Entire House / Apartment Romneys Kendal (Kendal, United Kingdom)

Reviewers said this property's location just off the A6 was conveniently a short drive from attractive Kendal town centre for museums and amenities plus shopping and dining options. Non-drivers welcomed having bus-stops nearby. Motorists welcomed the ample free parking and liked the proximity of the A591, A590 and M6 for uncomplicated access to golf courses, railway stations and area attractions. Outdoors enthusiasts were spoilt for choice with the stunning Lake District National Park on the doorstep and the Yorkshire Dales National Park also within striking distance.

The self-catering apartments and snugs at Romney's were often described as being modern yet characterful. Guests frequently said they were well-appointed, clean and well-equipped with inviting en suite bathrooms and cosy beds.

Visitors spoke highly of the pleasant, professional and obliging personnel. Diners loved the food, friendly service and pleasant surroundings in the gastro-pub. The varied menu of reasonably-priced meals featuring local ingredients appealed to many as did the tapas snacks, carvery, yummy desserts and real ales. Families said they were well catered for thanks to the kids' menu and covered outdoor play area.

It disappointed some guests that a full breakfast wasn't available, although hot sandwiches were served once the kitchen opened in the mornings.

Critics occasionally noted drawbacks with some rooms such as interruptions to the hot water supply or unreliable free Wi-Fi. It was also claimed some of the apartments and en suite bathrooms were cramped, especially when fully occupied.

Occasional noise from adjacent rooms or the restaurant and bar was reportedly audible in certain rooms, causing a nuisance for several light sleepers.
