  Cartmel flat is fabulous, we had a lovely long weekend .

  Just my husband and I stayed in the flat which was a perfect break. It was very inviting and made special with the welcome tray and lovely fresh flowers in the lounge and kitchen. The flat is contemporary and beautifully styled. Every room was in excellent condition- kitchen, lounge, shower room and bedroom. The bed was super comfy with quality pillows and duvet and sleep / pillow spray ( amazing) The settee most comfy. Charming Cartmel views from every window. Carol & Rob had thought of everything from a brolly, picnic blanket, hay fever tablets, a sewing kit and so much more - tremendously stocked house:) We would love to return for another special weekend in such beautiful surroundings in the flat and in the village. Thank you so much. Ps. I feel I may not have found a rubber non slip shower mat I require as I have a mobility issues. I had no problems with the stairs which were easy to manage with a good banister rail and larger stair steps; don’t be put off if you have slight difficulties with stairs as there are just a handful and the bannister supports you.

  This was a lovely comfortable and spacious apartment.

  The house had character. Modern interior inkeeping with its historical exterior. Comfortable bed and well equipt kitchen. The owners parents were on-hand to help, when I could not find the instructions to operate the washing machine. (Someone had put the instruction leaflet in a cupboard rather than back in the folder.) They were very helpful and friendly. The location is lovely for walking. It is also close to the railway station. We had a good stay. It was not really a holiday as we had our bathroom refurbished into a wet room and needed to move out for a few days. We could not move too far from home as my husband had a medical appointment at Furness General. We did make a very good break out of our stay. Only downside was the lack of Wi Fi. Fortunately I had enough data on my phone, but my husband did not have much. We should have checked. I just assume everywhere has Wi Fi these days. Other than that the place was marvelous.

  If you are someone who relies on internet or phone, this is probably not the place for you as there is no WiFi (this is stated in the property listing) and the phone signal can be a bit patchy.

  If, however, you want some peace and quiet and to get away from it all, it's just the place! Large airy rooms, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Nice to sit on the bench in the garden and listen to the birds without the background soundtrack of traffic. Happy to spot a heron in the small stream at the bottom of the garden. Lovely walks nearby with Holker Hall just 10/15 minute walk away and definitely worth a visit. 10 minutes to the railway station if you want to venture further afield, leaving the car behind. A couple of minor points. Some of the local attraction leaflets were very old! We put some new ones in. There is a washing machine if needed, but nowhere to hang to dry. Don't like using a dryer unless absolutely necessary. Maybe a small airer could be provided. All in all we had a great stay and would definitely recommend and revisit.

  A very comfortable, clean and stylish apartment in a beautiful house.

  The living room and kitchen are huge and very well equipped and though the bedroom is smaller it's perfectly adequate with a comfortable bed. The garden is lovely with a stream running through and to have parking is a definite bonus in a very small village. The village is very quiet, which is a treat after a day visiting some fairly busy places. It was our first visit to the Lake District and we loved the area and packed a lot in to our week, it is about 15 to 20 miles from the popular lakes and some can get very crowded with parking a problem. We felt that the lack of WiFi was a problem, especially when planning walks and trips. Please Sykes could you give the correct information about where to find the key safe! Apparently you have been told several times. Gave us ten minutes of panic before we found the correct place.

  The apartment was superb and fully equipped with just about everything you need.

  I guess the only thing missing was some liquid hand soap in the bathroom as that isnt something most people would pack. We had a lovely few days in Cark but beware if you want to eat out as the restaurants seem to do food when they feel like it. We were booked in the Rose and Crown for a meal and when we turned up they said they had been trying to contact us all day as they had no chef. They hadn't called me once. The board outside the Engine pub said they do food every day so we called in there one night but they weren't doing food that day. Even the Londis shop sign said it was open until 8pm and when we went there as a last resort at 7pm to get a frozen pizza or something it was closed. So the cottage was superb but make sure you take supplies with you
