The property
Pembroke is an inviting, three-bedroom bungalow situated a short walk into the market square of Cartmel, Cumbria.
This contemporary property offers a wonderful setting, nestled near the Lake District National Park, whilst a short distance from a hub of attractions, shops, and eateries, making it a wonderful base for couples and small groups.
Benefit from a private driveway upon your arrival, where you can unload your belongings with ease, before stepping indoors, storing your boots and coats in the utility room adjacent to the hallway.
Make your way to the open-plan living space, a hub for socialising, complete with a fully-equipped kitchen with a charming AGA, a dedicated dining area, and a plush corner sofa, resting in front of the woodburning stove.
If the weather allows, make the most of the enclosed garden and dine alfresco over a bottle of wine, with lovely rural views to the rear of the home.
When sleep calls, select between a stylish king-size with a sleek en-suite bathroom, a further king-size bedroom and a beautiful single bedroom serviced by a contemporary shower room.
The village of Cartmel is a wonderful place to explore; take a stroll through the cobbled streets, visit the quaint independent shops, sample the local ale in the pubs, or some of the delicious food at L'Enclume, the three-Michelin-starred restaurant, and Rogan and Co, offering seasonal, British fare; a haven for foodies. Cartmel Racecourse and Cartmel Priory are also worth a visit, before sampling the local delicacy of the sticky toffee pudding!
Head just a few miles down the road to the Victorian seaside town of Grange-over-Sands; here you can take a leisurely walk along the promenade, explore the stunning Lakeland scenery, and visit the many art galleries, tearooms, and clothing boutiques.
Take a little more of a drive and you’ll arrive in Bowness on Windermere, the most popular resort on Lake Windermere, where you can enjoy a picnic along the shores of the lake, admire the spectacular views of the Lakeland Fells, or take a cruise on Lake Windermere itself. With so much to see and do in the area, book a stay at Pembroke.
