This is a wonderful place to stay and can't be recommended too highly. Comfortable rooms (with quality toiletries and lots of thoughtful little touches like a water bowl and towel for the dog), attentive, friendly and courteous staff, great atmosphere, superb food and great location. Walk through the graveyard at the rear of the hotel and you are straight into... More

This place is fabulous. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff could not have been more pleasant or helpful. Food was delicious. Added touches included free tea and coffee for residents. Parking pemits are a welcome bonus. It was lovely to see that the place is bustling throughout the day. The owners who are on site and friendly... More

Excellent weekend stay for the 2nd time at the Sun Inn. Superb staff with nothing too much trouble. Very comfortable rooms and they even passed the "pillow" test, with good quality soft pillows. Lovely food and delicious breakfasts. Good idea to have parking permits for the guests.

I spent the night here recently and was very impressed. The rooms were appointed to a high standard and the food was excellent. The real ale was a bonus after some days on the West Coast of Scotland.The staff were pleasant and helpful. Altogether a worthwhile experience though the lack of on-site parking is a disadvantage.

Thank you Michael for writing us such a lovely review. We realise car parking is a challenge in Kirkby Lonsdale and have recently acquired free car parking permits for each of our rooms so that all of our guests can park for free in all of the car parks in the town as well as many in the surrounding areas....

This little Inn never disappoints. A real gem. Comfortable, clean, cosy, friendly with great food and a fantastic location. The staff are all tremendous making you feel so at home. Our fourth stay was just like the previous three - great. Can't wait for our fifth.

This has become our regular little getaway place. We stayed for our wedding anniversary and arrived to find a bottle and card in the room; a lovely touch. We booked the spring break offer, dinner, bed and breakfast along with our springer spaniel Jake. The food is very nice, restaurant standard and my other half loves the Thwaite's Wainwright that's...

We stayed at the Sun Inn for two nights while traveling around England. This was a highlight of our trip. Andy who was wonderful and so friendly showed us to our rooms which were beautiful and the bathrooms so nice with bath salts for the baths. Our room number 12 overlooked the church yard and I would highly recommend it.... More

Had a 3 night stay here April 29th, found it by chance on the Internet. What a beautifull place, great food , lovely staff and amazing rooms. Couldn't fault anything about this place. Lovely bottle of sparkling wine left in room for my birthday, what a lovely touch. Would recommend this place and will defiantly bee returning.
