  •  Private shingled courtyard garden to the rear of the property for relaxing and alfresco dining

  • Ideal location for exploring both the Lakes and the coast, with the seaside resort of Grange-over-Sands lying within a ten-minute drive
Property code: LCC47

Offering stylish accommodation for four people, this attractive cottage is located in the popular village of Cartmel, a haven for foodies. It’s a super base for those looking to explore the beautiful fells and lakes of the national park, while it also enjoys easy access to the coast. Two dogs are welcome to join you, meaning the whole family can take off on a break together.

Contemporary touches throughout this charming property make it a comfortable and homely choice for your break. The modern kitchen will be a welcome space for those guests who enjoy cooking, with all you need to rustle up a snack or family meal. The cottage benefits from two reception rooms, giving everyone plenty of space to relax and unwind. The welcoming lounge/diner is a lovely space for family meals, with a sofa and flame effect gas fire adding to its cosiness, while the main lounge also has a similar fire and snuggly sofas to curl up on. French doors lead from here into the courtyard garden. Upstairs, you’ll discover two tasteful en-suite bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, which create a restful environment for a good night’s sleep. Sit back and enjoy a drink in the shingled courtyard in the evening, while the children and dogs explore.

If food is your thing then look no further than Cartmel, famous for the sticky toffee pudding that began here. For water sports, hikes and boat trips, Lake Windermere (6.5 miles) has something for everyone to enjoy, while the National Trust’s Fell Foot country park (6 miles) is great for a paddle. For some fresh coastal air, pack a picnic and head to Grange-over-Sands, 2 miles away.

We enjoyed a very wet week in Cartmel but the cottage was so well equipped and beautifully presented the weather didnt matter as we had a great base to come back to and dry off!

Beautifully situated, only used the car twice all holiday as so much to do in & around Cartmel. Great bacon baps for breakfast from the adjacent Food Shed, not impressed by the pub opposite. Great pubs/wine bars/Pizza in the village centre, choice more limited Monday to Wednesday as some places closed. Great walks from the cottages including the raRead morececourse & up the hill to the hospice monument. Cottage perhaps in need of a deep clean & new showers but wouldnt put me off staying again!

My friends and I found the house a perfect size for the 4 of us, exceptionally comfortable, especially the beds and the luxury of a bathroom attached to each room. The kitchen is very user friendly and well equipped. The house too is well lit, plenty of lamps to deliver a cosy feel on a dark winter evening. The central heating is very efficient tooRead more. The boot room entrance area is great too and of course the off road parking area. Hide

Great house! Lots of space, incredibly comfortable and brilliantly located. Even bigger bonus is the off road parking (gold dust in Cartmel). So much storage space and a well equipped kitchen. The two en suite bathrooms were a great bonus as was the utility conservatory!

Great cottage in an excellent location - hardly needed to move out of the village - enclosed yard was particularly useful for the dog to roam around - and of course the off road parking is a bonus. Dog walking around the racecourse area is great - cottage very well equipped - slight plumbing issue but very responsive owner
