Overall, it did the trick for our tour of the Lake District. I'm not sure I will stay there again.
Pros:

Room and bathroom were clean. And the pool looked lovely, just wish I had brought my costume.

Cons:

I found the bed and pillows all really hard. I was meant to ask about softer pillows, but was rushing about, so my fault there. Curtains never really closed properly so was woken by sun coming in. I also never realised hotel was so close to main road, so road traffic noise was hectic when windows open. Also expected more of a garden, maybe there is when building works are done, but don't think so.

Enjoyable stay
Pros:

Lovely, clean and comfortable room, friendly and helpful staff, good food at breakfast. Location great - on the edge of Kendal, close to the by pass - didn't have to go into the town centre at all.

Cons:

Stayed here several times now - internally the place could do with a lick of paint - the paintwork along the corridors in particular is starting to look a bit shabby.

Enjoyed my visit to the area
Pros:

I liked having a swim. Bed was very comfortable. Parking on site.

Cons:

Short staffed so noone on reception quite often. My room key didn't work when we arrived. I had to get another guest to lead me to the kitchen to find a staff member to search out receptionist.
