Welcome to Kendal Cottages, our self-catering accommodation on the edge of the Lake District. Our luxury apartment occupies a beautiful riverside location in the heart of the town with views of the River Kent, Stramongate Bridge and Kendal Castle beyond. This vacation rental accommodation is non-smoking throughout, and sleeps up to four people.
Directors Paul and Becky Johnson purchased their first holiday rental property at the beginning of 2010 - a luxury riverside apartment in the heart of Kendal with fabulous views down the River Kent towards Kendal Castle. Paul and Becky live with their two young boys on the outskirts of Kendal and are therefore usually on hand should they be required.
Our luxurious riverside apartment covers just over 1,000 square feet and can sleep up to four people. It has an airy, open plan kitchen, living room and dining area, two bedrooms with super king size beds, one of which can be converted to a twin if preferred, and two bathrooms. A generously proportioned balcony allows you to sit out and savour the view down river, over the ancient Stramongate Bridge and towards Kendal Castle.
It's rare to find a holiday let finished and presented to such a high standard - far exceeded expectations and highly recommended. Best walks: Glenridding to Howtown (Ullswater) and return journey via steamer boat, and Hampsfell (Grange-over-Sands). Thank you for a lovely stay and especially for your attentive personal service - the birthday card was a lovely touch.
Our accommodation is in the heart of the market town of Kendal, often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Lakes'. Getting here is easy, whatever method of transport you choose to take. If travelling from the south, leave the M6 motorway at Junction 36 and follow signs for Kendal. If travelling from the north, leave the M6 at Junction 38 and follow the A6 over Shap and on towards Kendal.

The Dales National park is without a doubt one of the best National parks in the UK with endless Dales to drive through and explore or if you are fit you can do one of hundreds of well marked footpaths. Something different at every turn in the road. It can be a bit daunting driving on the mostly single track roads with passing places for the less experienced driving so please remember that but I would definitely recommend a holiday in the Dales or a day out.

Amazing place for some mild - moderate hiking. Parking can be expensive so advised to get their early if you want to find the free parking

One of the most beautiful National Parks I have seen in the UK. The countryside is very scenic, its peple are warm and welcoming. Full of hidden gems both food-wise and from a scenery perspective. The 3 peaks challenge is certainly worth doing, it was a pleasure meeting so many hikers along the circuit. The kind of place where everyone greets everyone and a sense of community is breathing through the air.

Had a brilliant weekend exploring on my New motorcycle. There are plenty of cheap place's out by Grassington to park up live in vehicles and motorhomes. Prices ranging from 10 per night. But there are no facilities at the10 per night park up and unfortunately at some no tent's permitted. But also plenty of site's with all facilities. Depends on what you are looking for.

I would recommend to anyone to give the Yorkshire Dales a visit. I had no plans or end destination so just took any road that looked good. But came across waterfalls and plenty of wildlife. So for you people that like to plan things, there is plenty to do and see. And I hope you have as much fun exploring as I did.

Area is filled with beauty and history, the landscape is like nothing I seen before. Recommend joining a day tour group to see all the sights

Beautiful area to hike, drive or cycle through. Breathtaking views unless the weather is foggy, rainy and snowing like the day we visited Well worth the trip though.

Nice walking trails, with interesting wildlife and birds. Red squirrels are nice addition. I was lucky to see one.

Park up & go walking or cycling for a day in the countryside, the views and fresh are are lovely. Also dotted around you will find local visitor spots all over the Dales to enjoy (best to Google and search these locations before setting off, so you don't clog up the many narrow B roads due to miss-turns).

Can I give it 10 stars? Beautiful hills and dales, characterful towns and villages, great pubs, etc etc. THE best place to relax or be active. Only problem is the almost complete lack of public transport in most parts.

Beautiful part of England. Varying landscapes from the wild to the pastoral. Hills, rivers, streams and moorland. Plenty of villages for refreshments and rest. Villages and towns can be very busy in the summer.
