A warm welcome over Ulverston and the Cumbria Way

Set in an acre of peaceful walled gardens, St Mary’s Mount Country House is a comfortable and elegant property with views over Ulverston and Morecambe Bay. The house dates back to 1825 and is full of period features, warmed by the welcome of your very friendly hosts.

St Mary’s Mount has eight luxurious guest rooms, retaining open fireplaces and antique beds and furnishings but adding comfortable modern mattresses and crisp new linens. In keeping with a period property, each room is individual though all share certain facilities: tea and coffee-making equipment, flat-screen TVs and bathrobes. Though the rooms have a charming country-house appeal, step into your en-suite bathrooms and you’ll find super-modern facilities, gleaming porcelain and quality toiletries. All in all it’s far more than you’d expect for so modest a price.

Guests here aren’t confined to their rooms. There’s a dedicated dining room for breakfast – and for other meals by arrangement – as well as sitting rooms and a conservatory with magnificent views over the sea. Best of all there are the grounds, a full acre of beautifully tended gardens, walled for privacy and warmth but giving glorious views over Ulverston.
