Property code: OC-GL097

Ideal for couples or a family, this vibrant and welcoming cottage can also accommodate up to five (yes, five!) canine companions. It’s close to the heart of Kendal, and the river and parks are nearby, too – perfect for your furry friends to stretch their legs.

This terraced Lakeland-stone cottage has a bright, contemporary interior that complements its traditional beams and sash windows. Hang your leads on the dedicated hooks and step into the open-plan lounge, which has comfortable seating for four and a dining table at one end. Take two steps down to the adjacent kitchen, which is equipped with a dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge, freezer and all the equipment you’ll need to create delicious meals during your holiday. The two comfortable bedrooms are upstairs, a double and a king-size (twin on request), sharing a sleek family bathroom.

The cottage is just steps from the bustling centre of historic Kendal, and its position close to the river and within 100 metres of three parks makes it ideal for easy walks with your four-pawed friends. Enjoy exploring the mostly pedestrianised streets of the town, where there’s a great choice of shops, a twice-weekly market and a variety of places to eat and drink (many of them dog friendly). For a great picnic or a romantic walk, join the trail (50 metres from the cottage) up to Kendal Castle, a 12th century ruin on top of a hill, or jump in the car and venture 5 miles to the National Trust’s 1,600-acre estate at Sizergh, where there are miles and miles of paths and woodlands to explore.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 double, 1 king-size/twin
  • 1 bathroom with shower over the bath and WC
  • Oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer
  • TV
  • Private parking for 1 car, the cottage is conveniently located close to a main road and is easily accessible by car
  • Pub 0.1 miles, shop 0.2 miles, beach 7 miles
  • Arrival: 16:00 onwards
  • Departure: before 10:00

Lovely cottage. Cosy and warm. Very well equipped through out. Bedding and towels lovely and clean. Although there is no garden, there are grassed arrears both sides of the river, very close by to take the dogs to. Thank you we really enjoyed our stay!

Greyhound cottage was a fabulous place to stay, warm and well equipped, lovely comfy beds and sofas. Had a load of books, games and dvds to keep us amused too. An ideal location for exploring Kendal, just cross the bridge outside the cottage and youre in the main town. A designated parking space outside the back door in the courtyard was ideaRead morel. Our greyhounds loved it, lots of nice river walks and lots of dog friendly places to eat and visit. There is no garden there but there are grass areas across the road right outside which were very handy. Highly recommend this place, we will be back there soon. Hide
