The Kellbank

Loved the place will be staying again soon Food brilliant staff down to earth good pub better than pub food and nice warm rooms

What I needed

Great place. Only problem was a high pitched whistle sound at about 5, 5.30am

The property was very good. Fantastic views of scafell pike and surrounding area. We stayed in a pod and was surprised at how big and comfortable it was. The dining facilities were excellent. Great choice and ample serving..also the dinner menu available was very good and dined there every night due to the excellent choice and portions. Thank you for a greatt weekend away from the hustle and bustle of city li

Stayed in a cosy room, which was ample size for us both. Lovely & warm. Dog friendly & they allowed us to have breakfast in the bar. Breakfast was delicious & lots of choices. Very close to many lovely walks.

I stayed in the cabin and it was nice and cozy, the walk to breakfast was super short and easy though so I didn’t feel like I was out of place compared to being in the hotel room. Breakfast was really nice, plenty of options, delicious and a chill atmosphere. The cabin itself was gorgeous, overlooking the mountains and inside was a cozy space. Although it was small, it’s the perfect size for me and my partner. Bathroom was really clean and the shower was great. We had a small fridge and freezer to put what we needed in and the tv worked well when used. The staff were nice and accommodating, generally calm and chill which was nice. Overall I highly recommend this hotel to stay if you want to climb Scafell and see what the area has to offer, it was only a 20 minute drive to Scafell as well so a great location.

Nicely equipped cabin in the grounds with beautiful views

Excellent two night stay,food was really good & dog friendly.Only had 1 issue but it was dealt with straight away.Nice relaxing break,would definitely book again.

The room was comfortable and the meals in the on-site restaurant were delicious.

Lovely place to stay clean loved the pod easy parking and great breakfast

Love hotel, staff could and management could not do enough for us and.made.us feel really welcome. The breakfast is very good as well!

Very helpful staff. Great bar with food. Our pod was very comfortable. Beautiful views.

Hotel was amazing. Food was first class an amazing chef.Phil the barman was 10 out of 10. Richard the owner made us so welcome and even bought us a drink to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. And very dog friendly would definitely recommend.

Nice place, great food and drink. Breakfast is super. Rooms are good and the shower in our room was great. Parking and the layout of the place was great. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again

Really lovely stay and great with the dog, free treats for them in the bar. Food was really great too and they offer gluten free options at breakfast which was delicious. Great location a short drive to the lakes and a supermarket within walking distance.

We got given room #1 which was the disabled access room and was very big with a huge bed and big bathroom, slight issue with the shower as did not get very hot (informed staff) was ground level with patio access so great for nipping to car, the evening meal was fabulous we got the Kellbank Burger & local farmers potatoe homemade chips which were proper good, big portion of choc brownie desert each and a couple of beers and price was very reasonable for the quality of food, we was up for brekkie at 7am for full english before a quick short wet hike, returned to nice warm room but still tepid shower, all in all its our goto place when in the area and will be back soon

An amazing stay just what we needed for a weekend away. The food served there is top notch fresh and tasty. The pod was clean and well presented . People were friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay.

Stayed in one of the cabins - compact but spotless, warm (in January!) and comfortable - only very slight problem was the heating control which is a tad over complicated but did not in any way detract from our stay....own transport essential...fantastic location...food great and a great, welcoming staff team.

This place was awesome and would highly recommend it. They accommodated a room suitable for my mother and pulled a fold out bed for me as our original room was on the first floor. Room was spotless and the breakfast was a good size and lovely. Main meals we had in the bar seating area has we had our dog with us. Both main meals were a good size a lovely. The steak sour dough bread meal was amazing and the fish and chips was also lovely. Hard to believe this place is only 3 stars.

Hsd a fantastic overnight stay. Phil and the team could not have been more welcoming and this is easily the most dog friendly accommodation in the Lakes, maybe even UK. We will 100% be back in 2024
