Great stay , very happy with cottage (would suggest a bath/shower mat be provided to prevent any slips when taking shower)
Ms Lawrie July 2018

“Cartmel Cottage is fantastic and very well furnished and equipped.”

This was our second visit and we hope to return.
Mrs Storer June 2018

“Lovely comfy cottage.”

Only issue was that there wasn't anywhere to put any washing. A clothes airer would be useful
Mrs Barlow June 2018

Mrs Baker May 2018

The cottage was lovely for us it needed a bath Matt and a grab rail in her bathroom The only big downside with a dog is the lack of no back or front privacy , this was very inconvenient with no fencing to keep our dog contained or have private drink out back All in all the cottage was lovely in an ideal location But due to the dog issues we could not book again
Mr Jewitt March 2018

“Lovely Cottage with Woodburner & Central Heating.”

Complete Kitchen: Hob/oven, microwave, dishwasher, kettle and toaster. Great base for exploring Lake District, choice of pubs both serving food nearby. I would definitely recommend this cottage.
Mrs Taggart March 2018

“The location of the cottage was great for us.”

Lots of walks on the doorstep, a shop and bakery in the village and good nearby pubs. The cottage was small but well-equipped and cosy despite the sub-zero temperatures outside. There is no enclosed garden so could be difficult for some dog owners but we managed no problem. The owners and Sykes helped us with a last minute request and no bother. Would be happy to stay here again.
Mrs Mccartney February 2018

“We stayed in Cartmel Cottage from 23rd February for one week, the cottage is lovely, warm, cosy and I loved the stream right outside of the house.”

The owners were very accommodating and helpful when I rang. The cottage is in a great position for sightseeing there is also a small shop, bakers and two pubs that serve food all on the doorstep. We loved this cottage, parking was not a problem, unfortunately we had to return two days early because of the “beast from the east” however this will not put us off and we will be back.
Mrs Bruce February 2018

“Cartmel Cottage was delightful, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.”
Mr Quinn February 2018

“Really enjoyed the relaxation and the peace needed a break to recharge my batteries so to speak and this was the ideal place.”

Only 1 drawback was the amount of driving I had to do to go to anywhere of interest.But to be fair there was a train station with a very good service but I am not a train person.
Mrs Brierley February 2018

“The cottage - couldn’t fault any of the facilties, location etc, it was all lovely.”

Our only issue was that with the property being listed as pet friendly, it would have been useful to know that none of the outside space was enclosed. It’s clear that the cottage fronts on to the river and that pets should be supervised however the back patio is also open for your dog to roam in to next doors garden and also on to the road.
Mrs Millington November 2017

“Great little holiday cottage good base for exploring the Lakes.”

Excellent pub one minute walk from the door servicing good food. Had a lovely would definitely recommend.
