The Tavern is a beautiful old inn, full of rustic charm, but with a modern edge. The room was lovely, very comfortable bed, large shower and stunning stand alone bath. The only downside was the noise of the traffic on the A6 outside the window, but a pair of earplugs helped. We would book the Tavern again. The food was delicious, with lots of local foods on offer. The dinner portions are very good!

The noise from the A6 road. The TV didn't work, couldn't get any of the streaming services at all.

The aesthetics of the room were lovely. A very homely vibe and very comfortable. We were running abit late for the 9 o’clock check in and the woman who dealt with us was great and stayed until we got there to show us to our room. So a very big thank you to her 10/10 service!

All in all I wouldn’t say there is anything we didn’t like. The place is perfectly described and is exactly what it says it is, the price is perfect and I wouldn’t ask for anything different from it. If there was something bad we wouldn’t stay there, simple.

We were delighted by the interaction with Sam and the locals, the football was on and we chatted to everyone and were treated as part of the gang, they also gave us tips on where to go. Great location for our stop over on the way to Scotland, but perfectly placed for a trip further into The Lakes. The room was wonderful, couldn't have asked for more, I was concerned on arrival that it was next to the road, but the walls are so thick we didn't hear it at all. We ate here too and the food was incredibly tasty.

One thought, room 4, our room there was no mirror next to the plug sockets which made sorting my hair a bit of a problem, but easily resolved.

Wonderful hosts made us feel very welcome. Food was excellent as too the service, beds comfortable and everything clean. We would definitely return.

Room was very compact, not much could be done about that . No fridge and only one small serving of milk supplied.Coffee machine doesn’t seem to function correctly. Positioned on a noisy road but that’s obvious when you book. Door bangs if window is open.

Wonderful host and staff, as a solo traveler I felt very welcome. Lovely, comfortable room with nice decor and great choice of drinks in the bar - didn’t eat but the food smelt wonderful. Location of the property was good in relation to nearby Morecambe Bay and Kendal.

Loved the bathroom design but the shower area could do with a deep clean as tiling quite stained in places. Bedroom could also do with paint touching up as there were some big scuffs on the walls which slightly detracted from the lovely decor.

The staff were really helpful and polite. The room was very clean and had all the expected amenities. The menu is limited but the food is of really good quality and well presented. Beware though, the portions are huge! There is a good wine list too. The whole place is nicely decorated and has a lovely atmosphere.

It would have been nice to have a chair in the bedroom but it didn’t stop us enjoying our stopover.

It’s a lovely building, the room was clean and really homely. It was fully stocked with everything you’d need for your stay. Staff were helpful and friendly and the food in the pub was delicious, 10/10 would recommend :)

My only complain would be that the body wash for when you were in the shower was in the other side of the shower door so water got everywhere when you needed to use it but it’s not a massive deal that :)

Absolutely beautiful place to stay. The staff are all incredibly friendly and welcoming. So are the locals. Sam especially, she goes above and beyond to make the stay amazing. I cannot recommend this place more. The food is amazing. Super clean room. The bath is to die for. The location is great, short drive to the lakes. Would highly recommend. We will for sure be returning

There is no negatives at all.

Staff provide impeccable service, nothing is too much effort. Very friendly and chatty but not imposing. Sam was delightful when greeting us and showing us to our room, even though we only booked the room 20 minutes beforehand. Would absolutely recommend staying for dinner and booking in for breakfast - compliments to the chef! Beautifully maintained, really lovely understated decor. Comfy bed, very quiet in the evening so had a great night’s sleep. We also went for the room with the big bath - amazing. Wish we could have stayed another night after another cold, wet day in Kendal.

Nothing, room was a lot colder than the rest of the property but it was also the biggest and was at the end of the building with exposed walls. However, the duvet was lovely and warm, and the host provided us with a heater to help us dry out our clothes

The landlady couldn’t have been nicer. We arrived at the hotel late due to issues beyond our control. The lady kept the kitchen open until we had been fed which was a well received gesture - the food was very well received. The rooms are large and sufficiently appointed; the ensuite had a lovely big shower cubicle. What a breakfast! We had the traditional breakfast which was plentiful and tasty. I was introduced to Borrowdale Bitter an absolutely lovely pint of which I had several!

The shower in room 2 could do with being a bit more powerful especially as it was a large shower cubicle in a smart ensuite.
