Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Kendal

Anita was a fabulous host. very accommodating & helpful. wonderful vegan breakfast. Really comfortable & quiet stay. Great access to Buttermere. thank you!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Motherby House and am so grateful to the hosts, Jacquie and David, for making me feel so welcome. They’re both kind and engaging—and they gave me some great recommendations for places to eat and visit in the area. Breakfast was delicious and Jacquie kindly made me a tasty packed lunch for my hike! I’d be very happy to stay here again.

I am not sure I can add more superlatives to my last review - lovely house, perfect location and terrific hospitality.

Beautiful warm clean accommodation . The bed was the most comfortable I’ve slept in. Bathroom was large, very clean and hot water. Julie left us a wide choice of breakfast including vegan, lovely. Very private and quiet, parking. Attention to detail was great “sheep” .

Easy enough to find, friendly host and clean comfy bedroom. Beautiful views and a relaxing stay.

Amazing overnight stay. Beautiful surroundings, the food In the pub was incredible. Especially the pies! Will be back again for sure. Hosts and everyone were so friendly, even being our 2 big dogs it was a great stay.

Stayed 4 days in Paul’s lovely cottage, just a short walk from Hawkshead village. The accommodations were as expected and Paul could not have been a more gracious host. He has a wealth of local knowledge and directed us on some beautiful walks. Breakfasts were fantastic! Would absolutely return in a heartbeat.

100% worth the price, best of the best. We had a really really great time together. Pete has a very strong sense of humor, and Carole makes us a wonderful local feast and breakfast. It’s FLAWLESS! My family is really enjoyed. One thing I hate is our English is not so good that we can’t express all our happiness. Even that, they use translation apps to break the barrier. There are so many wonderful details that can't be expressed in the comments. They show the true brilliance of humanity and tell us that friendship knows no boundaries. 100 out of 10!

Fiona was a lovely host, nothing was too much trouble. The Bedroom and en suite were very pleasing. Lots of extras that Fiona has thought about were appreciated. Can definitely recommend a stay here

We found the Kentrigg House accommodation spacious and very comfortable. The private sitting area with it's own TV is a great place to relax before going to bed. Elizabeth's continental breakfasts are wonderful. Breakfast is served in a large conservatory with great views across the valley. A relaxing and enjoyable stay. We will book again!

My wife, baby and I loved our two-night stay in Brian's tranquil and homely farmhouse. For a 7 month old the set up with a double bed and a single bed worked perfectly for us. It was nice to arrive to a warm bedroom as he had turned the heater on ahead of our arrival. Peaceful, quiet location with stunning surrounding views. His two black cats are lovely too! Thank you

Great location and excellent VFM, polite staff and warm atmosphere. Loved the room and all facilities on sight

Had a peaceful nights sleep, Jacqueline and Geoff are friendly warm welcoming hosts. And Geoffs home made granola was heavenly, thank you so so much. The room was warm cosy perfect 💚✨🌳

Diane was a very responsive host and an extremely lovely person. She and Ian were very helpful, the location of the BnB was excellent, the room was lovely and clean with a comfortable bed and nice hot shower. Diane’s cooking was also incredible, we enjoyed two very lovely breakfasts. We would absolutely stay again!

If you want a really homey, quiet base to do hikes from AND several really good farm-to-table vegetarian restaurants all within 15-min. drive, this is the place for you. I stayed 4 days with Bren in her home and felt very at home. She even made me vegetarian breakfasts each morning. Comfy bed, sunny room, excellent shower and a tub if you like to soak. Really good WiFi! and super friendly neighbors whom I met. Bren is super communicative, had great suggestions for places to visit and hikes to take. Would totally stay with her again.

our second stay with Wendy and wouldn't want to stay anywhere else, very close to where we like to be , and Wendy is an amazing host! Room is lovely and clean, a little home from home after a day walking non stop ! will be back 🥰

Tony is a kind, reliable, and responsive host who made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The house is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully furnished, creating a warm and comfortable environment. Its location is ideal: just a 10-minute walk from both the train and main bus stations, which makes it a perfect base for exploring the Lake District. We especially enjoyed not having to worry about breakfast each morning before heading off early on our new adventures. Special highlights were spending time with Smudge, Tony’s adorable and playful kitten, and admiring Tony's latest pottery creations. We’d gladly stay here again without hesitation!

absolutely wonderful stay, breathtaking views and wonderful food nearby. Sarah is a fabulous host and her recommendations are spot on! thank you ☺️

Firstly, and most importantly, Sara was the most incredible host. She is a wonderful human, and looked after me perfectly. Coffee and breakfast in the morning. She arranged a seat in the sun for reading outside in the afternoon, and pre-lit the fire in the evening so the private living room was cozy on my return from dinner. And so much more. Birkenpath is a gem of a house, set in the most gorgeous nature. Large and comfy bedroom inside, and gorgeous hikes just out the front door. Don’t hesitate to book. It is among the very best of the best.

Thank you very much for a wonderful stay at Tracey's place. Great rooms, fantastic service and highly recommended. we will be happy to return at a later opportunity. Hans-Ole og Åsmund

I arrived earlier than check in just to advise that I was actually there and was not a no show due to me not returning till late that night. I was given my keys and had immediate access to the room and a quick drink in the bar before I went to do my thing . A lovely place to come home to with friendly locals in the bar while I was having a nightcap :-)

nice place for the price

we stayed at Liz and Edwards farm which was one of the most memorable experience. The place was tastefully decorated by Liz who had been an amazing, helpful and kind host serving up delicious cakes and breakfast each day, making sure we start the day right! She was extremely helpful in suggesting places to visit as well as showed us around her beautiful farm. One of the best bnb's i have stayed at and would definitely visit back when visiting the lake district. The farm gets covered by a blanket of stars at night, an ideal location for a peaceful holiday!

It was brilliant to get to stay with Marianne in her family home. She was very welcoming and friendly and showed us around her home and all of the amenities. Once settled in we made the short walk into the centre of town. We were able to come and go as we pleased. Marianne provided a delightful continental breakfast which was generously sized and set us up very well for the day. We shared stories and it was great to learn about eachother. As someone new to Lancaster, she also gave us some helpful insights into the area. She was a natural host and very sweet and accommodating. Thank you 😊
