About this property
A splendid semi-detached house overlooking the river, on the edge of the pretty village of Cark in Cartmel, two miles from Cartmel itself. Riverside View is a well-presented Cartmel holiday home, offering well-equipped first-class accommodation throughout. There are three lovely bedrooms, one with en-suite facilities, a delightful kitchen, a warm and cosy snug and a comfy sitting room. With lovely views of the surrounding countryside and the river running alongside this Cartmel holiday home, this is a very welcoming cottage. Just a short stroll from the village centre, with its lovely old country pubs and pretty walks to the coast, this Cartmel holiday home is also close to Cartmel, which offers a 12th century church, first-rate pubs and Michelin Star awarded L'Enclume restaurant. With the Lake District National Park, Lakeland Motor Museum and pleasant seaside resort of Grange-over-Sands all within easy reach, this is a superb Cartmel holiday home for a fabulous holiday.
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.

It was warm and cosy and we walked in after an 8 hour drive to find it decorated for Christmas with a tree, mince pies, wine and milk in the fridge. It was much bigger than we thought and very well equipped, ideal for 6 of us with plenty of space for entertaining our family who live locally. The photos don't do it justice, we loved the comfort and many touches to make it homely. The utility room was a godsend with muddy dogs and walking boots and the extra snug a bonus. We walked up to Flookborough square for carols with a brass band on Christmas morning, came back to Riverside Cottage for lunch and it was just about perfect. Highly recommended, I would definitely go back.

Lovely views to farmland and fells at rear. Handy for village amenities.

It was so relaxing looking out across the fields, from the kitchen window, with the river running below and the birds occasionally hopping onto the window sill. Sunday lunch at The Pheasant in Flookburgh was wonderful. Every room has so much space and despite the weather being bad all week we still had a lovely stay in a very comfortable holiday home.
