Late booking for Scafell Pike trip. Helpful staff on phone to accommodate our late arrival. Good breakfast. Room perfectly fine for our one night stay. Very good price.

After climbing the scafell pike, we went straight to this hotel. The staffs were really kind especially to the old man. You can really see the passion in his work . The hotel was amazing because it’s clean and well maintained. They also have a restaurant so you don’t have to go outside to look for a food which is really inconvenient idea for those who are tired from climbing. I guess we tried to book for an uber eats, deliveroo etc but they don’t have it in that area. The food was great and they have a free breakfast as well.

The original room was next to the kitchen exit on the ground floor, with a view of the exit, which did not lend itself to privacy. The hotel did allow us to move to the room above, however we could hear staff conversing loudly at 1030pm which we felt was very inconsiderate. The hairdryer broke instantly when I tried to use it and the bathroom door did not lock. I've given the hotel 2 stars on the basis of the breakfast offering only and sadly would not recommend couples to stay here.

I stayed at Kellbank Hotel with friends, we all loved staying here. The staff were amazing and went above and beyond to make our stay so enjoyable. A great example of Cumbrian hospitality. We ate at the hotel both nights of our stay and enjoyed all our evening meals. There was plenty of choice at breakfast time and provided a good start to the day playing golf at a local course. The rooms and all the communal areas were spotless. I would definitely recommend staying here.

We had such a lovely meal at The Kellbank! They were kind enough to fit 11 of us in with only a few hours notice. The food was delicious and they have a great selection of drinks. We were too full for a pudding but they looked incredible. The best thing about the place is the staff, however. They were so friendly and welcoming, especially the fantastic chap behind the bar who has been there for 14 years - I’m sorry I didn’t catch his name but it was also his excellent welcome last year that made us return this year, even though we were staying a 15min drive away.

Comfy beds and spacious rooms. All staff polite and welcoming. Kids loved the park. Location was ideal as we walked up Scafell pike with the car park only 25 mins away. Had breakfast and evening meals and really enjoyed both. Overall a great break.

Nice little hotel. Breakfast good, dinner average. Smell of new paint where I stayed but I suppose decorating needs to be done at some time. Stayed in room 6 and bed very uncomfortable and a very large mirror just left on table and not on wall. Staff were pleasant.
