Take in the idyllic Lakeland ambience and scenery from your apartment base in the heart of Kendal, surrounded by boutiques, restaurants, bars and cafes. Culture lovers can wander the Abbot Hall Art Gallery and the museum, go to music events, live shows, comedy gigs and movies at the Brewery Arts Centre, shop at the twice-weekly market and explore the cobbled 18th-century yards – all within half a mile of this holiday home. Immerse yourself in the heritage of Sizergh Castle (4.5 miles) and Levens Hall (6 miles) boasting stunning 17th-century furnishings and gardens. Ascend Castle Hill to discover the ruins of Kendal Castle (1 mile on foot) including wonderful views over the fells, and take a trip to Windermere (9 miles) for activities and adventures on the water.

Climb 13 steps to reach the entrance hall with storage space for coats, boots and dog leads. At the end of the hallway is the open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining room, providing a light and warm space to unwind following a day of activity; sink into the comfy seating (complete with one sofa bed option) in front of the Smart TV, with the flame effect electric fire adding atmosphere. Rustle up a home-cooked meal in the beamed kitchen and eat at the six-seater dining table. There are two bedrooms – one double and one zip-and-link king-size (available as a twin room on request).

Very clean, safe and central apartment. Owners have the cafe below (closes at 4pm). We had a late lunch there when we arrived and popped down for a takeaway bacon and mushroom roll the following morning which was lovely!
