Many of our guests are quite happy just to stay in Cartmel, and enjoy its riches. There’s no doubt though that our part of the Lake District opens up a whole range of wonderful choices for our guests, whether you are travelling alone, with a partner, or the whole family. The home of sticky toffee pudding including its own village shop, our 12th century priory, the famous racecourse and of course the no 1 rated restaurant in the whole country; the Michelin starred L’Enclume. Unsworth Yard with its own wine shop/bar, bakery, cheese shop and micro brewery is also well worth a visit.
With countless pubs and gift shops, Cartmel’s medieval village is a gorgeous picture postcard, a ‘thimble full of diamonds’ to wander round.
