About this property

Cartmel 0.8 miles. Clock Tower is a unique, Grade II-listed, and tasteful property resting on the outskirts of Allithwaite, a small village on the Cartmel Peninsula. Set over three floors, the property offers a quirky combination of contemporary and traditional features, perfect for a tranquil family getaway to Cumbria. Enter into the elegant dining room, benefitting from plenty of natural lighting and elevated ceilings to exude a bright and airy feel; here you can enjoy delicious mealtimes or a board game, or carry your conversation into the sitting room, complete with a sofa, two armchairs, a woodburning stove and a Smart TV for on-demand entertainment, ideal for unwinding after a day of countryside rambles. The contemporary kitchen is sure to inspire some home-cooking with a range of integrated appliances, as well as ample worktop space with a central island that doubles as a breakfast bar. A beautiful spiral staircase winds to the first floor, where you can choose to spend some down time in the snug lounge area or retire to the bedrooms. The master benefits from a super-king-size bed and en-suite shower room, while there is also another bedroom on this floor which has a double bed served by a stylish bathroom. Climb to the second floor to reveal the final bedrooms, including a double and twin room which have vaulted ceilings and Velux windows offering elevated countryside views. Continuing to impress, laze away an evening with some alfresco dining in the beautiful gardens, or enjoy the luxury of having some relaxation time in the bubbling hot tub for even more moments to remember. A short walk will take you to Cartmel where you will find shops providing ingredients for a hearty breakfast. Why not visit Priory Gatehouse or make a day of it at the famous Cartmel Racecourse, with races held between the May and August Bank Holidays each year. Be sure to visit the town of Grange-over-Sands, perfect for a quiet seaside retreat with a traffic-free promenade to the shore and botanical gardens, as well as a wider choice of amenities including pretty cafés, heart-warming pubs, and high-street shops. Those seeking outdoor adventure can visit the Lake District National Park, with opportunities for walking, cycling, watersports and much more. With all this to look forward to and so much more, be sure to book a stay at Clock Tower.

Cartmel, in South Lakeland, is dubbed the Lake District's prettiest village. As the village's gatehouse, the Priory Church, one of northern England's finest ecclesiastical buildings, remains the community's heart. Welcoming traditional pubs serving real ale, the nationally acclaimed Michelin Star awarded L'Enclume restaurant and the famous Sticky Toffee Pudding Shop are just a few of the village's highlights. Visit the National Hunt Racecourse, Campbell Legend Bluebird Exhibition, Lakeland Motor Museum, and Holker Hall with its spectacular gardens, all nearby.

    The property is fabulous and as a family, we were able to make best use of the wonderful hot tub. Would definitely recommend.

  • Lorna

    Nothing was too much trouble. Loved the extra little touches (a fire ready to be lit and a welcome box of chocolates). Would recommend anyone to stay here.

  • Iain

    Possibly one of the best kept properties we’ve stayed in and location was great for exploring both locally and beyond.
