What a fantastic house, really well equipped, comfortable beds and crisp cotton linen. Lovely area to sit out in. Perfect location. I would highly recommend this beautiful house for a stay in Cartmel.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The facilities are fabulous for a large group or family. Clean, comfortable and a great location. The host has been attentive and proactive too ensure that our expectations have been met.
We booked Ford House for a friend's 50th birthday. Judy was excellent to deal with, responding extremely quickly to our queries.
Ford House is the most beautiful place to stay and the location was perfect, think I can safely say everyone loved their time there!
Beautiful house in Central location, ideal for me and my friends to celebrate my 60th. Very clean accommodation, all rooms lovely. Communication with owner was fast for any query before and during stay. Small issue with hot water, which was then sorted out very quickly and did not spoil the weekend. Would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future
Absolute fabulous stay at Ford house, I love Cartmel and the house exceeded expectations and made the trip more memorable & deepened my love of this beautiful village.
The property was all it said it would be. We were also very pleasantly surprised with the size of the garden which appeared smaller in the photos. Fantastic customer support from the property owner.
Highly recommend - Iâd love to stay here again. Perfect location for Cartmelâs restaurants, super comfortable for a group across 3 floors, great comms with Judy. Special place to stay!
Judy Staples We are a family of 5 with 3 daughters. We have always holidayed in the Lakes and Cornwall introducing our girls to the sea, surfing, lakes and Beatrix Potter!
We bought Ford House in 2014 after it came back unexpectedly on the market. It was already perfectly set up as a luxury holiday home catering for large groups with unique charm and features. As a family we often visit the Lake District and both my husband and I were brought up holidaying here as children.I particularly spent a lot of time in Grange over Sands with a day trip to Cartmel as an annual treat. The Lakes have a magical quality for me and I always feel I've escaped when there. Cartmel has so much more to offer these days and is a stepping stone to the many lakes and fells.
Ford House is right in the heart of the village, in The Square. We have immediate access to many eateries or a variety of artisan shops for a meal at home. To be so close to the racecourse is exciting on those meet days and you can take picturesque walks without getting in the car. All the bedrooms are attractive and spacious and no one feels they have second best. The garden is a lovely sun trap and the sitting room a cosy haven.
