We were going to a friends 60th birthday party in the village of Blakesly Northants and as we live in Essex we needed a room for the night. Our friend suggested we try Kendal house and we were not disappointed! Our room was lovely, we were given tea and cake on arrival taken in the cosy sitting room by the... More

The B& B was booked well in advance of the visit but we were offered a room with a bathroom on the floor below after booking en suite. The room had just been vacated by a family member. It looked as though the bed had just been vacated! The room was dusty, untidy and full of the previous occupants belongings.... More

Myself, my husband and my son of 12 stayed here for the Moto GP 2012 which was taking place at Silverstone. The old house was very welcoming indeed as were the owners and their children. A most comfortable stay with an excellent breakfast. There was a great little pub just over the road too which was handy for a few... More

This is a very charming B&B. It is a beautifully quirky old house with heaps of character. The room we stayed in was huge, and had a super king size bed with a fantastic mattress, as well as a new en suite bathroom. Breakfast also lived up to the house its self. We had a full English breakfast that was... More

Myself and my partner stopped at this bed and breakfast when travelling down to the moto gp. Quite a difficult spot to find and not much parking available as on a very narrow road. After arriving, the owner booked us straight in at a restraunt for a meal which was kind of her and we were shown our room. A... More

Thankyou for your comments. As a relatively new B&B we take all our customers feedback very seriously. I assure you the room was clean and tidy with fresh bedding on the bed but I appologise if the bed looked un made. Obviously our guest bedrooms are set up all year round with plenty of drawer and wardrobe space, but the... More

We spent two nights at Kendal House at the weekend of the Historic Sports car Club Championships and booked all of the rooms for a reunion of fellow-apprentices from the 1960's (5 couples). Ian & Karyn made us all feel very welcome, and the whole place was full of character, quiet, and convenient for Silverstone circuit. We had the Guest... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Kendal House is an 18th century coaching inn, now converted into a large family home. Set over three floors, this beautifully restored building retains many original features whilst offering accommodation of the highest standard. We have 4 charming en-suite rooms available to guests. Rumour has it that both Winston Churchill and the Queen Mother have visited the property during the village's busier times. But these days our guests tend to choose us so that they can combine a visit to Silverstone racetrack with a relaxing stay in our peaceful village (only 10 minutes drive from the track). ... more   less
