After a long drive we received a lovely welcome from the lady at the front desk. The room was large, quiet and had a river view. We had everything we needed for a brief stay. Would recommend.

Disliked: Room comfort
They experience wasnt great. Initially put in a room without a bath. The bathroom condition was poor in the room we were moved in to. Unusual unpleasant odour to the room we stayed in. The spa facilities we average, sauna wasn't very hot and the jacuzzi didn't work. Good that dogs could stay but we wouldn't stay here again.

A good place to stay in central Kendal. Unfortunately for us we chose a room with a relatively small bed. The bed was comfy but should have chosen a room with a King size bed, Excellent breakfast and kind and friendly staff
