Property code: 89364

This charming home is set in the popular Lakeland village of Cartmel in the south of the picturesque Lake District. Cartmel itself is a hub for foodies, but there is so much more to experience in this wonderful location, including a Michelin-star restaurant, local boutique shops, and an amazing day out at the racecourse. If that isn’t enough, the amazing Lake Windemere is a short 8-mile drive away. Explore the many well-known towns and villages on its shores either by car, or why not take the lake cruise from Lakeside and head up to Bowness, Windermere, or Ambleside? Alternatively, hire your own lake transport and head out to explore the wonderful scenery on offer.

As you enter through the front door, you will find a home away from home at this rustic property which retains a lot of its classic features including exposed beams and walls. A cosy lounge awaits you with comfortable sofas surrounding a wood burner and TV – perfect for a night spent watching a movie. At the rear of the room, designed to a high standard, is a well equipped kitchen which has everything you need to cook a perfect meal at the end of a long day.  The area also has a handy breakfast bar with two stools. On the first floor is the beautiful double bedroom which offers views over the lovely priory and village as well as a wonderful shower room.

A really lovely snug cottage which was just perfect for the two of us, and in a wonderful location too. A generous welcome pack in the kitchen was much appreciated. Worth noting that the stairs are quite tricky so might be a problem if mobility is restricted.

We had a great stay in The Snug. It was cosy, clean, well-equipped and the patio was great for a drink in the afternoon/evening sun. The communication with the owner went smoothly. If we'e ever in the neighbourhood again, we would stay here again.

We loved our week at The Snug. A cosy spot to relax after lots of walks in the area, great shower and kitchen.

We spent 3 nights in this wonderful cosy cottage. It was fabulous! Very comfortable, spotlessly clean with everything we needed. Ideally positioned within a few minutes walk into the village. Treat yourself to an amazing breakfast barm from the deli across the road. Delicious! Thoroughly recommend staying here, it was fantastic!

The cottage itself, the location and the thought put into the decor was lovely. We did enjoy our stay. It was unfortunately the lack of cleanliness in the kitchen and bathroom that spoilt it. We did think of taking photos but decided not to focus on the negatives.
