Days Inn by Wyndham Kendal Killington Lake

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very friendly and helpful, made us feel very welcome. we would use these services agaain."

Beech Hill Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"We stayed in a standard hot tub room. It was nicely presented and comfortable with a lovely view of the lake from the hottub. The hot tub was so relaxing we went in 3 times even though we only stayed one night. The bathroom had a jacuzzi bath and a small seperate shower which seemed strange with a hot tub as well. It would have been better with a larger shower without the bath. The shower tray had quite a lot of black mold around it which there really is no excuse for, we reported this to reception along with the faulty hairdryer, hopefully these issues have been sorted for the next guests. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant and the staff worked hard to make sure we had what we needed. Our steaks were not cooked to our liking at first but this was quickly rectified for us. We didnt have breakfast so can't comment on that. Unfortunately, we wouldnt stay here again as we have some mobility issues and there are a lot of steps and no lift but that is down to our circumstances. Overall a lovely experience."

North Lakes Hotel And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I was upgraded to one if the newly refurbished suites. The room was spotlessly clean, stylish and fresh, comfortable and spacious, with nice little extra finishing. I would definitely recommend the suite (budget permitting, as the quality of the room is reflected in price) for those spending a lot of time in the room. I was mostly looking to spend my time to de stress, relax and rest. Superior rooms are also spacious and comfortable, although as far as I know, are mostly unique, i have noticed some aren’t as well equipped than others. Although, all suitable if you are going out and about more, I find they are the best value for money. The smaller rooms are lovely for a one night stay or if travelling light. I recommend making use of the spa facilities and well equipped gym. Both are clean, with all the main equipment and facilities. You can pay for treatments as extra. I have tried out a few massages, which were great for sleep and recovery from gym workouts! The staff are what makes this hotel really stand out from the rest. I cannot speak highly enough of the girls at reception, management team, and housekeeping staff. Customer service is extremely important to me, and nothing was a problem for the aforementioned staff, they made me feel comfortable, listened to and a valued returning guest. They are friendly, professional and polite. Certain staff at the pool/spa are also lovely, helpful and friendly. The bar staff were a slight let down, being fair, they were very busy."

The Belsfield Hotel

8/10 Good

"Fantastic location, staff were extremely friendly and helpful upon checking in. We had a cosy sea view room which was clean. Bathroom was clean, however was really small. Lots of choices for breakfast, from a full English, fruit, cereal and pastries. Bar area was relaxing. It is only card payments when buying drinks from the bar."

Lindeth Howe Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is the most beautiful, peaceful, interesting hotel we have ever stayed in. The welcome was super friendly , the room lovely and clean, breakfast was amazing with wait lovely staff and the views were incredible. Sitting in the garden with a coffee was so serene . We only wish we could have stayed longer."
