    “We loved your unique cottage and location; this was our second stay.”

    It suits us in a peaceful, remote and beautiful setting. We were very appreciative of the care and attention given to the gardens and surrounds. Thanks very much, we had a lovely week. Perhaps an upgrade of the crockery is needed? The cooker seemed very fierce, but we soon got used to it. One of the spot lights above the sink was flickering and may need attention/replacing.

The historic, South Lakeland village of Cartmel is renowned as the prettiest village in the Lake District.

The village features pretty streamside walks, quaint cobbled streets littered with antique shops, a charming gift shop, welcoming, traditional pubs serving real ale, the nationally acclaimed, Michelin Star awarded L'Enclume restaurant, and the Cartmel Village shop, which sells the famous sticky toffee pudding. Take advantage of excellent walking opportunities amidst beautiful, unspoilt countryside, visit The National Hunt Racecourse, Campbell Legend Bluebird Exhibition, Lakeland Motor Museum and Holker Hall with its spectacular gardens, all of which are close by. The quiet seaside retreat of Grange-over-Sands, with its Edwardian buildings and mountain backdrop, is a mere 2 miles away, whilst Windermere, with its panoramic views over England's longest lake, is within a thirty minute drive.
