Beautiful grounds and location, the staff were friendly and service was excellent. The room was beautiful. The evening meal in the restaurant wasn’t the best but the breakfast was superb. Plenty of continental options and cooked breakfast very tasty. Again, the staff the next morning were very friendly and helpful.

Fabulous Valentines weekend

Amazing views, staff were absolutely incredible and made sure we had a great time. Gave us lots of information and guidance, food recommendations and went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect and we had everything we needed. Very well priced and the food and breakfast was in a world of its own. Absolutely will be back, it has become a new favourite to visit!

Lovely house with character. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Could be a bit cleaner in the rooms. We were the only ones dining in so slightly lacked atmosphere but staff had the right level of attentiveness. Breakfast nice and freshly cooked. Great wedding venue.

Very welcoming, lovely food spoilt slightly by a dead fly squashed on the room window, not in a position that could have been overlooked. Some areas of the room were a little shabby, but we still intend to stay there again.

We stayed for 2 nights. Needed a dog friendly hotel and this ticked all the boxes. The grounds are beautiful and extensive. Waking up to half a dozen deer on the lawn was lovely. The family room was fantastic, the bathroom was very clean and looked newly renovated. The food is as all the reviews state. We enjoyed every single meal. We are already looking at booking another stay.

Very good location as a stop over from Scotland. The hotel is really very nice, lovely grounds, nice bar and public rooms. Great breakfast. Our family room on the top floor was a bit stuffy, it could do with a proper air-con unit and the shower was a little tricky to get out of as you clamber over the bath rim. Very nice dinner too, although the steak was a little over-cooked.

Decent hotel and stay

The Villa was a nice, clean, decent hotel. Nice dinner, good choice of drinks, but quite an average breakfast. Very frustrating WiFi when you expect much better these days. Fortunate that hotels in Kendal aren’t particularly salubrious.

Nice countryside hotel in a convenient location

Nice hotel in a nice location. Staff are friendly and professional. Rooms are spacious and well appointed. Cleanliness is very good. My only complain was the bed was too soft for my liking, and they were a lot of pillows and cushions I had to move aside to use the bed, but otherwise no other complaints. Breakfast was very nice, and I had supper there too which was pretty good, with decent service pace.
