The Arches Apartments

The Arches Apartments consists of two fantastic apartments set over the first and second floor of a building in the heart of Kendal, Cumbria. This collection offers high-quality accommodation, with well-equipped kitchens, access to a shared utility, inviting sitting areas, contemporary shower rooms, and tastefully decorated bedrooms, making them ideal for couples, friends and families. Nestled in a stunning 1861 building, originally commissioned by Samuel Gowith, a renowned snuff manufacturer, The Arches Apartments offer a unique blend of history and modern luxury. At the time of its construction, the building was considered visionary, with its Italianate design setting a new standard for Kendal's architectural landscape. Meticulously restored to the highest standards, the apartments retain their original charm while seamlessly incorporating contemporary touches, providing a perfect retreat with both historical elegance and modern comfort. Right on your doorstep, you will find all you need to enjoy a memorable self-catered stay in Cumbria, including well-stocked convenience stores, the welcoming eateries of Comida, Jintana Thai, Brew Brothers and Indie Craft Bar , along with the attractions of the Quaker Tapestry Museum, Kendal Museum, Kendal Castle, Kendal Snowsports Club, the excellent Kendal Golf Club and KendalWall.

Foodies can venture to nearby Bowness-on-Windermere for Michelin Star dining at the popular restaurants of Henrock, Gilpin Spice and HRiSHi.
