Excellent Dining Experience

“The food at Stonecross Manor was simply sumptuous. I indulged in both breakfast and dinner, and I must say, it was the best hotel food I've ever had. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order, and each dish was made to perfection. For dinner, my mouth watered over the quality and size of the portions, which exceeded my expectations.” view full review

I enjoyed my stay at Stonecross Manor Hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was modern and spacious. However, I did experience some issues as the main areas needed more cleaning, and the sauna was out of order. Overall, it was a lovely place to relax close to Kendal.

I had a mixed experience at Stonecross Manor Hotel. While the friendly staff and comfortable beds were noteworthy, there were several maintenance issues such as a missing smoke alarm and weak TV signal that affected my stay. The breakfast was delicious, particularly the full English, although I was disappointed that they ran out of smoked salmon on my second day.

I had a fantastic stay at Stonecross Manor Hotel. The staff was super welcoming, especially Amy and Hazel, who really made me feel at home. The food, including breakfast, was delicious and the pool and spa facilities were great. However, my room, while spacious, felt a bit dark and the decor wasn't quite as modern as the rest of the hotel, which was a minor letdown.

My stay at Stonecross Manor was a mix of comfort and some minor disappointments. The room I had was cozy but felt quite hot, and the amenities could use a few extra touches. On the upside, I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast and the friendly staff, but I would recommend considering dining options outside of the hotel for a better atmosphere.

Rooms

The small double room was comfortable but very warm, even with the radiator turned off and the window open. I did notice a couple of minor details that could be improved, like mismatched mugs and biscuits past their best before date, which seemed a bit careless.
