Fantastic 5* stay
Pros:

Dinner was great and so was the breakfast. Staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming.

The room itself was cosy and spotlessly clean. It came with everything we needed, a smart TV, hairdryer, excellent coffee and tea selection, along with local Bath House toiletries. The double bed was comfortable and linen was good quality.

Cons:

The walls were a little thin and we could hear our neighbours but nothing major. The room was a little warm in the summer but comes with an aircon unit - it was pretty noisy.

Gorgeous stay in Platos Kirby Lonsdale
Pros:

Right In the centre of Kirby Lonsdale, Platos is a lovely comfortable little hotel/ bistro/pub, the bedroom was homely clean and well presented, fabulous breakfast and cheerful helpful staff, we had a lovely weekend there and am sure that we will be returning many times.

Plato's was a welcoming stay and would recommend
Pros:

Very friendly staff and in a lovely small town, fantastic breakfast with ample tea and coffee.
Very nice outside area with lots of ambience.

Cons:

The room was a bit small but adequate, clean and comfortable, a little noisy outside in the streets till after midnight, but we both had a good nights sleep.

excellent.
Pros:

the property was centrally located within the town, the staff were friendly and very helpful and accommodating. premises was very clean. the evening meal of chateaubriand steak we both had was excellent and we chose the blue sitlton sauce to go with it. the room was airy and light may have been a little noisy for some due to its location in the town but didn't affect us. the breakfast was agin excellent. overall couldn't fault the place.

Cons:

Great place to stay if you want to be in Kirkby Lonsdale. Would stay again and recommend.
Pros:

Really clean. Nicely decorated. Great breakfast. Although the pub was quite lively when we arrived, we weren’t disturbed in our room. The other evenings were quiet.

Cons:

We stayed for 3 nights. It would have been better if the toilet roll and tea bags/water had been replenished on the second day.
