Broughton House Cartmel

The lovely Little Garden House is the perfect retreat for one person. Unfortunately the one charming person who booked it for all of next week has now cancelled, so it is unexpectedly available and seeking a solo traveller to snap it up. £70 a night and bookable on www.broughtonhousecartmel.co.uk

I had a booking for NYE for a Charlotte. She cancelled, but another Charlotte booked. Now she has cancelled too, so the Garden House is suddenly available for a lovely relaxing post-Christmas break. £90 a night for two, or £75 a night for one. You can book through my website, or by messaging me, but if your name is Charlotte I might ask you for a deposit!!!!!

The Lake District is beautiful in the autumn, as the trees slowly change colour and the nights draw in meaning cosy nights by the fire and abandoning salad niçoise and rosé for coq au vin and a bottle of red w**e! The woods at High Dam make a wonderful walk and are only minutes from BH., but an hour and a half will get you to Buttermere, at the other end of the Lake District. In between you can find many beautiful walks, high and low level to suit everyone, and lots of indoor attractions for days like today when we are refilling the lakes. Try the Garden Houses, or be nomadic and glamp in the Yurt and the Cabin. You can book online at www.broughtonhousecartmel.co.uk Hope to see you soon

Looking out over the garden at Broughton House, the Little Garden House is a wonderful retreat for the solo traveller

I am off to Colombia for a fortnight in August, and have had an unexpected cancellation for the week commencing the 11th. My wonderful house-sitter, Trish, will be in residence to look after my guests, the dog, the cats, and the hens, but I don’t want to saddle her with seven changeovers, so if anyone fancies a break in the Cartmel Valley the Little House is yours for the special price of £300 for seven nights

Good internet if you want to work remotely, lots of nearby walks and swimming opportunities, and some lovely pubs too

Book online at www.broughtonhousecartmel.co.uk - ignoring the price that comes up - or message me on here

l have had a last minute cancellation for the Little Garden House this weekend, so if anyone fancies a trip to Cartmel Races?
(I do have a folding bed if there are two of you and you don’t mind it being a bit cosy!) You can book on www.broughtonhousecartmel.co.uk

the garden at Broughton House is looking particularly beautiful at this time of the year. My lucky guests have been enjoying wall to wall sunshine, supper in the garden, and a lovely glass of something cold in the tent. Makes up for all that rain in the winter…..

Although it’s only March, spring is definitely in the air, and sitting outside has suddenly become an option. Whether you stay in the Yurt and the Cabin, or one of the Garden Houses at Broughton House, you can bask in the spring sunshine and enjoy a glass of w**e, or a cup of tea, whilst listening to the birds singing their feathery socks off

My hens work hard to provide lovely freshly laid eggs for my guests to enjoy, but I can’t help think that some try harder than others! Luckily, they all taste equally delicious, but someone’s eyes might have been watering this morning!!

The Little Garden House at Broughton House is very popular with solo travellers, but - if it’s not available, or you fancy a bit more space - did you know that you can also book the Garden House for one person? If you book directly it costs £65 a night (until the end of March, when I am having to up my prices for the first time in a while - sorry!)
