“Beautiful cottage, perfect location”
We have just returned from a week in Cartmel, staying at Weavers Cottage.
What a delightful cottage this is, you feel at home as soon as you enter the beautiful dining kitchen which is full of high end appliances and leads to the spacious conservatory dining area and sunny outside seating area.
The cottage was immaculately clean and the beds lovely and comfortable.
It is in a ideal location, being only a few minutes walk from the racecourse and the centre of Cartmel with its many pubs and cafes.
There are many lovely walks that can be done from the cottage but if you prefer to travel further afield Cartmel is also a perfect location for exploring the beautiful Lake District.
We would not hesitate to return – Gill Ellison

“Excellent!”
We have just spent the last seven days in this delightful cottage.
From the moment we arrived all six of us fell in love with it and by the end of the stay I was imagining myself living there on a permanent basis.
The open plan kitchen was a dream and all the appliances and crockery were of a high standard.
There was no fighting for the best bedroom as each one was as beautiful as the next.
The location was great as there were so many places we found to explore, on foot and by car.
We had been advised that the mobile phone coverage was poor but Vodafone coverage in the cottage was strong and no complaints at all from anyone on the wifi which worked 100% of the time.
We cannot recommend this cottage highly enough and I must say dealing with Simon has been an absolute pleasure. His one aim was ensure we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Charcoal Cottage, thank you Simon – Jan Muir, Hampshire
