About this place Lyndhurst Guest House

Lyndhurst Guest House, a small gay-owned B&B, occupies a late-Victorian house on South Road in Kendal, where owner Yvonne holds court. It's on a quiet street near Nether Bridge and Abbot Hall, a short stroll from the town centre. You're five minutes' walk from the pubs and the Brewery Arts Centre. Kendal's a decent base for exploring the Lake District - Windermere's about 20 minutes away by car or train. Reviews of Lyndhurst are glowing, with a 4.8 rating from around 100 people, who rave about Yvonne and her breakfasts. Don't expect to book a room at short notice in summer or on bank holidays, though - it's small, and they fill up fast. There's not much of a gay scene in Kendal itself; for that, you'll need to head to Manchester.
