Breakfast was first class with all options available. Hotel is at the centre of the village in the square which has a certain old world charm. A great location to visit all the well known sites of the lake district

I would have liked to have food at the hotel but at this time of year staff and visitors are in short supply. The other inns were suffering the same problem with the exception of the Cavendish arms which provided excellent food.

A warm welcome and a comfortable, spotlessly clean room with comfortable beds. The breakfast was fabulous, cooked to order and nothing was too much trouble for the staff . There was a better choice than in the enormous chain hotel we had stayed in the night before. The location was perfect, central village position overlooking the delightful village square . We would definitely stay again.

We liked everything!

Room beautiful, clean, bathroom and shower lovely 🥰 Staff so so friendly and very helpful and informative about the local area.

Room was far too warm but we were able to open both bathroom windows and bathroom door to let air through, also a free standing fan was supplied in room. We were also able to turn the heat down on the radiator. This did not effect our stay at all 😀

We had a nice stay in this lovely hotel right in the heart of Cartmel, it’s an excellent location with the racecourse parking a 3 minute walk away. Spacious rooms with nice bathrooms, the owners and all the staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were top quality, overall an excellent stay and would recommend.

Great location in centre of Cartmel. Stayed just for 1 night in room 2 overlooking the village square. My friend and I were having lunch at L'Enclume just round the corner and were allowed to check in early at noon to change and freshen up after a long journey. Room was a large double, converted to a twin, very clean and comfortable. Good breakfast menu - I had eggs Benedict which were perfectly cooked. No parking on site - most of the village is double yellows, but car parking is available on the racecourse just a couple of minutes walk. The staff were welcoming and helpful and I'd definitely stay again.

The staff were very pleasant and nothing was too much trouble for them. The room was lovely and with some nice touches, bottled water and toiletries and a super shower. Breakfast was excellent with great quality of food. We went to l'eclume so only ate breakfast but we will return to try their Sunday lunch.

Location and staff. It’s a small property, with 7 rooms and this allowed the staff time to chat to guests.

Room 7 .We were based on the top floor with low level ceilings in bedroom and bathroom and although there was writing saying “ mind your head “, we felt it wasn’t obvious enough and someone could hurt themselves!

Perfectly located in the centre of the village with restaurants, bars and pubs all within easy reach. Staff and locals very friendly. You don’t need a car but if you want to explore the area, it might be a good idea. We relied on taxis which was a bit expensive.

Location is excellent. The bedroom was spacious and the bathroom was very nice. The bedroom furniture was very nice and characterful. Breakfast was good.

Parking is not difficult but it is quite a distance to the hotel with heavy bags. Best to drop off luggage whilst passing. I would have liked some fresh fruit with breakfast.

(Written by Mike's wife) The hotel was right in the middle of Cartmel within walking distance to everything, although Cartmel is a small village! The staff were lovely and very helpful. The breakfast was made to order and was very good, you certainly wouldn't be hungry after it. We had lovely weather and there were tables outside the hotel as well as a beer garden so you could enjoy the sunshine. The room was really nice, felt quite spacious apart from the roof sloping down (see below). It was well equipped with tea making facilities, hairdryer etc., and mirrors beside electrical sockets which is essential for drying your hair, I have always been surprised at how many hotels don't have mirrors beside electrical sockets.

(Written by Mike's wife) We had a room at the top of the hotel and it felt like we were in the eaves of the building as the roof sloped down in the bedroom and the bathroom. I am only 5' 5" and I hit my head quite a few times, despite the warning on the ceiling.
