Carlisle Holiday Cottages

As a holiday maker you have a great number of accommodation choices when it comes to staying away in the UK. Often the most beautiful cottages can be found in the most unexpected places. More than ever before, there's a good selection of holiday cottages in and around Carlisle. Kids love staying in cottages and although hotels can have more facilities, there's not the same sense of adventure - and there are certainly more rules and regulations. So you can let you kids do whatever they want (as long as you're happy!) without fear of being too noisy or too messy.

Renting is a great way to spend a week away. Please try to book your holiday in advance as last minute reservations are possible but obviously not guaranteed! Knowing what everyone wants can make a big difference when you book your holiday accommodation in Carlisle. Although location and the core facilities play a large part in the decision, please make sure you pay attention to the beds. Make sure you know who is prepared to share a room, and who isn't - it's not always obvious til you ask.

Cumbria is blessed with a large number of very excellent holiday cottages suitable for families, couples and just friends. Our site is focused on finding and recommending accommodation, we do not make the bookings, so if you have concerns, please contact the company who took your booking. Even if you already have a busy itinerary planned for your holiday you might want to consider some additional activities in Carlisle and Cumbria. These can include mountain biking, swimming, road cycling, climbing, canoeing, flying kites, shooting - as well as tennis and golf. Or maybe you'd be happier sitting by the side of a river with a fishing rod, a cup of coffee and a good friend?

Self-catering can make a cottage holiday in Carlisle much more flexible, allowing you to eat whatever you want (or can cook). It's great to cook your own food, know exactly what ingredients are going in, and enjoying the reward of a great meal. Without a doubt the main way holiday makers get to their cottage is by car, because it's the easiest. With the cost of petrol ever increasing it's worth investigating alternative travel arrangements. Buses and coaches are often surprisingly good value, and a train journey will take you through countryside you'll never see from the road.
