Owners are very friendly and accommodating. Room is very tired and need of updating. Breakfast (included) and main meal (optional extra) were excellent value and very tasty.

The whole place stank of old cooking oil. Sticky dirty bannisters. The bed linen and crockery were clean. I had booked for a few nights but left after one as could not sleep because of the disgusting smell.

The property is in a poor state of repair but the bed was comfy, the shower was warm, the breakfast was nice and the lady was friendly. Kirkby Lonsdale was a nice town in a beautiful area and the Ingleton Waterfalls trail nearby was breathtaking.

Just what I wanted
I stayed at the Copper Kettle because it was a relatively short drive to the Howgills where I wanted to do some walking. I thought the price fo rmy stay was very reasonable and included breakfast (what I really wanted) and a packed lunch. The double room was spacious although the en-suite was a bit cramped but it was okay for me.
The accommodation met all my requirements and I would have no hesitation in staying here in the future.

Enjoyable stay
Friendly, helpful owners who greeted us and showed us where to park. Very central location in a beautiful town near countryside. Super breakfast with lovely porridge, full English, and extra coffee. Dated decor but for the price and experience excellent value.
