“Very comfortable rooms. Great breakfast.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2008

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 a great place to stay.

“Lovely Experience Alround”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2008

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 the busy centre, with ample parking (which as we have experienced before can be a problem in Kendal) Also the location on the outskirts of Kendal gave easy access to the Windermere Road without negotiating the hustle and bustle and confusing one way system in Kendal town centre
From the bedroom we had panoramic views over Kendal and the hills beyond. It was peaceful, with little traffic in the street.

We had a huge bedroom with large ensuite, both very clean and nicely decorated. The cooked breakfast was excellent.

All in all it made our short break a lovely experience.

  • Liked — The size of the room, the excellent views, proximity to town centre, value for money

“Simply the Best”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2004

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 far one of the best lodgings we found in our travels in England.
