A lovely big house with all wanted amenities. The garden was beautiful and peaceful, the house was clean and obviously well maintained. It was in a quiet farm location but still close to shops and only 7 minutes from the fantastic Cayton Bay.

We had a lovely time at Carr House, the facilities and the hot tub were great , our dog loved the garden , and all the dog stuff so we didn't have to bring her basket, the lounges were super comfy and we even used the garden furniture as we had great weather, would definitely book again if we are in that part of the country, the only thing we we found a bit uncomfortable was the bed in the big bedroom, the mattress was very hard¹
