Great hotel, staff accommodating and helpful. Great facilities. Asked for a little birthday message in the room and was left with a lovely message and card with chocolate plate with romantic petals and towel swans. Great touch.
My partner had a massage and stated it was one of the best massages she had.
Couldn't recommend highly enough. Will definitely be back.

I loved how warm and dry the room was after getting half drowned up Ingleborough. Water boarding at Guantanamo Bay would have been less wet. The mattress was lovely and soft, though I think I could have slept on a pile of discarded brick ends with how tired I was.

It’s the perfect balance of tranquility, scenery and amenities. The area offers plenty of walking routes for all abilities. There is plenty of choice for eating out in Arnside and Milnthorpe isn’t very far for more choices

Lovely coastal village,two pubs and a fairly recently opened wine bar. Cafes and gift shops by the waterside, a pharmacy and general food store as well. Fish and chip shop,so all needs catered for. Train station serving the coast and inland, and loads of walks both through and around the village, and further afield as well. Handy of course for the Lake District, and a lovely peaceful place at night.

The hotel was pretty much as advertised with the exception that I wa unable to use the EV charger. Travelling by EV, this is an essential element to our travels. If you are travelling by an ICE vehicle - this is irrelevant to you. If you are travelling by EV - beware.

If you want a quiet retreat to walk on beaches & up hills...
If you want a quiet retreat to walk on beaches & up hills then Arnside has it all. There is a parade of shops with a chippy, a couple of cafes, touristy shops & art galleries & 2 small mini marts, one of which has a post office counter.
If you want a raging nightlife then it's probably not the place for you.
But I needed a quiet, tranquil, friendly place with great views & good beach walks where I could unwind from the previous very stressful months.
There are also lots of places to visit, either by car or train. I plan to come again more than once as my 3 nights away didn't allow much time to explore further

Lovely area.
Lovely area. Walks nearby up Arnside Knott with fantastic views, walks around coast and round Silverdale. Rspb site at Leighton moss. Reliable train service to places such as Cark, Ulverston and Carnforth enable cheap and easy access to areas to explore. Lake District is accessible,
but we found plenty to see and explore nearer to Arnside. Accommodation is fine. Has all you need.

Arnside is popular but relatively quiet.
Arnside is popular but relatively quiet. Has a great mix of small independent shops, pubs, etc, great for walks, think you can walk along foreshore all the way to morecambe, and inland up to Arnside knott. Gorgeous views across the estuary towards grant over sands. Publican at fighting cock recommended taking train across from Arnside Station to Ulverston which I can imagine would be a delightful ride. In the end we went by car , but we were pleasantly surprised by Ulverston. Not somewhere that’s ever been on our radar, despite spending a lot of time in and around the lakes. Great independent shops as well as lots of quirky houses and architecture. Lots of cheap parking. Well worth a visit .
This is a beautiful cottage with lots of lovely little touches to it.
It is quite a walk to the nearest shop on quite a steep hill.
The nearest pub is just a little further than the shop.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay as we have a Springer Spaniel, so we enjoyed the plentiful areas to walk and as a bonus the pubs are dog friendly so we got to call in for a couple of drinks after our walks.
Arnside is perfect and Kentwood is ideally situated. views of the estuary were great and the garden is lovely.
Breakfast was excellent and set you up for the day ahead.
The hosts David and Alexander were very friendly and helpful.
The apartment was great and provided a brilliant base of operations for our trip up to Cumbria and the lakes. Arnside is a lovely village with views over the surrounding hills and the bay, also having some great walks in the area.
Gorgeous big house with loads of character, perfect for a big group to have a lovely time together. Loved the location in beautiful Arnside with great pubs, food all in walking distance & a very handy shop just next door.
Arnside and silverdale is a fantastic location for a holiday . Ye old fighting cocks was in a good location right by the estuary and the train station . It had a big bath and hot water .
All the staff were very welcoming and friendly. We had a very tasty dinner and breakfast in the restaurant.
The location next to the beach and Arnside was brilliant
