We brought a group of 36 walkers for a 4 night stay. The hotel is within easy reach of the Howgills and the Southern Lakes and Kendal itself is a very pleasant town. The staff were friendly and helpful. There were some small niggles but they were dealt with promptly and cheerfully. The food was excellent. We had a good... More

I stayed at the County Hotel for 2 nights recently. Staff were friendly and unhurried. My room was clean and surprisingly good for the price paid.

I came as an independent visitor and my experience was otherwise. The staff were very pleasant but evidently overstretched. When I arrived, the receptionist actually drew my attention to the... More
