Being in the heart of an exquisite medieval village, quaint streets, stream-side walks and the 12th Century Priory are a few steps away. Immerse yourself in village life with four traditional inns, Michelin-starred restaurants, sticky-toffee puds and a race track. And with lake, fell and coastal walks handy, this gorgeous hide-away has the lot. From the large entrance hall - great for storing coats and muddy boots (and for flopping down after your walk) - head upstairs to the spectacular open-plan space; lounge, kitchen and dining areas furnished to designer spec. The uber-stylish kitchen is equipped with every appliance; high ceilings and roof-lights create a bright and airy ambience. When you’re done and it's time for bed, just retreat through the dressing room to your luxurious boudoir with super king-size bed. The spacious en-suite bathroom has a freestanding bath and large corner shower. A few steps across the courtyard, you'll find the former village "lock up"- a bijou, quirky annexe with a fascinating history. This is where the second bed-space is ingeniously styled into the former village jail, listed as a building of special architectural and historical interest. The Jail bedroom has its own wet-room, wardrobe space, kettle and mini fridge. But beware it’s a very compact space! Outside, you’ll want to unwind in the courtyard area. With tables, chairs and patio heater, it's a great space for a glass of wine before (and after) exploring the range of eateries within walking distance. For extra convenience, there’s a Utility Room equipped with full laundry facilities. Cartmel is often held to be the quaintest of all Lakeland villages with its cobbled pavements, medieval arch, heritage buildings, delightful stream-side walks and 12th-century Priory; a captivating destination that entices visitors with its charm and natural beauty. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere and indulge in the array of charming shops, four traditional pubs and Simon Rogan's renowned Michelin starred restaurants; a treat for food enthusiasts. There’s a wine snug, microbrewery and cheese shop all gathered around a lovely courtyard space often featuring live music and pizzas on summer weekends. And with the famous national hunt racecourse just steps away, you can soak up the excitement of nine race days a year and enjoy fun-filled days out. It's difficult to tear yourself away from this romantic property with its hot tub and charming village ambience, but there are many other attractions nearby: Levens Hall, Sizergh Castle and Holker Hall -each with a spectacular garden.
