honoured' after coming up trumps at the AA B&B Awards 2017 at the London Landmark Hotel.
Since 2009, Susan and her family have worked tirelessly to create an establishment that fully reflects their desire to create a luxurious and peaceful location in the heart of the Lake District.
Built in 1904, Nanny Brow is one of the finest arts and crafts properties in the area and has been painstakingly refurbished by Susan.
Susan said: "We are shocked but deeply honoured and thrilled to be held in such high esteem by an organisation such as the AA. I am grateful to my loyal and dedicated staff who have worked so hard over the years and without whom we wouldn’t be receiving this award."
All the winners were nominated by AA Inspectors who inspect and rate more than 2,000 B&Bs throughout the United Kingdom.
The awards include guest accommodation for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland as well as the awards for Unique Bed and Breakfast, Restaurant with Rooms, Friendliest Bed and Breakfast and the B&B Story Award.
he winners received their award certificate together with an engraved Villeroy and Boch decanter for all their guests to see.
