Carree Cottage (sleeps up to 6)

NEWLY REFURBISHED & REDECORATED

Carree Cottage is a luxury cottage that is full of charm and character and is furnished and equipped to a very high standard.

The cottage is beautifully presented with every convenience and lots of thoughtful extras and has just been redecorated.

Carree Cottage is located in a very peaceful setting in the South Lakeland village of Cark-in-Cartmel and is situated away from any roads yet only a minutes walk to the centre of the village and the 2 village pubs-both of which serve good food.

Converted from a 19th Century barn by a local craftsman, Carree Cottage has thick stone walls, a large, inglenook fireplace, with many original features, oak beams and is lavishly furnished using a mixture of contemporary and antique furniture. The cottage has every modern convenience you would expect and need in a luxury Lakeland cottage and lots of ‘thoughtful extras’ too.

The lounge has a large bay window which lets the sunlight flood in, 3 seater settee, 2 matching arm chairs, multi channel (Freeview) LCD TV, DVD, CD player, radio and some good old fashioned board games and plenty of books too. The large inglenook fireplace is the focal point of the lounge. A lovely way to relax at the end of the day.

The fully equipped kitchen is kitted out to a very high standard with many German appliances and has a new built-in double oven, halogen/ceramic hob, fridge/freezer, automatic washing machine, Bosch dishwasher, tumble drier, microwave and everything you’d expect to have in a luxury cottage plus maybe a bit more too. Mains gas central heating is at your control for whenever you want to use it and there is a combi-boiler for instant hot water. Heating, gas, and electric are all included in the price.

The dining area has a large antique pine table with 6 chairs, crockery, glasses and cutlery for 6 people too.

The 3 bedrooms sleep 6 people comfortably. The main double bedroom is very elegantly and luxuriously furnished with a new cast iron bed, a new dressing table with plenty of drawer space, new bedside table with more drawers, stool, built in cottage style wardrobe, a deep window seat and more oak beams. The twin bedded room overlooking the garden and fields also has a new dressing table with plenty of drawer space, new bedside table with more drawers, stool, and again a built in wardrobe. The 3rd bedroom which also overlooks the garden has 2 single beds arranged as bunk beds, a new large chest of drawers, a stair gate, full size travel cot and another built in wardrobe too. The cottage also has a high chair, provided free of charge. Good quality, bed linen and towels are provided free of charge.

The modern bathroom has a full sized bath, a powerful built-in electric shower, wash basin & toilet.

Outside, to the rear, the cottage has its own lovely, totally enclosed, private cottage style garden overlooking open fields with a variety of plants, shrubs and wild flowers, a patio area, garden table & chairs, and barbecue. The cottage also has its own garage for the sole use of guests.

The cottage is provided with plenty of local information, books, folders and leaflets containing lots of walks and our own recommendations of some of our personal favourite walks and places to visit.

We also have another separate cottage next door that also sleeps 6 people. This is ideal for groups of up to 12 who want to rent both cottages simultaneously. For details of the cottage next door, please click here to see more about ‘Grange End Cottage’.

Dog lovers are welcome to bring along their dog(s) with them by prior arrangement and for a small charge. Non pet owners can rest assured that we spend this extra money on additional cleaning so that non pet owners would have no idea a dog has stayed at the cottage.

This is a great area for dog owners with walks from the doorstep and there are plenty of fields, footpaths, woods and beaches all open to the public to ensure that your dog can run around off the lead.
