Hillside Bed & Breakfast, hotel in Kendal

Hillside Bed & Breakfast is an old Victorian residence located in the historic market town of Kendal, 2 minutes' walk uphill from the centre.

Richard was a friendly and helpful host. The place was spotlessly clean, the room spacious and I had a really comfortable and quiet night's sleep. Breakfast was perfectly cooked with plenty on offer. I would absolutely recommend Hillside B&B to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in Kendal.

The location is convenient (south or northbound), and for a little extra you can overlook the lake and surrounding countryside. Quiet place. Nice clean (although slightly damp) bedding and fresh towels. It was very cheap, so good on a budget.
