The guesthouse felt more like a home from home. Lots of thought gone into little extras in the room. Dogs felt very at home. Breakfast was delicious and served in a lovely warm room.

Cartref was beautifully decorated throughout with a lovely welcoming and cosy vibe. My room was very comfortable and had some really nice person touches to make the stay extra cosy! This was an ideal location and the host was also very welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed. Thank you for a lovely stay!
That I hadn’t booked a longer stay haha

I had a really lovely stay at this B&B. The room was spotless and had a cosy, homely feel that made it easy to settle in. The owners were fantastic with their communication and always quick to respond. The location was spot on too, close to attractions, restaurants, and bars just a short walk away. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay

Be aware that it is next to a main route into Carlisle so I was awoken by traffic both mornings despite earplugs.

Everything was good, Just the fragrance was a little hard. I would request, room frangrance should be very light, not harsh or feel uncomfortable. Rest everything was amazing, Owner was very polite and supportive.

Clean comfortable accommodation, and friendly helpful service plus delicious breakfast. I was cycling and storing my bike was no problem. The guest house is convenient for the centre and places to eat and a short cycle (or walk) to the train station. Excellent value.
Nothing comes to mind.

Great for walkers- the owner has obviously paid a lot of attention to the things people need, including foot baths, etc...
The breakfast was phenomenal, absolute highlight and well worth it. I do not know how one person copes with that many requests (pancakes were brilliant)
