There wasnt really anything we didnt like about this property.

The room was well equipped and very clean. The location was perfect for us as we had a restaurant booking in Cartmel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the accommodation was really good value for money.

Water pressure of shower but to be fair it's a problem for the area, also window didn't shut in room so can be noisy in the morning. Again no shakes for me as I use ear plugs but one to be aware of

Great choice and quality of breakfast, great location and comfortable rooms. Good food of an evening and great staff

We would have possibly upgraded our room as the double is quite small

The bar meal and breakfast are amazing

Not so much a dislike but the property is historic, tall folk should watch their heads! Floors a bit slopey and rough plaster. It has character! Probably not suitable for those unsteady on their feet.

Staff are lovely, food is really good quality. Location is perfect.

The bathroom light kept going out when I was in the shower - could do with a bit longer on the sensor if possible (room 2)

Perfect location and really comfortable, clean rooms.

There was some misunderstanding about a dinner table arrangement, but it was nicely fixed bt the staff.

My 1st anniversary return to Cavindish, with my new British wife. Enjoyed the stay, nice all around. Hope to return again.

Didn’t dislike anything but having a shower would have been preferred rather than a bath and mixer tap.

Location, history and comfort.

Perfect location, bar was lovely staff very helpful. Breakfast was perfect.

Could do with hooks on the back of the door for wet coats. Internet wasn’t very good in the room (room 1). Had to hotspot off my phone. No parking at the venue. The automatic light in the bathroom wasn’t great as it was very disturbing if you need to use the loo in the night.

Lovely setting, historic building, helpful staff, great breakfast. Clean comfortable room.

Being allocated to another room next morning knowing that there was building works going on in the building next door.

Food was excellent. We changed rooms due to building work and noise at 7.30am. Our change to a different room was excellent. Breakfast was limited but very good but extras would have been better.

We've just left The Cavendish after a one night stay and couldn't wait to write a review. Wow - what a place. I've been to The Cavendish before for food and drinks and it has always been a favourite of mine in Cartmel however I had never stayed over before. I booked the room and told my partner how amazing the place is for food and drinks - she was expecting big things and The Cavendish did not fail to deliver. We stayed in room 7 which we felt lucky to have been allocated with its view over the back garden and with the priory in sight. The room was lovely, spacious, warm and had great tea and coffee facilities. The bed was very comfortable and there was absolutely no noise from the pub downstairs. A classic Inn-style room. Onto the food. I had had food at The Cavendish before and my last visit I had the steak and ale pie which I was delighted to see had been kept on the menu. To start we had the mackerel croquettes and crab croutes which were both lovely. Great portion sizes and very tasty. I had to have the steak and ale pie again and it was just as nice as the last time I had it. OUTSTANDING. One of the nicest restaurant pie's I've ever had - cannot recommend it enough. The side of chips and sweet red cabbage are perfect accompaniments. My partner had the chicken and gnocchi dish which she was stunned by. I think the chicken has genuinely had a profound impact on her as she's still talking about it 24hrs later and I suspect she will be doing so until we return to The Cavendish. Tender, juicy and perfectly seasoned chicken. Unbelievable dish. The asparagus and peas were cooked to perfection. For dessert we had the sticky toffee pudding and lemon posset. Both were amazing and the lemon posset was a perfect palette cleanser after our mains. The staff are lovely, attentive and can't do enough for you. Breakfast is included with your stay. Again, brilliant food.
