A little bit of Cumbrian magic has arrived at The Terrace at Brantwood

We’re delighted to stock the beautiful children’s books by local mother and daughter duo, Maureen Lambert and Sally Anne Lambert, based in nearby Hawkshead.

Written by Maureen and lovingly brought to life through Sally Anne’s enchanting illustrations, these charming stories are filled with imagination, wonder and heart. 🌈

Many of you will already know Sally Anne’s wonderful artwork from the prints and cards we proudly stock in our Terrace cafe shop, and we’re thrilled to now offer these beautiful books alongside them.

Perfect for little readers, thoughtful gifts, or anyone who still believes in a little magic.

Pop in and take a look on your next visit to Brantwood. ❤️
