Kent Cottage is a two-bedroom terrace situated off Stramongate in Kendal, a 5-minutes walk from the town centre and a 5-minutes walk from the Kendal train station and the bus station. Decorated to a high standard, this self-catering property is ideal for families, friends or guests visiting Kendal for business. With excellent transport links and dedicated off-street parking, Kent Cottage is easy to get reach.
Accessed from Grosvenor Court, a quiet yard, you enter into the light and bright living room that comprises two two-seater sofas and an armchair. The wall-mounted smart TV benefits from Netflix* and other streaming services. In the living room corner, in front of the sizeable double-glazed sash window, is a square dining table for four guests. Off the living room is the newly-fitted modern kitchen, perfect for cooking up a meal when you don't fancy one of the many restaurants in town.
Upstairs is two bedrooms, a double and a single, and the bathroom. Both bedrooms are beautifully decorated and light, thanks to the large sash windows. Carpets have been removed to reveal the original wood floorboards, which are stunning and complemented by the contrasting white clothes storage units. The bathroom comprises a bath with a shower over, a basin and a loo—airing cupboard in the corner.
Overall, Kent Cottage is a fantastic choice of accommodation to explore Kendal and the Lake District.

About The Location
Stramongate is part of Kendal's one-way road system and a short 2-minute stroll to the River Kent. The upper-end of the road is also a fresh veg market on a Wednesday and a Saturday Market day - popular with residents. The locality of the town centre is ideal for visiting one of the many restaurants, cafe's, coffee shops, real ale and gin bars.
Kendal train station links to Windermere train station and Oxenholme train station on the West Coast mainline, with frequent trains between London Euston and Glasgow Central. Also nearby is the Kendal bus station, where you can catch the 555 Lake Explorer, an hourly service between Kendal and Keswick, stopping at Staveley, Windermere, Ambleside, Rydal, Grasmere and Keswick. Daily tickets are available from the driver or bus app, which is a great way to see the Lakes without the car and associated car parking charges.
