“I found this countryside inn, just outside Kendal, remarkably easy to reach, and its location proved ideal for trips to Windermere and Ambleside. The staff are genuinely helpful and accommodating, and I understand the food is a real highlight, from generous dinners to excellent breakfasts. The comfortable beds apparently ensure a good night's sleep, making this a worthwhile base for exploring the Lake District.”
