For anyone looking for accom. just pm me roughly what you want. There are lots of rental cottages, pubs, B&Bs, country house hotels. Michelin star restaurant/hotels, anything really. I can get cheaper rates for some.
Heres an example to start you off.

For this selection I have put in Cartmel as a search, thats two miles away. Do a search to get distances to the Rose and Crown. We have plenty of Taxis but they need to be booked well in advance.
