• "We were really impressed with The Bolt Hole."

  It was cosy, comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing place to base ourselves for a few days in the South Lake District. We received a warm welcome from the owner on arrival and a check-in to make sure everything was OK for us during our stay.

• "Our recent stay at this charming apartment in the heart of the Lake District was an absolute dream."

  Nestled amidst the stunning natural beauty of the area, the apartment provided the perfect blend of both elegance and modern comfort. The breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and the tranquil atmosphere made for a truly rejuvenating experience. The apartment itself was impeccably maintained, with a cozy fireplace, comfortable beds, and a well-equipped kitchen that made it feel like a home away from home. The thoughtful touches, such as a welcome basket filled with lovely treats added an extra layer of warmth and hospitality. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and accommodating, making sure every aspect of our stay was seamless. I cannot recommend this apartment highly enough for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the unparalleled beauty of the Lake District. Thank you to both Philip and Hilary.

  It was clean, very well equipped and a home from home. They were always on hand if there were any problems, whilst respecting our privacy. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this holiday home to other people.

• "The Bolt Hole is a lovely comfortable apartment."

  It was extremely clean and well equipped. The welcome hamper was a nice touch too and the Owners are on hand to help with any queries should you need them. Another plus is the off road parking so close to the entrance gate. Lovely walks close by and very convenient for Kendal town centre. We enjoyed our stay and will hopefully return.

• "We had an extremely comfortable & relaxing stay at The Bolt Hole."

  A lot of thought has gone into the furnishings & facilities in the property. The owners are very welcoming and gave us some information about the area. The walk into town is very short ( just over 5 mins down the hill which is quite steep but only a short walk) We would definitely stay here again!

• "Hi quality fixtures and fittings and a nice comfortable area to relax in."

  Parking close to a secure entrance and within a short walk from Kendal Center although the return is a steep climb. Fully recommend this place for a walking holiday and would gladly have rebooked for next year but the price has gone up £60 within a week of our visit. Shame really.

  Good quality fittings and soft furnishings, cookware etc. Lovely terrace which gets the sun. Parking right outside. Flowers, wine and snacks supplied and a nice surprise even a pint of milk in the fridge. Owners were friendly and helpful and local information pack provided. Lovely spot ….10mins walk to Kendal but be aware if on foot you need to walk up a hill to get home. Really enjoyed our stay, very central for visiting lakes.
