Tucked away from the tourist hotspots and set within the peaceful Cumbrian village of Cark-in-Cartmel, this cosy cottage sleeps four and is the perfect base for keen adventurers and foodies alike. Explore the sweeping countryside surrounding the village and tuck into hearty pub lunches, or venture into the gastronomic centre of Cartmel to experience fine dining in one of the superb restaurants. On your return, pop a log on the fire and snuggle down with a glass of wine, watching a film with your loved ones by your side.

Inside, the property carries the vibe of a traditional cottage albeit with a pleasing contemporary twist, featuring bold splashes of colour, exposed beams and a beautiful stone floor in the lounge/diner. Elegant furniture provides comfortable spots to sink into after a busy day, whether you are drawn to the sumptuous sofas in the lounge area, or prefer to gather at the table for board games. A marvellous kitchen provides all the gadgets and workspace needed to cook up a storm, which can be enjoyed outside in the impressive enclosed courtyard. Consisting of sunny patio space, elevated decked balcony and a summerhouse, the outside space is a treat for stargazing. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms and an impressive bathroom complete the property.

Set off on bracing walks to Grange-over-Sands, 3.5 miles away, to sample artisan produce and bask in the views and timeless charm of the Victorian promenade. There are ornamental gardens and an array of independent shops to peruse, as well as access to a number of exhilarating cycle trails. Hop on a train and discover somewhere completely new, alighting at the pretty fishing port of Arnside, or venturing as far as Lancaster to soak up the culture and history.

We found it a bit dark, but it is a cottage and the time of year not conductive to long sunny days. They have really made the most of the outside space they have.

Cottage was first class and it was decorated to a high standard. The kitchen was equipped with everything you needed and the outside space with the summerhouse was a lovely addition. It's in a great peaceful location and within easy reach of the local shop, pub, garden centre, Holker Hall and the railway station. There are some lovely walks from thRead moree cottage. We would recommend the cottage and would definitely return in the future. Hide

Folds End is a lovely cottage with everything you need. Its in a quiet area minutes from a shop and pub and its location is perfect for exploring the countryside. The enclosed garden is perfect for the dog and a relaxing spot after a days outing. I would recommend this cottage.

Lovely cosy cottage. Great location to travel out to the best areas of the Lake District, but stay in a quiet rural location. We had great weather whilst at The Fold, so we had a truly wonderful time.

Beautiful cottage inside and out, perfect walks straight from the doorstep and a lovey little location as in walking distance of pubs, shop and takeaway. We hope to return again in the near future with our little dog and would not hesitate in recommending it to others. Thank you for a wonderful week.

We had a fantastic holiday at Folds End Cottage had everything we needed and more. Comfortable sofa and beds. Lovely shower. Well equipped kitchen. Parking can be an issue but we were able to get parked behind the pub. Best of both worlds as we used the log burner the first couple of days then the weather improved and it was great to sit outside anRead mored soak up the sun. Great location for touring the lakes. Pub within 50 yards of the front door. Highly recommended Hide
