The Cartford Inn

The personal touch

Patrick and Julie Beaumé have been running the 17th-century Cartford Inn Little Eccleston, on the River Wyre since 2007, and the place can’t have looked any better anytime over the last 400 years. Turning a scruffy old drinking pub into a sophisticated eating inn with glamorous bedrooms takes no small amount of passion, and they’re not short of that! They’ve kept the best bits like the open fires, wood floors and etched glass, and brought it bang up to date and added some genuine personality to the place via quirky (but tasteful) décor. It’s still very much a pub appreciated by the local community, but it’s also a rather dynamic restaurant with super-cool boutique bedrooms. Settle into a smartly upholstered chair and tuck into a sandwich filled with local cheese and a pint, or step into the graceful River Lounge overlooking the rolling Bowland Fells and push the boat out for a meal made seasonal regional ingredients. The revamped River House has private dining facilities and another refurbished outbuilding houses TOTI, a new shop and delicatessen with characteristic style and rustic charm. It showcases some of the best produce from across the region, specialist ingredients, the inn's own artisan products and works by local artists and craftspeople. Patrick and Julie are hands on and very personable and, if you get chatting with them during your stay, they may well buy you a drink.
 

Sticky fingers

Children under ten have their own menu with chicken & chips, sausage & mash and such like (a fiver per main course). Children are not encouraged in the River Lounge, and the owners also like the pub areas to be a child-free after eight o’clock.
 

Muddy paws

Dogs are not allowed in the pub, but are welcome on the terrace.
 

Alfresco

The flag-stoned patio garden with its view over the river and countryside makes a great spot for lunch or dinner on a summer’s evening.
 

What’s on?

On Friday nights local musicians rock up and jam (nothing too heavy, mind; more folky than heavy metal).

The Cartford Inn

Do not disturb

Julie’s designer’eye is much in evidence throughout the entire inn, not least in the 15 boutique bedrooms, so expect vintage finds, contemporary artworks and all-round va-va-voom. No two rooms look the same. Everything from retro wallpapers, trendy light fittings and striking pieces of furniture combine to create spaces that impress. The king-size beds don’t just look good, they’re comfy too, and the linen is all high quality stuff. Many of the rooms have views of the river, while those in the attic space have plenty of light from skylights in the roof. The star of the show is the penthouse occupying the top floor of the riverside annexe, with its dashing bathroom with his and hers showers and a free-standing roll-top bath (it’s even got its own terrace with glorious rural views).

The Cartford Inn

Mastering the menu

The kitchen’s output reflects Lancashire’s five-star food credentials and shows off the best the county (and the wider region) has to offer in dishes that impress with their combination of rustic appeal and dash of refinement. You’ll spot a Gallic influence here and there, too, which is down to Patrick’s French heritage. Nibbles are served at the handsome bar (the sea salt and cracked pepper calamari is a winner), with the à la carte menu offered throughout the pub – sit where you like, but the stunning River Lounge with its views over the fells is hard to beat. Respect of the seasons is not just lip service at the Cartford Inn, with the daily specials board adding to the mix and the treasured local supply chain ensuring a flow of top-notch produce into the kitchen. Kick off with warm pigeon breast and blackberry salad with candied beets, or a genteel scallop mousseline cannelloni, and move onto Pilling pulled marsh lamb in caul fat with sweet potato mash or a bouillabaisse made with seafood from nearby Fleetwood. The Cartford cassoulet is packed with chorizo, ham hock and smoked pork belly – a rib-sticking beauty, perfect after a walk on the hills on a chilly day. The grill offers up steaks served with classic accompaniments, and there’s all the comfort of fish and chips or moules frites. At lunchtime, sandwiches, French-style omelette and toasties come into play, and, on Sundays, tuck into roast dinners by the fire or, if it’s warm enough, outside on the terrace.
 

On the menu

Leagram goats’ curd cheese, courgette and crème fraîche tartlet with watercress, pickled wild mushrooms and coriander seeds £6.50
Warm pigeon breast and blackberry salad, candied and golden beetroot, crispy pancetta, balsamic and olive oil dressing £7.25
Tempura langoustine, tartare sauce, salad garnish £6.95
Oxtail and beef in real ale suet pudding £13.95
Roast Goosnargh chicken breast, buttered Savoy cabbage with pancetta, fondant potato, Chantenay carrots, shallot and cider cream sauce £14  
Salted maple and pecan pie, ginger ice cream £5.75
 

Sunday Roasts

The à la carte menu is served on Sundays, plus there’s always a roast of the day.
 

Foodie Extras

The sheltered patio out back is ideal for alfresco dining in the warmer months, with the full-service à la carte menu up for grabs. There are plans afoot for hog roasts and BBQs.

