I booked into Balcony House because it was near to where I was working that week. What an absolute delight. I was so well looked after that by the end of my stay I felt like I had known Mandy and Brian all my life. They did not intrude but they where there ready to help and advise whenever I... More

For some reason my review did not register. Anyhow, stayed in March again and this place just gets better. From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, its like going to see family. The warm welcome, the lovely breakfast as always and the hosts of Mandy and Brian compliment each other. Yet again with my work have been... More

I was amazed at what was offered for the price at this guest house. It is within reasonable walking distance of town (with offers of a lift into town and special offers to restaurants), has the most comfortable bed with en suite bathroom (room 1) and even a sofa! There are lots of very thoughtful touches like an iron and... More

We stayed here for 1 night as we were walking the Dales Way. What a lovely B&B. That day's walk finished about 1 mile from the B&B and would have meant we walked along a busy road. When we called Brian and Mandy, they were very accommodating and agreed to collect us from the end of the walk, which was... More

That, and Abbot Hall gallery! My partner and I stayed at Balcony House for 3 nights during the Easter break this year, and we really enjoyed it. The pretty B&B looks over an industrial estate in Kendal (which admittedly is not the best views in the Lake District) but there is something funny about that - and it's within easy... More

My husband and I stayed at the Balcony House with our 8 month old daughter and shall definitely be returning!! Brian and Mandy were the nicest people and couldn't do enough for us!! We were supposed to stay for 2 nights but had to cut our trip short as our daughter wasn't very well with the chicken pox and we... More

My girlfriend and I stopped at Balcony House for 2 night in April this year and I cannot speak highly enough of this establishment. From the very first moment Mandy and Brian were the perfect hosts, even offering to come back from a shopping trip early when I phoned to say that we'd arrived an hour earlier than anticipated! The... More

I got 2 nights at Balcony House as a birthday treat and it was a treat! The house and hosts were lovely. Beautifully decorated rooms and lots of little extras that made it special, from chocolates in the room when you arrived, to extra toiletries you wouldn't normally expect e.g. face wipes. Great location - only a short walk from... More

This is an ideal place to stay when in Kendal. The accommodation is beautiful, excellent facilities and the best part is the couple who run Balcony House. From the minute you arrive Mandy and Brian make you feel like you are part of the family and ensure that you know that nothing is too much bother - which is a... More
