The Loft is in the heart of Cartmel, within walking distance of the famous square, shops, and friendly pubs like the 450-year old Cavendish Arms. The spacious holiday apartment is on the top floor of an elegant townhouse and sleeps up to four people in two bedrooms with guests also having exclusive use of a private terrace garden. The Loft is ideal for couples, friends or family who want a stylish and comfortable self-catering place to stay that is convenient for the best Lake District attractions.
Cartmel may be small in size, but the village is big on charm and well and truly on any foodies destination wish list. Not only does it have a beautiful medieval priory with lovely stained glass windows, but it is also home to L'Enclume restaurant with its two Michelin stars, Rogans Bistro (also with a Michelin star!) and Britain's tiniest National Hunt Racecourse (which you can see from the living room window) which is home to a handful of hugely popular race festivals and weekend meets each summer. There is a heritage centre in the former prior gatehouse, and a fantastic village shop renowned for, and home to, the famous Cartmel sticky toffee pudding. Footpaths, cycle routes and bridleways lead from the village to the fells and towards the Lake District National Park making it very easy to immerse yourself in this stunning landscape.
Just 15 minutes from The Loft is Lake Windermere, opening up a wealth of fantastic sights and experiences from sailing the waters on a ferry or a Victorian steamboat, to fishing and kayaking. At its deepest, the water in Windermere is 220 feet deep, and it is the most significant natural lake in England. Equally as spectacular as Lake Windermere are the hills and mountains reflected in its surface. You can easily walk for miles without seeing another soul, or throw yourself into your Lake District holiday by visiting popular attractions such as Grizedale Forest, Home Farm where Beatrix Potter created some of her most beloved animal characters, and Holker Hall's magnificent house and gardens (within walking distance of The Loft).
As if this was not enough, the coast is only three miles from Cartmel at Grange-over-Sands, where Morecambe Bay offers even more ways to enjoy yourself on the water. There is a choice of golf courses, stables and bicycle hire places meaning that when you stay at The Loft, whatever your idea of the perfect day looks like, you can turn it into a beautiful reality.
