We had a very relaxing holiday along with our two very active Springer Spaniels.

“As expected the cottage was very ...”

As expected the cottage was very small but that is ok for a single person or young couple. The spiral staircase made it difficult to get suitcases upstairs and would be a hazard for older folk or young children. Fridge and cooker need updating.

“Cosy mini-break”

My partner, golden retriever and I had a lovely couple of days in the Milkmaid's Parlour cottage. Although the accommodation was slightly dusty, the space had a lot of personality. The location is perfect for those who wish to explore the Lake District, as well as there being a few lovely walks accessible from the grounds. A welcoming and romantic stay, where dogs are very welcome.

“My partner and I had a wonderful ...”

My partner and I had a wonderful couple of days at Longlands in the Milkmaid Parlour cottage. The location is perfect for those who want to explore the Lake District, as well as there being plenty of beautiful walks surrounding the accommodation. It was a welcoming, romantic break and dogs are very welcome.

We particularly liked the peace and quiet at Milkmaid's Parlour. There are good walks from the door and it is really good for dogs, in a handy position for getting around the Lakes . We will go again.

Perfect getaway within walking distance of Cartmel. Lovely remote cottage.

“Wedding anniversary weekend”

We stayed in this cosy little cottage for our wedding anniversary and totally fell in love with it. A couple of mins drive into Cartmell to buy some presents and a nice sit outside one of the local pubs with a coffee. So peaceful and quiet and a lovely setting

“A delightful hideaway”

The Milkmaid's parlour is a charming, compact cottage. It is part of a series of restored cottages. It had a lovely atmosphere and wonderful surrounding gardens - especially the walled garden. Cartmel is a very special village - especially if you like eating out, or dining in with good quality ingredients! And of course there is the sticky toffee pudding association! The main lakes of the Lake District are also readily accessible. A lovely holiday all in all.

Longlands Cottages

Cartmel 1 mile. Dating back to the early 19th Century, these three Cartmel cottages are situated on the magnificent Longlands country house estate, on the fringes of the village of Cartmel in the Lake District. Occupying a commanding position at the foot of Hampsfell hills with sweeping views across the Cartmel valley and approached via a private driveway through beautiful parkland, these three Cartmel cottages are sure to impress with their grandeur and charm. Tucked away behind the main house, these three Cartmel cottages have been created out of what was originally the servants’ quarters and the stable blocks. Longlands has a superb walled kitchen-garden overflowing with the freshest natural produce just waiting to be explored and enjoyed. These three Cartmel cottages offer the perfect base for exploring the Lake District and Cumbria and a warm welcome will be extended to all.
