Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Kendal

Really enjoyed our stay at Alison's cottage. Nice quiet location but not far from local pubs etc. Very clean and great layout for 2 couples with bathroom each. Excellent value & friendly host.

Our family of 4 had a perfect stay at Caxton Cottage! It was cosy, charming and extremely clean. Kay was super helpful, responsive and provided us with all the essential information we needed. Thank you again for the accommodation Kay! We would love to be back at Windermere and Caxton Cottage soon :)

We have had a lovely stay at the boathouse which was just amazing! The boat house its self is beautiful, clean and comfortable with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! It is very well equipt, plenty of towels, blankets and even robes. We loved the hot tub with views over the lake. The location of the boathouse was just perfect for us and the views were stunning! We took our own paddle boards and was so happy to be able to launch straight from the jetty to explore the lake. My daughter also loved feeding the ducks from the jetty. We have had a busy few days on local bike trails, hikes, paddle boarding, boating and having some lovely meals out in beautiful Bowness, but always looked forward to returning to the boathouse! We will definitely be returning! Thank you

Lovely cottage in a perfect location. Not even a minute from all of the restaurants, shops and bars of Windemere. House equipped with everything you need so would definitely stay again!

Perfect location. 10/10. I did not want to leave. Comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, unbelievable views, superb location, easy access to logs for fire with which my husband was delighted. 100% would return... tomorrow if it was possible! Our dog (border terrier) had a fantastic time too and was very interested in the wee hedgehog who appeared to be living in the bushes outside and the free range chickens!! There was also a free range doggo popping round to the garden in the evening. Vigilance/ Lead/ supervision was a must for our super inquisitive pup.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mary’s place. One of the best equipped kitchens we used over the years on Airbnb. The cottage is very clean and master bedroom bed is surprisingly beautiful. The view is stunning from Heaversham Head just as described by Mary. Great value for money considering its close location to Windmere. Highly recommend.

What a fantastic property and garden in such a quiet, lovely neighbourhood yet only 5 minutes’ walk to Bowness on Windermere shops and eating places, a few minutes further walk takes you to the lake and ferry terminal. The property was warm and homely, yet everything was pristine, all the rooms were immaculate, the kitchen was a pleasure to cook in, with plenty of utensils and cooking equipment, spotlessly clean. The ensuite bedrooms were beautiful as were the bathrooms. It has a huge driveway and great enclosed back garden with firepit and Weber BBQ, lots of seating, pity we were not able to take advantage of this due to the weather. The garden was very safe and enclosed for our dogs. We were able to adjust the heating temperature to suit, we really appreciated. Otto was fantastic and responded immediately to any queries before and during our holiday, as well as being pro-active from booking and throughout our week’s holiday. Thanks to the housekeeper who is doing a wonderful job.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning spa chalet with my partner, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Nestled in a peaceful setting, the chalet combines natural beauty with luxurious comfort. The atmosphere was serene and calming—perfect for unwinding and recharging. Inside, the chalet was beautifully designed, with cozy interiors, tasteful décor, and every modern comfort thoughtfully provided. It was spotless and well-maintained, and the attention to detail really showed. Thank you so much Lee!

We had a fantastic long weekend in the lodge. Absolutely stunning landscape and the lodge was beautiful. It had everything we needed and more! Thank you so much for a fantastic stay.

Thanks John for a excellent stay, your place was perfect for all our needs

We stayed at Simon and Belinda's place for a week and it was exactly what we needed. Fantastic location for walks and food. The Wainwright's Inn is only 0.2 miles away. Great food and local ales on your doorstep. The cottage is cosy, the kitchen is well equipped and the information provided was very thorough and useful. There are some books in the house they have prepared to show various walks and local recommendations. We did some of these walks and our 5 year old enjoyed every second! We took advantage of the leisure facilities at The Langdale. This was a great addition to the cottage! Really recommend if you want a place near to town locations, walks and local pubs/cafés/restaurants.

Loved our stay

Really enjoyed our stay, we were celebrating my Mother’s 90th birthday and had other family members staying in other lodges around the park. Beautiful scenery and great location. We’ll definitely be visiting again.

Beautiful caravan super spacious and clean. Fantastic location close to moorcombe bay. Lisa was extremely helpful from booking to checkout would defiantly recommend and stay again.

