Surrounded by farmland, this country style property sleeps six guests, just 4 miles from the vibrant Georgian market town of Cockermouth. It s ideal for families or friends who love the outdoors. If you enjoy hiking, explore Loweswater (4 miles), Crummock Water (8.5 miles) and Buttermere (10 miles). Long distance cyclists can hop on two wheels at Workington Beach (9 miles) and join the 140 mile Sea to Sea cycle towards the Pennines, and as far as Tynemouth on the north east coast. Or, take a leisurely stroll on the coast path near Siddick (10 miles) where you can spot birdlife and butterflies at the nature reserve. Pretty Whitehaven harbour (12 miles), and the fascinating St Bees Heritage Coast are also in reach (15 miles). Step inside to find traditional country style interiors and handsome period features from exposed oak beams, and leaded style diamond windows, to a magnificent stone dating to 1662 at the front of the property. Cook up a storm in the well equipped kitchen which has everything you need including an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, and dishwasher; gather around the kitchen s breakfast table for informal home cooked meals. There s a convenient utility room beside the kitchen which houses a washing machine, tumble dryer, and a WC. Mark special occasions in the bright and airy dining room with its handsome dresser and pretty garden views. After a busy day exploring Cumbria s market towns and hilltops, the living room is the place to settle into cosy seating by the warming open fire for some film time on the Smart TV or DVD player. Or, choose a book from the shelf and curl up in one of the armchairs for reading time.
