About this property
A cosy mid-terrace cottage located in the quaint village of Cark in Cartmel, benefiting from a secluded garden and from being just two miles from the priory village of Cartmel and eight miles from Lake Windermere. At this Cark in Cartmel cottage there is a king-size double bedroom and a twin room. This welcoming cottage has a light and airy open plan living area with patio doors leading out to the pretty garden. The small village of Cark in Cartmel has a general store and a pub, both just a short walk from the cottage. There are numerous walks from the village, including a lovely river path to Holker Hall and Gardens, which also has a lovely tea room serving excellent breakfasts and lunches. The ancient priory village of Cartmel is nearby and has a host of excellent restaurants and pubs, plus specialist shops including the Cartmel Village Shop, home of the sticky toffee pudding. Within 45 minutes' drive are the pretty Lakeland villages of Coniston, Hawkshead and Grasmere and Lakeside, the tip of Lake Windermere, is just eight miles away and is home to the Aquarium of the Lakes and the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway. A warm and welcoming Cark in Cartmel cottage, to be enjoyed at any time of the year.
The small village of Cark in Cartmel lies just a couple of miles from its more famous neighbour, Cartmel, in lovely Lakeland countryside. Cark is a stop on the Furness railway, and visitors to the village will enjoy a stroll to the local beach, or a quiet pint in one of the two friendly pubs. Holker Hall house and deer park are just a short walk from Cark. Cartmel is renowned for its racecourse, and the town is well served with a selection of shops, traditional pubs and a Michelin starred restaurant. There is so much to enjoy in the area, from country walks to boat trips on Windermere or a trip to the seaside resort of Grange over Sands. A great Lakeland base for your holiday.

The overall cleanliness and comfort lets the cottage down so too does the decor. Weâve stayed at the cottage many years ago (at least 10) and other than the sofas - nothing much has changed. The shower needs updating (more power) and the mattress in the main bedroom needs to be firmer - (we both ended up with bad backs in the morning). Sorry to sound so down but some upgrading is definitely required. A hoover would be useful too.