We had a wonderful 5 day stay! The caravan was perfect for our family of four (plus our dog) — cozy, spacious, and full of thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. What really stood out was the incredible attention to detail, especially for our pup — treats, a towel, and even a blanket were waiting for her. It was so heartwarming and showed how much care went into everything. Our host was amazing — Sam sent us great recommendations in advance for places to eat and things to do, which made our trip so much easier and more enjoyable. The fresh flowers and duck food left for us were such a lovely surprise — it truly felt like a personal and welcoming experience. We’re so grateful and would absolutely love to come back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a warm, pet-friendly getaway!

What a fabulous few days me and my boys had ..I’ve never seen them so relaxed (ages 35 and 37 )x I think it was the lovely energy we felt in the beautiful Nest xx looking out over the river each morning set us up for the day. Would recommend 100% , we had everything we needed ..I couldn’t fault it ..the bedrooms immaculate and the beds /bedding were soft clean and extremely comfortable. We enjoyed the gym and pool offer also x staff there were lovely at the Swan Hotel. Thank you xx

Thank you Sarah for making us feel welcome. The bunk house is a fantastic little stopover in a historic and beautiful area and has all the creature comforts you would expect (with a few extras) 🙂 I would recommend the bunk house to anyone passing through.

Had a fabulous time here for my husband's birthday. cottage was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. It was the little extras from Emma and Greg that made it super special. we'll definitely be back. I would definitely recommend - perfect xxx

Beautiful decorated cosy apartment. Louse was a great host. Very responsive. louise and Gav helped us to celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary with lovely thoughtful gifts and made us feel very welcome. The hot tub was an extra added bonus to the ample amenities. We will book again whenever we return to the area. We highly recommend it. Thanks Louise and Gav 😊 xx

Myself, my husband and our cocker spaniel found this a beautiful place to stay - even better than the photos! We found everything we might need for a cosy and comfortable few days, and the roll-top bath was the ultimate treat after cold, wet days on the fells! It was really convenient to walk into Kendal and to drive and explore the Eastern side of the beautiful Lake District. Trina was the perfect host - she had left lovely personal touches for our arrival, and was so helpful and kind throughout our stay. We would thoroughly recommend this gorgeous apartment to anyone visiting the Lakes.

We stayed at Lisa’s property for 2 nights in June. The place is gorgeous quirky and well put together. Lisa has accommodated lots of details for her guests in the house, whether you just want to relax or be sporty with walk’s and cycle storage. The house location is stunning with water running and sheep. The area is close to Coniston and all the main lakes as well as Windermere for a 35 minute drive. We toured about the area however there’s lots to do even if you just wish to relax with a book and gaze outside at the hills. There is a local boozer which works out a mile away by car we had an evening meal with starter and drinks. Angela and I wish to thank Lisa for a fantastic few days we plan again to rebook for next year for 3-4 days. Thankyou

Had the best weekend here with my partner and two dogs. Secure garden, which was really reassuring to be able to just let the dogs roam. Beautiful private setting half way down the valley. Jonathan and Claire were both really responsive which was really helpful. Will definitely be coming back! :)

We had a wonderful stay at Morven's. The cottage itself was beautiful and contained everything that we needed. The sauna was a unique addition! Everything had been considered and the small touches, such as the fresh herbs and the treats for the dogs really made us feel at home. Our hosts were quick to respond to a phone call and incredibly attentive to our needs. The village of Staveley is a hidden gem and we made good use of the Eagle & Child pub and the outrageously good bakery, More. I would highly recommend this stay and hope that we can return ourselves!

We had an amazing 2-night stay at Jane’s place. The house is absolutely beautiful and set in breathtaking surroundings—the photos really don’t do it justice, as the real thing is far more exquisite. The decor is warm and homely, yet spacious enough to comfortably fit the five of us. Both bathrooms were spotless—one with a shower and the other with a bathtub, which gave us the flexibility to choose. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, including ample fridge space. The garden is also worth mentioning—gorgeous and clearly very well cared for. We especially loved the fireplace; it truly felt like the cherry on top of an already perfect stay. The house manual was detailed and extremely helpful, covering everything we needed to know. Jane was a wonderful host—so warm and thoughtful. She welcomed us with a lovely letter and some delicious biscuits, which made us feel right at home from the start. Highly recommended!
