“Had a lovely week at the cottage.”

Everything we needed was there, lovely furnished and comfy beds etc. Being a bit picky new outdoor furniture would be great if you are advertising the outside space - it was a sun trap on our visit! A little bistro table and chairs in the kitchen would be good, there's lots of room, and please shorten the lights above the dining table, we all banged our heads on the shades. Cottage details need updating however, the Rose and Crown pub which you mention closed over 2 years ago, also details of ...

Everything we needed was there, lovely furnished and comfy beds etc. Being a bit picky new outdoor furniture would be great if you are advertising the outside space - it was a sun trap on our visit! A little bistro table and chairs in the kitchen would be good, there's lots of room, and please shorten the lights above the dining table, we all banged our heads on the shades. Cottage details need updating however, the Rose and Crown pub which you mention closed over 2 years ago, also details of refuse collections -we were woken on the Tuesday morning to the sound of the collection wagon and it was too late to put the rubbish out. But have to say ideal cottage near station, Holker Hall, Flookburgh, Cartmel and Grange. Very nice and would recommend.

“Excellent high quality , beautifully decorated, well appointed, comfortable stay.”

- Anne, May 2024
Frances May 2024

“Extremely comfortable with easy walking to all the amenities.”

It's in need of some minor maintenance such as, the shower drips, new stair carpet and the central heating doesn't work very well. The house instructions are not very clear and you can see they are years old, as it mentions the rose and crown which has been shut for at least 2 years. We liked it and will stay there again. It was clean and comfortable.

“This is a gorgeous cosy cottage which with a little extra care could be deluxe!”

All the bed linen and towels need replacing, they are very tired and old. The towels are very small, faded and mismatched and not very soft! They all need washing and changing after each guest too! The kitchen is delightful and lovely in the sunshine, it needs a little table and chairs ! The outside area is lovely too and with a small amount of effort could be made very welcoming and is a suntrap! The cleaning of the property needs reviewing urgently especially the kitchen utensils, cooker and crockery. Also the smell in the utility cupboard needs looking at and a red diffuser doesn't cover it up! All windows sills need to be kept clean, we had to clean them all especially the downstairs window sill near the stairs as it's very damp and peeling paint is falling off! This incidentally is where we found 2 poor quality toilet rolls! How hard is it to put them in the bathroom? The main room is cosy and warm and the log burner is lovely...2 days supply of wood would be nice! We paid good money to stay and would love to again but are put off by the lack of attention and cleanliness! Finally, we couldn't find the "welcome pack" or the guest book! They were on a shelf in the dining area! We left them on the coffee table! We hope our comments assist the owner to make some important improvements and transform this lovely cottage once again!

“The cottage was clean and well equipped and all adverse comments on previous reviews had been rectified.”

We loved the situation of the cottage in the Southern Lakes enabling us to visit an area that we had not previously visited

“The property was, in general great.”

Some information of where to park would have been useful. I did not feel happy leaving the car on the pavement next to the cottage because this blocked the pavement to pedestrians, but you had to do this because the house is on a bend and the road was surprisingly busy with big trucks and tractors passing by. Had the car been off the pavement to allow pedestrians to pass there would have been a real risk of collision. We parked in a little open lay-by area in front of next-door but one's house. I did not feel happy doing this, although noone asked us to move during the week. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. We always do much self-catering rather than eating out, so a decent sized kitchen was a welcome change with plenty of work-surface and utensils. The kitchen tap was bizarre because it was more of a spray than a smooth flow so this took some getting used to. The lights over the dining table were too low. Although this looks "cool", if I hit my head once, I hit it a dozen more times. I'm glad I didn't break the glass shade. The bathroom was small but fully functional and it was nice to have a shower space of a decent size, rather than the tiny cubicles found in so many holiday cottages which can be a challenge to actually shower in. We slept in the bedroom to the right of the top of the stairs. The mattress was comfy if a little dippy (due to wear) and the pillows had seen better days and were cheap and flimsy. The linen was also of a very basic quality and although I didn't actually look, I would have been surprised if there had been pillow protectors which I think are essential for multiple occupancy and should be changed after each set of guests - but this goes for anywhere. This sounds like I'm having a moan and I'm really not. As I said, the cottage was great and we enjoyed our stay. I do feel however that it is important that the owners receive an honest critique

“Great cottage ideal base for tutoring the lakes.”

