We enjoyed a lovely family get together in this beautiful house. It was spotlessly clean and elegantly furnished. Cartmel is a very picturesque village and Priory House sits at the very heart of it.

Great house with plenty of history and great size. A classic period priory house very well decorated and great for either a small or large group as the house is very comfy and homely for what is a large house. The garden is great given its central location in Cartmel. The location of the house is perfect given access to the village and the pubs andRead more restaurants. Overall great house and would go back easily. Hide
