About this property

Located in the heart of the market town Cockermouth in Cumbria is Dora’s Cottage. This charming, white-washed semi-detached property sleeps up to three guests in two bedrooms, making it ideal for a couple or small family looking for a retreat in the Lake District. After a busy day exploring Cumbria, park up on the driveway that is big enough for two cars and enter your home-away-from-home where comfort awaits. Snuggle up on the sofa in the spacious sitting area while your partner pampers you with a romantic meal, enjoy this together in the kitchen/diner that is fully-equipped to meet all your culinary needs. Head into the conservatory after dinner to relax, or if the weather permits, step outside and pop open a bottle of fizz in the private garden which is home to furniture; toast your trip here and watch as the sun sets over Cumbria. As the evening draws to a close, head upstairs to wash off the day's adventures in the walk-in shower then retire to the spacious king-size bedroom. This floor is also home to a single bedroom. Slope off to sleep to the sound of your favourite film playing on the TV and rest up for another exciting day exploring Cumbria, the coast, and the Lake District. Dora’s Cottage lies in the centre of the Lake District in Cockermouth which is a vibrant market town with a rich history. With attractions like the National Trust - Wordsworth House and Garden, Memorial Gardens, and Percy House Gallery, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Cockermouth is the perfect place to relax and enjoy some quality time with your partner or family. This beautiful property is also conveniently located near Keswick, a charming market town that offers visitors a wealth of attractions, restaurants, and cafes. Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Derwent Pencil Museum, and the Keswick Museum are all must-sees, while foodies will love the variety of restaurants and bars on offer, including Merienda, Lakes Bar and Bistro, and the Drunken Duck. For those looking for a caffeine fix, there are plenty of cafes to choose from, including the Keswick Coffee House and the Bay Tree. Venture further afield to Carlisle, a picturesque city in Cumbria. It is home to Carlisle Castle, Carlisle Cathedral, and Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery. The city is also located close to beautiful countryside and parks including Hammond's Pond and Heysham Park. Enjoy a romantic retreat or family getaway in Dora’s Cottage, Cockermouth.

Cockermouth is a small country market town located in the north western portion of the Lake District, in a region that is mainly unexplored and untouched, yet is only 13 miles from Keswick. The town is famed for being the birthplace of both William Wordsworth the poet and Fletcher Christian (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame). Wordsworth's Georgian family home is now a popular tourist attraction held by the National Trust. Cockermouth has a wide range of shops, pubs, and restaurants, but the area's major draw is the stunning scenery and excellent hiking around the northern lakes - Bassenthwaite Lake, Ennerdale Water, and Derwent Water.
