We had a unexpected stay at The Rainbow Tavern due to the tavern we had previously booked going bust on the day of our arrival ( Union Tavern Kendal) After much searching we eventually found a tavern that was willing to accommodate 9 lads on a 40 th birthday bash. I believe the new tenant Andy and his partner have... More

Stayed at the rainbow tavern recently and we all had a great time. The accommodation was bright and clean. The hosts were very friendly, The bar area clean and tidy. The beer was flowing nicely and tasted better here than in some of the public houses we visited. Well done girls

I stayed here recently and cannot believe the other reviews! The two owners were very friendly and couldn't do enough for my friend and I. This is a work in progress with two women trying hard to rescue a hotel that had been run into the ground by the previous managers. Our accommodation was excellent and the linen and towels... More

Stayed here in July with my partner, when we arrived we were greeted by 2 very unfriendly women who were very rude.

There are rooms available which we may try next time, and the... More

After accepting a booking for a stag do for 14 proceeded to shout at us and make us feel uncomfortable for talking in our room at 3:00am both the Friday and the Saturday night. What did they expect!? The thing is its probably only fit for Stag and Hen parties anyway. We were also charged £30 for Linnen costs as... More

Stayed here a couple of weeks ago for a girlie weekend getaway with my mate. It was perfect. Fab location right in the centre of town so all the bars and restaurants are right on your foorstep. The hotel is under new management and Sharon and Carol made us feel so welcome and we had a real giggle with them... More