- Antony, August 2023
Graham August 2023

“Definitely a damp smell/issue, particularly in the rear scullery.”

I suspect this is due to the ground level at the rear being almost up to window sill level and an issue with tanking/damp proofing. Otherwise the property is very nice.

- Graham, August 2023
Ian July 2023

“Adequately pleasant, clean and comfortable enough.”

Towels and bedding were changed mid stay which was good. Could have done with a bit more food storage space and fewer glasses and mugs. Everything worked well that should have done. Village pleasant with good facilities but much more traffic noise than expected. Shower good but urgently needs an anti-slip mat and a grab rail.

Just wanted to what a lovely cottage with everything you need on the down side a smell of damp when walking in the house this is only a small point being a old property it can be a a bit off putting to someone but loved the house and where it's situated calk

Catherine December 2022

“What a lovely cottage, clean and homely.”

Kitchen has everything you need and more, plenty of room for a family of 4 and a dog! Would stay again. Fantastic location for visiting parts of the lakes, shop and pub less than 5 minutes from the door.

- Catherine, December 2022
Sally September 2022

“Mulberry Cottage was well equipped, clean and comfortable.”

Two decent pubs within easy walking distance, although opening times at The Engine were a bit sketchy! Two critiscms - they really need to sort out the damp/musty smell in the cottage, overwhelming sometimes, and the outside furniture was broken, therefore unusable. Cark is situated for easy access to Southern Lakes.

- Sally, September 2022
Brian August 2022

“We would rate this cottage very average although we recognise investment in furniture for example.”

No refuse was collected and as the bin was already full when we arrived we were unable to make use of waste disposal other than recyclable that we had to take up to the station. Replacing the green bin outside with a grey bin might solve this as all in the village have grey bins that were emptied on Wednesday. Apart from traffic that you can’t do anything about, the worse thing was the smell of dampness . We were forced to keep windows open to reduce smell and all our clothes have to be cleaned to remove impregnated smell. Quite awful.

- Brian, August 2022
Mike July 2022

“Inside: Nice furnishings and well presented with attractive pictures and ornaments.”

Well equipped kitchen, plenty of crockery and cutlery. A small dishwasher would be nice. Property was a bit musty on arrival. A mirror is needed in the smaller bedroom. Outside: Not brilliant, furniture in poor condition, this space needs improvement.

- Mike, July 2022
Tracy July 2022

“This property is really lovely, small and quaint and nicely furnished.”

Its comfortable and well equipped with everything you need. On arrival we were greeted by a dirty rug in the living room which wasn't that impressive as you enter the property straight from the road into the living are so this is the first thing we saw. The property is situated on the main road in the village which can be quite noisy for a couple of hours early in the morning, I presume when people are going to work, and farm traffic also make use of this road too. Also people leaving both pubs in the village will pass bye late at night, so if its peace and quiet you are looking for then this is not the place for you. The cottage was an ideal 'base' for sight seeing the local area and we travelled around a lot during the day, most places are very easy to get to. All the shops in the villages close really early so bare this in mind and if you need somewhere to eat at night then you MUST book in advance. We enjoyed our holiday and the lake district really is a beautiful place, but wouldn't return to Cark.

Maryse October 2021

“Lovely little cottage in a great location!”

Attention to the details and kitchen fully equipped. The sitting sofas just need updating and the throws were a bit rough. Sykes were very flexible and made our stay more enjoyable.

- Maryse, October 2021
Linda September 2021

“What a wonderful cottage.”

Everything was as described and there nothing that was not provided, down to a dog bowl and rubber gloves. The kitchen was better stocked than my own! A perfect base to explore the lakes.

- Linda, September 2021
Louise August 2021

“Mulberry Cottage is very sweet, well proportioned and has a good layout - an ideal holiday cottage - unfortunately it had a strong smell of damp.”

