No.2 The Flags

No.2 The Flags occupies a prime position in the heart of Cartmel, one of Cumbria’s most celebrated villages, placing you right on the edge of the Lake District National Park. Surrounded by historic streets, independent shops and renowned food spots, this impressive holiday home offers a superb base for families or friends looking to experience village life alongside lakes, fells and coastline.

Traditional features sit comfortably alongside modern touches, with a woodburning stove and an outdoor hot tub adding extra appeal to your stay. The main living space is generous and well arranged, creating a natural gathering point after days spent exploring the Lake District.

A woodburning stove brings a welcoming glow during cooler evenings, while comfortable seating invites long conversations, film nights, or quiet moments with a book. The fully fitted kitchen is thoughtfully designed around a classic Belfast sink and provides everything needed for confident self-catering, whether you’re preparing a hearty breakfast or a celebratory dinner.

On the ground floor, a king-size bedroom with its own en-suite shower room offers added flexibility, particularly for guests who prefer to avoid stairs. Upstairs, the sleeping accommodation is arranged to suit a variety of group sizes.

A further king-size bedroom and a double provide restful retreats, while the family room features a bunk arrangement with a double bed below and a single above. Outside, the private area is perfect for spending time outdoors, whether you’re enjoying meals in the fresh air or easing into the evening with a soak in the hot tub beneath the Cumbrian sky.

With Cartmel’s village amenities close at hand, everything you need is right on your doorstep. The surrounding area offers an outstanding range of days out.

Lakeside is perfect for a gentle introduction to the region, where you can enjoy scenic lake cruises across Windermere, explore the Lakes Aquarium with its local wildlife displays, or wander along the shoreline soaking up waterside views. Windermere itself offers a livelier pace, with opportunities for paddleboarding, kayaking and boat hire, family-friendly attractions at the World of Beatrix Potter, and lakeside cafés ideal for watching boats drift by.
