The Cavendish family's estate at Cark, two miles from Cartmel, with formal and woodland gardens, a deer park and a cafe, open Wednesday to Sunday and bank holiday Mondays from mid-March to the end of the season. Holker states that dogs are very welcome everywhere on the estate except inside the Hall, and asks that they are kept on leads at all times and picked up after, with bins provided across the estate. Tickets are bought at the kiosk on arrival; there is no pre-booking. The gardens run to twenty-five acres and the wider parkland walks are the reason to bring a dog rather than the borders.
Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.
Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Nobody has written one for Holker Hall gardens and estate. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
