Hidden delight only 2 miles from the picturesque village of Cartmel. Breakfast is served in the sunny conservatory . Local produce and eggs from the owner's free range hens. Comfortable beds and helpful hostess. Great selection of pubs and restaurants in Cartmel. Local taxis available.

Hello Annes and Ians - and thank you very much indeed for reviewing your recent stay at Broughton House. I'm so glad you enjoyed ourselves, in spite of the rather inclement weather!

We stayed in Ben's Yurt in garden and really enjoyed it. Ben's Yurt is ideal for families as it's like staying in luxury campsite, you have your own piece of garden with barbecue place and authentic monglolian yourt in middle of it. Breakfast was one of the best I've ever had. Definitely going to come back.

Hello Sergey - and thank you so much for reviewing Ben's Yurt. It was lovely to meet you both, and I'm delighted that you enjoyed your night in the Yurt and the Cabin. The Cabin now has a splendid double bed, on one side, so there would be room for all the family. Hope you can return one day, to... More

Just returned from a very relaxing two night break in Cartmel and stayed at the wonderful Broughton House. The house and rooms are great but what makes this a wonderful place to stay is Cate Davies to whom nothing is too much trouble in ensuring her guests have everything they need. It's the little things that make a huge difference... More

Oh my goodness! Thank you for such a lovely review - it's made my morning.

Having just got back from a relaxing stay at Broughton House we are now reflecting on what was a wonderful time spent in this beautiful location. The spacious bedroom (East), with views across the local countryside, is very charming and both it and the bathroom were spotlessly clean. Cate’s attention to detail is second to none and her hospitality makes... More

Had an extremely comfortable stay here with a fabulous breakfast next morning which exceeded our expectations. Nothing was too much trouble for Cate who was a fund of useful information and interesting stories about the area. The house itself is beautiful with many homely touches: the bedrooms are very prettily furnished;the bathrooms are large, warm and spotless. Cate's magazine and... More

We loved it here - a great house, very comfortable room and superb bathroom.
