Cartmel restaurants include big-hitters, even including restaurants that have previously made it into our prestigious SquareMeal Top 100 UK Restaurants list. This isn’t too surprising, given that there are some seriously famous chefs living there. As such you can choose from relaxed to fancy dining at all times of the day.