The damp could be seen on the walls and my clothes did smell after being kept in the main bedroom wardrobe. Bedding was all clean and fresh however the pillows were incredibly hard it was like sleeping on a slab of concrete so if that isn’t your thing you might want to take your own. The kitchen is very well stocked with pretty much all the equipment you might need - the only minor downside being that there is little room left in the cupboards to store your own food. The bathroom/shower were great although only two cheap toilet rolls were left for three adults for a week - we obviously had to buy some more half way through the week. Bath towels were supplied but if you would like a sheet take your own. Parking wasn’t really an issue we managed to get very close all week, just make sure you don’t go an inch too far over someone’s pathway as you will get told off. The courtyard was sweet - rather overlooked but fine, unfortunately our dog also would not go for a wee there because of the lack of grass we had to keep dashing him over the road. All in all though it was a very good stay, a good place to explore the lakes and surrounding area and I would stay there again.

- Louise, August 2021
Lissa July 2021

“Really cosy cottage, lovely furnishings and everything you could need in terms of kitchen equipment, we did need to move things around a bit as no room for food in cupboards as they were all full of stuff , but not a problem.”

The off road parking was an issue on a couple of days as it’s very limited. There are lots of comments in the guest book about the smell of damp, think we were lucky as it was a dry sunny week so we did leave windows open , it’s an old cottage though . Although on the whole the cottage was clean , there were quite a few cobwebs & skirting boards which were dusty, paying almost £1100 for the week this was disappointing.

- Lissa, July 2021

Susanne July 2020

“A very well equipped cottage.”

Great situation in the pretty village of Cark but also within walking distance of Cartmel, with some nice bars and restaurants.

- Susanne, July 2020
Amy October 2019

“Had a lovely holiday in the Lakes.”

The cottage was up to a good standard and well furnished. Situated in a lovely village with two pubs that serves nice food. The Rose and Crown particularly recommended. The village is also not far from Cartmel and Flookburgh which are also worth seeing. The only downside was the parking however spaces are available. A small car will fit in front of the cottage. One thing which I would mention is that we felt rush on leaving as it wasn't very clear on my booking what time check out was. Suggestion: make a note of this from the booking site. Overall, a very pleasant stay.

- Amy, October 2019
Vincent July 2019

“Mulberry Cottage is well located in Cark, five minutes walk to the railway station, with frequent services to Lancaster and Ulverston.”

The house is comfortable, but there are a number of things that the website does not make you aware of: the house is overlooked at the back, so you keep the blinds permanently closed, or people can see in (this makes the interior darker, which it does not need); parking is difficult even with a small car, if the house next door had been occupied, there may have been some arguments! The photographs of the interior make the house seem bigger than it is. The shower is good and the beds comfortable. There is a small (overlooked) area to the side of the property for sitting out and/or drying clothes. I would recommend the property. Cark is a pleasant village and a good base for touring the area. There is a newsagent/general shop less than five minutes walk from the property and there are two pubs serving food; there is no longer a bakery in the village, however.

Quiet, spacious and well equipped. I would love to return one day.

Jane November 2018

“The cottage was beautifully presented, very comfortable (lovely beds) clean and well equipped.”

Little touches like logs and kindling for the woodburner and a clothes airer and room to dry wet walking gear were much appreciated. Kitchen was unbelievably well equipped, could easily lay on a dinner party!! We loved it and will definitely recommend and book again ourselves. Wish we had booked to stay longer, a real home from home. By the way, we loved the thought that had gone into the collection of mugs!!

- Jane, November 2018
Lisa October 2018

“As with all the cottages we have stayed in with Sykes, Mulberry Cottage is a real home-from-home.”

Extremely clean, comfortable and cosy. The cottage is well placed to visit many attractions and the little village of Cark is lovely. We really could not fault it and would not hesitate to recommend it to friends and family. Our boys (7 and 4) had such a wonderful time they didn't want to come home, one even saying that they prefer our holiday cottage to our real house!!

- Lisa, October 2018
Paul August 2018

“The cottage was very comfortable with great local amenities.”

- Paul, August 2018
Dinah August 2018

“Fabulous cottage, very comfortable and extremely well equipped, even welcoming tea and coffee!”

Has everything you can think of including wifi, digital tv and great heating thats eazy to control if necessary. Only down side is the parking outside the cottage. Road is on a bemd and there isnt a full parking space so car sticks out into the road on the bend. Otherwise excellent.

