Find hotels near Kendal Castle in Kendal, United Kingdom

The hotel is set on the foot of a hillside on the Eastern side of Kendal. The hotel grounds are large and there is a lot of parking, though during my stay there were several functions taking place so the lot filled up during the afternoon. Overall our impression was that this was more of a group/business hotel rather than a tourist destination, but it suited our touristy purposes fine. Check-in was fast and efficient. The hotel is a bit of a sprawl and our room was on a second floor, requiring some hefting of suitacases up steps. To be fair, we had declined help with the luggage but had underestimated how far the room was. Hallways are a bit older and the hall near our room wasn't lit very well due to a burned-out bulb. Room was pleasant and had a smaller flat-screen TV and wireless Internet, though the latter was only available in our room if one sat near the door. The hotel restaurant was a nice surprise. After failing to find a place in Kendal that appealed to us we resigned ourselves to eating in the hotel restaurant, only to find that the food was excellent and it appears to be a local destination judging by how full it was both days when we were there. Kendal is a bit of a walk from the hotel and there didn't appear to be much to do in the town itself. As such I wouldn't stay at the Castle Green if I didn't have a car and was expecting to be spending time walking around. Overall was a good experience and a good 'base camp' for exploring the local area.
