The property is very convenient for M6 and there is free parking. We received a warm welcome from the owner. The little extras also made us feel very welcome and were appreciated, especially the fresh coffee and cafetière in our room. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We will definitely try to stay here again on our next trip to Scotland.

Very welcoming, lovely breakfast, very clean and warm and friendly

Very welcoming, clean and central, great breakfast.

I absolutely LOVED my overnight stay at Cartref! My room was so lovely- spacious, bright, airy, and spotlessly clean everywhere. The furniture in my room was all very tasteful, useful and modern; and the bed was super comfortable, with immaculately clean white bedding. Melanie (the owner) is so friendly, welcoming, and caring about her guests- this really shows in her great attention to detail in all areas of the property. The en-suite bathroom was beautifully clean and stylish with excellent quality local toiletries, plenty of towels, an excellent shower and a gorgeously soft bathrobe and slippers. There was a mini fridge in the room, containing bottles of chilled water and fresh milk for a cuppa. Plenty of teabags, coffee and hot chocolate by the kettle, and even a cute little jar of marshmallows to add to the hot chocolate. My room had two smart comfy chairs and a little coffee table; as well as a handy dressing table. The lighting was all great, and there were plenty of places to plug in chargers, hairdryer etc. There is a great breakfast menu to choose from, and it was really pleasant to sit in the pretty dining room the next morning. My breakfast was really tasty, and it was lovely to have a whole pot of tea served rather than just the usual cup with a teabag and a tiny pot of hot water! I can't fault Cartref; it's a short walk from the train station/short walk into town and a lovely place to stay. I will definitely book to stay again next time I visit Carlisle!
