    Delightful, friendly, well-equipped and pretty village.

    Delightful, friendly, well-equipped and pretty village. Some local walks were recommended by locals and were gorgeous. The shops are perfect, great selection of stock and utterly charming. The pubs are really good, the Royal Oak serves huge portions of well cooked and flavourful, homemade food with a friendly welcome. Easy drive to seriously beautiful spots of Keswick, Coniston and Windermere. Went to Cumbria zoo which is lovely. Not to mention the next level spectacular that is L’Enclume in the village. Highly recommend.

    Caramel is a beautiful, small village with many pubs and restaurants and a few shops to browse. It’s peaceful and a lovely place to stop for a coffee or alcoholic beverage. There is a great cheese deli where you can choose from lots of different cheeses made locally and even try before you buy with a glass of wine or locally made ale. The famous mitchelin star restaurant L’Enclume is amazing and of course there is the famous sticky toffee pudding shop.

    Cartmel is a quaint picturesque village.

    Cartmel is a quaint picturesque village. It is lovely to stroll around. Quaint little antique and book shops, lovely little square with inns around it, the church, sheep and lambs in the fields. Lovely! Our expectations were high when we saw it but... There is almost no parking in the village except for 1hr or 2hr slots. Not much use for staying guests. The nearest overnight car parking was at the race course. £10 overnight charge. The card payment was not working. Coins only!!! We and others were searching for £10 in coins so that we could leave in the morning! Cartmel is largely shut from Sunday to Wednesday (slight exaggeration but you get the drift). Eateries close early or are not open at all. Cartmel has its own brewery. The brewery eatery only does Thurs, Fri, Sat! Thanks goodness for the Pig and Whistle which is only a short walk from the centre. If you want good food, good drink all at reasonable prices then it is a life saver. There is also free parking nearby which you can use overnight. To be clear I have no affiliation to it but it did serve us well. We ate and drank there other than on our first night.

    Cartmel is a small village served by several pubs, cafes and restaurants. There is a reasonable car park that is just on the edge of the village adjacent to the racecourse, leaving a short walk to the shops and pubs. The place to stay on a visit to L’Enclume.

    Fantastic bed and breakfast in the epicentre of lovely Cartmel. Communication with Rachel prior to arrival was perfect. The hotel is beautiful, both the public areas and the room in which we stayed. The room, recently re-decorated, is as comfortable as it is beautiful. Modern bathroom, super comfrotable bed, tea kettle/espresso machine - who needs more? Breakfast was stellar, be it the full English or the continental. We'll be delighted to come back and we thank Rachel for making our weekend in Cartmel special!

    We booked to visit Cartmel primarily to go to the races. On arrival at the hotel and on first sight of our room, we were blown away by how gorgeous it was. Amazing views of the racecourse and the beautiful grounds of the hotel. The staff were all lovely and the breakfast was delicious. Would love to go back there one day!

    The village setting, and inn were lovely. The staff were friendly, helpful and professional. The food(tea) and drink served before the fireplace was excellent, including my introduction to sticky toffee pudding. Traditional English breakfast was a good start to our day.

    The hotel is right in the centre of Cartmel, everything is close by. If you want you can leave the car and walk from your door, there are lots of great walks in the area. The room was spotlessly clean and breakfast was excellent. The staff were all friendly and helpful.

    Everything was excellent from the moment we checked in til the minute we left. The owners were very friendly. The breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. A good selection of local ales in the bar. Great location, very peaceful but only a short walk into Cartmel.

    Staff - attentive, regularly checking service, but not over the top. Great views with beautiful sunset if you're lucky. Traditional restaurant menu (not classic pub food) chicken and steak meals we ordered were delicious, hot and plentiful. Good choice of hotel

    we’ve stayed here twice and it’s a lovely hotel just outside of cartmel. You can walk into town but be warned it’s a bit sketchy if you do so at night at there are no streetlights and it’s a long windy road. Rooms and big and comfortable beds too.