WALKING

www.visitlancashire.com
www.forestofbowland.com
www.morecambebay.com
The Fylde coast between Morecambe Bay and Lytham St Anne’s offers miles of spectacular open coastline where you are quite literally biffed and buffeted by the stiff breezes and high winds of the Irish Sea. If invigorating coastal walking is your thing, you’ll love this part of Lancashire. For something that is a world away from bracing beach trekking is a trip to the nearby Forest of Bowland. Here, you’ll find a secret landscape characterised by rugged grandeur and welcome solitude. While in Bowland, why not follow a stretch of the Ribble Way or part of the Pendle Way, two popular long-distance trails. The famous tradition of crossing treacherous Morecambe Bay on foot in the company of an experienced local guide might not be to everyone’s taste but if you like adventure and the salty tang of the sea, this is for you. Make sure you book first.

CYCLING

www.cycle-route.com
www.forestry.gov.uk/northwestengland
Try the golden beaches between Blackpool and Fleetwood for that exhilarating wind-in-your-face experience. The views out to the Irish Sea are stunning. Inland and equally suitable for cycling, is the Forest of Bowland, a natural wilderness at the heart of North-west England.

BOOKINGS AND VOUCHERS

Our site is an online platform that allows you to search for and book accommodation. We are acting as disclosed agent for the relevant inns featured on our site. This means that any booking or contractual arrangement you make with any entity featured on our site is made with that entity, and not with us. By entering information into the booking software, you authorise us to pass on all relevant information to those entities with whom you are seeking to make a reservation, and to control and/or process such data in accordance with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998. In order to make a booking you are required to provide credit card details. We will enable the relevant inn to gain access to the credit card details via the site in the event of any cancellation and a cancellation charge is due. By making a booking you are expressly authorising access to and use of such data and for the relevant inn to deduct the cancellation charges notified to you in the event of a cancellation.

Bookings will be subject to the terms and conditions of the individual entity with whom you contract, including any cancellation polices they may apply. It is your responsibility to check the terms of such entities before you enter your contract with them. If you wish to cancel a booking, you must cancel using the site unless exceptional circumstances do not permit you to gain access to the site, in which case you should liaise directly with the inn concerned. In either case you may be liable for cancellation charges. Whenever your booking is cancelled whether directly or via the site, it is your responsibility to check your account with HIP to confirm the booking has been cancelled and to be notified of any relevant charges (and to pay them). If you do not attend the inn on the dates booked, this will be treated as a cancellation by the relevant inn on the applicable terms. The accommodation provider’s cancellation policy may continue to apply after your arrival at your inn. In the event that you decide to shorten the duration of your stay, such a request will be dealt with at the discretion of the accommodation provider, and not by us in our capacity as the booking agent. If you amend your booking in this way there may be a cancellation fee levied by the accommodation provider and you should refer to the provider’s cancellation policy for more details. Where the accommodation provider requires a minimum stay for rooms attracting a certain price, this will be clearly stated on our site prior to booking.

We are not responsible for inaccuracies in the booking process; you must check carefully the agreed dates and prices before completing your booking. In particular, you are advised to check the availability of any offers, promotional codes, or the acceptance of gift vouchers before completing the booking, as well as whether any special requirements you may have can be met. Please note that Inn Places Special Gifts may not be available at all the inns where special promotions are being run, and such promotions may have additional terms and conditions applicable.

Although we gather credit card information to secure the booking, the booking will be with the relevant inn to whom, by virtue of you starting the booking process you authorise us to transmit the credit card information.

To confirm a booking, you must be authorised to make the booking by all the persons named on the booking and their parent or guardian for all party members who are under 18 when the booking is made. By making the booking, you are confirming that all persons named on the booking accept the terms and that you will inform the other persons named on the booking of the confirmation details and any other appropriate information. By making the booking you also become responsible for making all payments due under the booking.

The display of accommodation for hire on the site is an invitation to treat only.

By completing and submitting the booking form you are making an offer to book temporary accommodation room nights, which if accepted by accommodation providers, will result in a binding contract made between you and the accommodation provider.

Completing the booking process online does not constitute acceptance of your offer. We will send you an email confirmation following your booking on behalf of the accommodation provider confirming acceptance of your offer and forming the legally binding contract subject to any applicable terms and conditions.

Because the contract for your accommodation is between you and the relevant inn, any queries or concerns should be addressed to them. If you have a problem during your visit, this must be reported to the inn immediately. If you fail to follow this procedure there will be less opportunity for the inn to investigate and rectify your complaint. The amount of compensation you may be entitled to from the inn may be reduced or you may not receive any at all depending upon the circumstances. If you wish to complain when you return home, you should address your complaint to the inn concerned.
