  • Fine dining and more right on your doorstep with an abundance of walks
Property code: OC-83546

You’re sure to feel like the top dog when staying here in Cartmel, a foodie paradise with an abundance of Lake District walking routes available close by. Perfectly suited to a group of four and two bounding canine companions, the property is a semi-detached abode on a quiet country road, complete with countryside views that disappear into the horizon, and two spaces to relax outdoors whilst letting children and pets play to their heart’s content. Experience Cartmel’s quality fare in local pubs and restaurants before heading home to relax with the pups curled up by your side.

Man, and dog alike will feel instantly at home when arriving here, collapsing onto cushy sofas, and curling up by the warm embrace of the wood burners. Prepped for even the coldest of Cumbrian months, both the lounge and dining room feature wood burners and offer a great spot for your dogs to park their favourite beds. Should you wish to cook at home, you’ll find a thoroughly equipped kitchen and dining table to sit down together, along with the charcoal BBQ and generous seating options on the rear patio. Head back inside to cosy up in the lounge, switching on the Smart TV whilst sleeping dogs lie beside you, before heading up to bed yourself.

Lead the way to adventure along Cumbria’s coast and countryside, discovering the dramatic seascape at Grange-over-Sands just 2 miles away and the brink of the Lake District National Park less than 1 mile. From here, you’ll find yourself just 6 miles from the famous Lake Windermere and 12 miles from Coniston Water, not to mention the many Lakeland fells that can be found within 30 miles from home. Pack up tennis balls and plenty of doggy treats for a day hiking mountains before dropping into Windermere (13.5 miles) to find a pet-friendly local pub.
