Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Cark-in-Cartmel
A holiday cottage in Cark-in-Cartmel is ideally located for exploring both the Lake District and the Cumbria coast. This peaceful village is surrounded by unspoiled countryside, a stone’s throw from Morecambe Bay. This traditional Lakeland community comprises two cosy pubs, a village shop, a post office, and rows of attractive stone houses. Once a prosperous mill village, Cark-in-Cartmel – or simply ‘Cark’ – is home to several impressive historical sites. One of them is Holker Hall, a magnificent building that houses a selection of wood carvings, furniture, and paintings. The hall is set in extensive gardens, frequented by deer, and opposite the award-winning Lakeland Motor Museum. If you fancy a bite to eat or a pint of local ale before a roaring fire before returning to your holiday cottage in Cark-in-Cartmel, try the Rose in Crown or the Engine Inn – both cosy pubs in the village centre.
