Shakespeare Inn  

In the heart of Kendal town centre — the gateway to the Lake District. Minutes from The Quaker Tapestry Museum, Kendal Castle and the Brewery Arts Centre, and within a short drive of Lake District National Park, Lake Windermere and the Yorkshire Dales.

A newly refurbished English pub with intimate, en-suite B&B rooms tucked into a peaceful rear courtyard. Expect cosy converted cottages (many with their own front door), garden views and a friendly, town-centre vibe that’s family-friendly and perfect for walkers.

On-site restaurant and bar serving traditional cask ales, a garden to relax in, free self-parking and complimentary Wi‑Fi throughout. Extras include a children’s playroom, table tennis and evening entertainment like karaoke.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property keeps you connected. Free on-site parking adds convenience for business or leisure stays.

Hearty home-made food using local suppliers, from breakfast through to lunch and dinner — think traditional Sunday roast and a daytime snack and sandwich menu. The bar/lounge pours a wide range of cask ales and is a cosy spot for a pint after a day in the fells.
