“Fabulous cottage”
Lovely cottage, has everything you need. We stayed here with our dogs in June, last minute getaway, loved it!
Kitchen has everything you need, lovely garden, beds are really comfortable, one of the nicest cottages we’ve stayed in.
Loved the little bakery (300 yards away). We went everyday, pizza and breads gorgeous, nice pub on the corner, ideal little village.
Spent our days out sight seeing, didn’t make it to the beach. Would definitely stay again.
Simon was great to deal with. Thank you! 🙂 – Lisa

“Location, location & a fab cottage !”
Fab location and a beautiful cottage to stay in = perfect holiday.
We ate out in Cartmel nearly everyday and were never disappointed – also breakfast rolls from Wellbread most days set us up for our days out exploring the beautiful countryside and must mention Unsworth’s Yard for beer in the afternoon sun in their lovely courtyard – we also had the added bonus of bluebells in the racecourse woods and on our walk over the top to Grange and we were very lucky to have lots of sunshine 🙂 – Lucy

5 Star Review on ‘mycottageholiday.co.uk’
We stayed here for 3 nights to celebrate my Dad’s 60th birthday and it was just the perfect spot.
A lovely homely feel about the cottage and everything you could possibly need was catered for.
Great location, especially as we visited L’Enclume in nearby Cartmel as part of our stay.
Fantastic dog walks, and so much information provided by the owners that you wouldn’t even need to have done any research beforehand.
We found nearby Humphrey Head when out exploring, where at low tide the dogs ran around for ages enjoying a dip in the water.
We didn’t really want to leave so I’m sure we’ll find a reason to return – Claire Waidson, Chelmsford, Essex
