Groom's Quarters

Rated 4/50 by on 14th August 2018

"Set back in the grounds of Longlands estate, this cottage is full of character and period charm. A lovely place inside and out, whilst it may appear a little dated (think 1970's), it has all the latest facilities you'd need (free wifi with good strong signal throughout). This place is ideal if you have dogs, completely enclosed and all livestock fenced out. Cartmel is under a mile away, but you'd struggle to walk there on the roads, as they are a little unsafe without pavements. This would be the only downside though."

"Just had a few days at the Grooms Quarters Cartmel and it's been absolutely lovely. One of a few cottages adjacent to Longlands House set back well away from the roads so it's safe and has a feeling of the grand. The cottage itself felt really warm and cosy and perfect for us as a couple and our spaniel. We loved The original features and furniture and the old books. It felt like we had borrowed someone's home. The staff were really lovely and so helpful. There's a delightful walled garden and a good walk beyond and up to the fells. Recommended."

"My husband and I stopped Friday while Tuesday with our two Collies. It was lovely to get away in the countryside, the cottage was clean and tidy with a homely feel. We really enjoyed the nearby walks and will definitely be returning soon."

"Probably less than one mile from Cartmel. We have just returned from 3 nights in this cottage. The cottage was absolutely lovely. Open plan lounge with kitchen. Lovely fireplace, but fire not needed this weekend.Very comfortable large bed, and plenty of hot water in the bathroom. No trickling showers here. It was a cosy warm cottage a quarter of a mile from any traffic. Excellent car parking, dog heaven. We had 2 with us. We intended to go out during the evening but the cottage was so welcoming we stayed in every night. During the days we visited Cartmel a couple of times, and Lake Windermere and Bowness, all an easy drive. Fabulous dog walks from the cottage."

"This is a lovely, peaceful and quiet place to stay with fantastic views. Me and my boyfriend loved it here with our two dogs. Other friendly people and their dogs stayed in the area. The only thing I would suggest is if you're not staying here for the Cartmel races then don't stay here. It is dearer to stay when the races are on and traveling to other places can take a long time due to the race goers and coaches, which is ridiculous to send through such small roads. Other than that it was a lovely break away."

"We booked for two weeks as we needed a place to stay relocating to the area. As agreed before our arrival with Anthony, we found the key in the door. We turned on the spare heaters (it was cold outside!) and lit the lovely gas fire, unpacked and quickly settled in. The cottage is homely and well furnished. Some of the other cottages were being refurbished, it will be worth revisiting to stay in one of those when they are finished. Staff were very friendly and helpful when I needed some help with the washing machine. Cartmel is a lovely village (try the Sticky Toffee Pudding) and it was great to see racehorses training in the field early morning.. Brilliant stay - hope to go back!"

"The property is damp and dingy the smell was disgusting even the ambulance crew commented on the dampness as we had to call them out due to my wife having cardiomyopathy and the damp was making her ill. The decor was bad and the furniture was so outdated that the sofa was hard to sit on. We did complain to sykes cottages but they have taken the owners word for it that he denied all our complaints even though the ambulance crew backed our complaint up and sykes have refused to send anyone there to check it out no wonder they are leasing below standard properties"

"Welcome letter on arrival and everything explained. Cottage is furnished very well, warm and full of character. A lovely place inside and out. Fantastic bed! Storage heaters were very efficient and heated the whole cottage. Electric shower over the bath worked well, but not a power shower! Wifi worked perfectly with good strong signal throughout. Never needed to call anyone as has no problems :) Cartmel is a lovely village and the shops are cute. I attended the Remembrance service in the lovely Priory. Well worth a visit. Grange over Sands, 10 mins away, has bigger Spar/Co-Op etc than Cartmel and take-aways if you want more than Cartmel has. So much to do within 45 mins in the car. The South Lakes Wild animal Park is a great day out. Very spacious and a lot are walking around with you!"
