“Comfortable Cartmel Cottage is in a beautiful position, being part of a well-kept pretty terrace beside a stream.”

It is close to the village store and The Engine, which serves food.I had been concerned that holidaymakers might have been met with some hostility with regard to the spread of Covid 19, but the local people were very friendly. We travelled to Cark by train and were pleased to find Holker Hall, Cartmel Priory and the Lakeland Model Village at Flookborough were within walking distance for the reasonably fit. The railway provides good links with the towns and villages of the Cumbrian coast if you wish to explore further afield. This is a great setting for a quiet and peaceful holiday.

“Cottage quiet and peaceful in a lovely setting with friendly neighbours.”

Everything that you could reasonably want. Felt very comfortable. I get COVID-19 situation but there was a very limited supply of toilet roll in and dishwasher tablets so we had to buy some. I don’t want to be picky but there was a lot of post, some of which seemed to be official, dating back to March. If the owner can’t get there, the facilities company should communicate with them. The bath panel came off during our stay and the facilities company sorted it the same day so well done.

“Lovely retreat”

After a very uncertain few months for everyone we booked after restrictions were lifted to try and relax and de stress and of course a different view ! What a place ..! Quiet, charming and historical too ! Waking up every morning to the sound of the babbling river ..not another sound.. complete bliss. Cottage tastefully decorated and kitted out with all mod cons. Comfy but sturdy lounge furniture and plenty of space for couples. Everyone we spoke to in the vicinity were extremely helpful, telling us the best flat walks etc.. even the old chap next door would pop his head out now and again and tell us of the history of the cottages and villiage.! Excellent communication from the cottage owner with a request that any problems to just call immediately.. we found none. A few minutes walk into the villiage and there is the train station which we caught into Grange over sands for a couple of hours. There is a small Londis in cark. A couple of express types in Grange but make sure you take the majority of foodstuffs with you ( or get it delivered ) as the nearest big supermarkets are in ulverston 20 mins drive away. other than that we had the most relaxing time. Thankyou Cartmel Cottage

“Absolutely gorgeous little cottage in a fantastic location for peace and tranquility, lovely and clean.”

It felt like a home from home and I wish we could have stayed a little longer, only bad thing I can say is that I couldn’t manage to get the fire lit but it was still lovely and warm. Would definitely recommend! Thankyou
