Cartmel
Cartmel is a peaceful pretty village where the pace of life is gentle except for when Cartmel has its race days!
It is a medieval village and the market square still has its fish slabs where "flukes" better known as flounders would be displayed for sale.There are winding streets,shops and pubs plus a well renowned restaurant L'Enclume.
The Priory or Church of St Mary is 800 years old having survived the dissolution and bread is still left in the building for the poor of the parish.
Holker Hall is nearby as is the town of Grange over Sands and the shores of Morecambe Bay are never far away.
