Would Stay Again
Wonderful stay here, much better than I could have anticipated. The staff are lovely and there's nothing they can't do for you. Worth noting, we travelled when the weather conditions turned horrific with the snow. This venue has a lot of travellers stranded and opened up their function room to help those stranded (all rooms were booked) - absolutely wonderful to see as they more than extended their hospitality and they should be commended for that.

As frequent traveller I would not rate this as a 4 start hotel but 3 . The basics were all OK (except there was no heat in our room when we arrived) but there were a number of things missing that one would expect to find in a4 star hotel - like no desk, no night light in the bathroom, minimal heat in the bathroom etc.

Friendly staff but room disappointing.
Staff were very friendly and helpful, very good breakfast, but the room was disappointing. Poor toiletries, toilet flush faulty which was quickly repaired before breaking down again and water flush continued to trickle through the night. Window view looked out onto a dog run complete with artificial grass/poop area.

It was a decent property but as it is was on the edge or just outside of Kendal, there was little to do.

Can’t fault the service received. All of the staff were extremely friendly and professional. The room was comfortable but fairly small and the weather was extremely warm so we had a quite unpleasant night as we were unable to open the window due to mozzie/midge invasion!! There is no air con nor fans in the room

Very pleasant even though there was some building work going on, no noice evident. Room is ok clean and tidy. The food was excellent and staff were friendly. Not much around but ideal for my business trip to Kendal.
