    “Fantastic location and spacious, comfortable accommodation with plenty of parking and a secure garden for dogs.”

    Highly recommend it for local walks and a good base to explore the southern lakes area. Cartmel village is a delight if you like to eat/drink out as there's plenty of places to choose from. The kitchen is very well equipped, the only things we were missing was a smaller pan and a small dish/bowl for the microwave, most of the cookware was sized for larger meals rather than a light supper (not a criticism! We all have different ways of doing things). Bedrooms and bathrooms were great.
