Sunshine, pizza, mountain views and Coniston Water sparkling in the background… summer in the Lake District doesn’t get much better than this

We are so delighted to welcome some beautiful new additions to our little shop here at The Terrace at Brantwood ✨

Many of you will already recognise the stunning artwork of Mandy Allan, whose much-loved prints have been part of our collection for some time now. We’re so pleased to now also stock her wonderful greeting cards, featuring the same incredible attention to detail and character that make her work so special.

From charming Highland cows to delicate butterflies and curious woodland creatures, each piece captures the beauty of the natural world so perfectly. They complement Mandy’s existing collection in the shop beautifully and make such lovely keepsakes, gifts, or little treats for yourself.

Next time you visit, be sure to have a browse — we think you’ll fall in love with them just as much as we have 🤍

What a wonderfully creative morning here at The Terrace at Brantwood.

We’re constantly blown away by the talent of our customers capturing the beauty of the lakes and fells in such incredible ways. It’s always so special to see people take inspiration from the views around us and turn them into something truly beautiful.

A peaceful morning of art, coffee, cake and scenery… we can’t think of a better way to spend it.

How talented are some of our customers…

One of our lovely visitors spent the afternoon sketching this beautiful view from inside The Terrace Café at Brantwood, and we just had to share it. We think it captures the calm and beauty of the place so perfectly.

What a delightful way to spend an afternoon good coffee, peaceful views and a little creativity. We feel very lucky that Brantwood inspires such wonderful moments.

What a week it’s been.

Seeing Bluebird back on the water after all these years was a pretty special moment, and it’s been lovely to see so many people enjoying it here at Brantwood and The Terrace over the last week.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who visited, supported us, shared kind words, photos and lovely feedback. We’ve genuinely been overwhelmed by the response. There have been far too many messages to reply to individually, but please know we’ve appreciated every single one.

It’s been a real pleasure to be part of such an important occasion and to share it with so many familiar and new faces overlooking the lake.

Thank you again for choosing to spend your time with us we really do appreciate it. 💙

We’re trying very hard to stay professional about the K7 Bluebird Festival today…

…but then you look out from The Terrace at Brantwood and realise this might just be the best seat in Coniston.

Blue skies over the lake, the hills putting on a show of their own, coffee in hand and the story of Bluebird unfolding just below us…Not bad right?

We’re open all day until 8pm with Red Bank coffee, cakes, lunches and pizzas.

Whether you’re following the festival, visiting Brantwood or simply making the most of the weather the terrace is ready and waiting.

And yes… we may be slightly biased. ☀️

Day 3 of the K7 Festival and Brantwood is absolutely buzzing
The Terrace is full of it this week. Homemade cakes lining the counter, coffee all day, pizzas firing in the evenings, and some of the best views in the Lakes just outside the door.
There’s something pretty special about wandering through Ruskin’s historic home, soaking up the creativity and then settling on the terrace with cake and coffee as the festival unfolds on the water right in front of you. It doesn’t get much more special than that.
Still the East side’s best kept secret… but maybe not for much longer 👀
Who’s joining us over the next few days?
