The B&B is clean and friendly. It is well situated for an easy walk in to town or for the main road out. The owners make you feel welcome and provide a good service. I would use again when in the area. More

Before visiting Kendal there were some awful reviews for this place. They mentioned a horrid matron-style owner. They have gone and the couple that own it now are considerate, pleasent and helpful. The rooms are very comfortable and the breakfast is fresh, full and brilliant. We left late the next day and the owner still offered us breakfast. Overall its... More

The owners of this property have changed since your last reviews! !! They couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming. They seemed very knowledgable about the local area, especially the hill walking. This is a beautiful Victorian house with lots of original features like fireplaces in the bedrooms and encaustic tiling in the hall. It was five minutes walk from... More

We have spent two wonderful vacations at Airethwaite House. Each time, we found the accommodations fantastic, the food exceptional, and the landlady very helpful and knowledgeable. The house is just a short walk from the town center and is situated on a hill overlooking the lovely countryside. The guests were charming and conversation at breakfast was delightful. This was by...

A beautiful Victorian house with many original features. The rooms are a good size and very comfortable. Location wise, the B&B is ideal with just a 5 minute walk in to the town centre. The walk is however up a quite steep hill. The only problem with Airethwaite House is the land lady! We found her extremely rude and difficult... More

Nestled in Beautiful countryside, a solid typical Kendal house...all good omens. The rooms are well equiped and perfectly pleasant. The landlady is vintage 1960 in attitude. The notion of charming the visitor is not part of her brief..she is a classic landlady with lots of instructions and rules. It makes for an interesting experience.. and certainly a good story after... More

A very nice B&B in a peaceful area only around 5-10 mins walk from town. Only has 3 bedrooms, and owners have obviously taken a pride in their house. Lovely bedroom - TV had video and personal selection of videos to watch, books. Extra toiletries that you don't normally get in a b&b. Communal breakfast table with very tasty breakfast.... More
