My partner and I stayed at Kirkstone for 2 nights in early August. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The staff at the Inn were very friendly and helpful. The local food and the ale they serve was of a good quality and the new chef is a scream. As Richard said in his response to another review Rome was not built... more

The perfect spot to chill out and relax. No noisy neighbours, no loud music, no fruit machines, total peace and quiet! Bliss! Good luck to... more

This was my third stay at the Inn in the last two years. It has it's problems but for all that it's a great location and relatively cheap. My previous concerns are still evident to some extent.