- Dinah, August 2018
Lavinia June 2018

“Such a lovely comfortable cottage, very well equipped with everything you would need for a great holiday.”

Train station 4 minutes away with trains to Carlisle and all the stops in between, and going south as far as Preston, we made great use of the trains to get out and about, very close to cartmel racecourse and all the lovely walks, 2 nice pubs in cark village serving good food. A lovely pie shop and a Londis. Thoroughly enjoyed our week there, and our doodle Ziggy had a whale of a time, will definitely return.

- Lavinia, June 2018
Alison June 2018

“Beautiful cottage & village, thoroughly enjoyed our stay & would definitely book again & we wished we'd booked longer!”

Great base for travelling around the Lakes & lovely walks just on the doorstep. A couple of points we would have liked to know though before going was the local shop closed at 8:00pm & the 2 local pubs finished serving food around 8:30pm so if you have a late arrival make sure you take some food with you as we had none. Also Holker Hall, which is within walking distance & well worth a look but note opening times as we were disappointed to find it closed on our last 2 days, Monday & Tuesday. Also, the garden was just a small yard that was ok for our needs but our dogs would have preferred a bit more space to run around in.

- Alison, June 2018
Sheila May 2018

David May 2018

“Fantastic cottage with everything you need.”

Close to all amenities, Cark and Cartmel are lovely villages. Ate at L'Enclume and highly recommend, only a 40 minute walk to Cartmel. Used the cottage as a base for a fishing weekend and it is perfectly situated. We got lucky with the exceptional bank holiday sunshine which topped the trip off. Would definitely come back.

- David, May 2018

Tracey February 2018

“The cottage was lovely and exceptionally well equipped in the kitchen.”

It was also very practica for dog ownerl with space in kitchen fir dig crate and an enclosed garden. The beds were incredibly comfortable too. Great central location with lively walks from the cottage and easy access to sea or lakes. The only point I would make is there was only one black bin - no recycling facilities.

- Tracey, February 2018
David November 2017

“Have stayed in Cark previously.”

A great location for touring the South Lakes. Fish and chips from Flounders in Flookborough, always a nice treat on arrival. Many other great places to eat too

Very clean and well equipped and in a lovely location. The artisan bakery (practically next door) "Fat Flour" is well worth a visit for delicious pastries and chocolate brownies.

- Caroline, March 2017
Bronwen February 2017

“Parking somewhat difficult.”

The cottage does not have Wi Fi and I would not book this cottage again for that reason. That said, it was very comfortable and cosy and we thoroughly enjoyed our break. We would certainly use Sykes cottages again

- Bronwen, February 2017
Jennifer November 2016

“Absolutely loved this cottage, it was so clean and comfortable.”

Slight problem with parking but this did not cause any major problems (to us, or the locals - tho it did to an "incomer" to the village - be warned, he will move your car wing mirror!!!

Richard October 2016

“Lovely cottage.”

felt right at home as soon as we walked in. TV cable could do with an update but apart from that was perfect

- Richard, October 2016
Amanda September 2016

“A small issue with the bins I spoke to the dustmen and each one said about a sticker missing as it is classed as trade waste, not a prob for us but in the summer it may be a different matter.”

Also a new in comer to the village has made it his Saturday morning task to moan about the allocated parking space out side the cottage, real jobs worth and caused us a little amusement watching him squeeze between the car and window of the cottage, so really just to wined him up I parked so close a slice of ham would of not fitted lol made my day to see his face on Sunday. The landlady of the pub said he hasn't been there long it's an outsider thing so hayho other wise loved the cottage the village, a wonderful holiday thankyou

- Amanda, September 2016
Maureen December 2015

“We came here for a romantic Christmas getaway and we weren't disappointed!”

It was a beautifully clean, well furnished, cosy, romantic cottage. The kitchen was very well equipped allowing us to produce a lovely 3 course Christmas dinner. The cottage was very warm, and the wood burner adds a lovely touch of ambiance.

“A beautiful little cottage which was very comfortable and cosy.”

It had everything required for a pleasant stay; the lovely kitchen had everything that you would want and the wonderful shower was just what's needed after a days walking. There are two dog friendly pubs with good food only minutes walk away and a good shop. The cottage is nicely situated for both the lakes and the coast and very handy for Cartmel races.
