Cottage in Cumbria

Holiday Rental Description

The lovely village of Cartmel lies just seven miles from the southern reach of Lake Windermere, and features plenty of fantastic restaurants, a Norman priory and the smallest National Hunt racecourse in the country. The village lies on the Cartmel Peninsula, a body of land tumbling out into the Morecambe Bay. Grange Over Sands, over the hill from Cartmel, has delightful local shops and a mile long promenade. Hampsfell and Eggerslack woods make for a light days walking with some stunning views. The lanes are perfect for cycling and the coastline offers some lovely spots, such as Humphrey Head, a real pirate cove with a limestone cliff jutting out into the bay. On entering this delightful cottage you will find yourself in the central hall, which has been furnished as a small relaxing snug area which leads out to the smaller of the two patio areas. Back inside, the snug leads into the comfy and bright lounge/diner, which is tastefully furnished, with a cosy feel with the electric fire and is the perfect space to relax and gather together. Enjoy family time, or simply curl up with a good book or watch a movie on the Smart TV. To one side is the cosy dining area and, at the far end of the room French doors open out to a small walled and paved garden.
