About this property
This cosy and stylish cottage makes a fantastic base for couples or small families looking to explore both the charm of Cockermouth and the natural beauty of the Lake District National Park. It’s right in the heart of this bustling market town, surrounded by independent shops, art galleries, welcoming pubs and excellent places to eat, all within 1 mile. For a touch of culture, visit the childhood home of William Wordsworth (0.5 miles), now a National Trust site, where peaceful gardens offer a lovely escape. Outdoor adventures are never far away, with the North Lakes of Bassenthwaite, Buttermere, Crummock and Loweswater all within 7 miles. Families will enjoy the Lake District Wildlife Park (7 miles), while thrill seekers can head to Whinlatter Forest (7 miles) for Go Ape or scenic cycling routes. Keswick (14 miles) is also within easy reach for boat trips and lakeside walks around Derwentwater.
Step inside and you’ll find a welcoming kitchen with white tiling, wooden accents and a range cooker for creating holiday feasts. This leads through to a bright and sociable lounge/diner, complete with a Smart TV and doors opening onto the patio. This relaxed living space is perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring, with a comfy sofa and armchair, and a wooden table for sharing meals. Upstairs, the cottage has two comfortable bedrooms: a king-size room and a charming twin with exposed beams for plenty of character. A family bathroom featuring a shower over the bath completes the inside quarters.
Outside, make the most of the garden, which has a patio area and outdoor furniture – ideal for sipping morning coffee or perhaps enjoying your evening meal when the weather allows. On-street parking is available just around the corner on Kirkbank, subject to availability.
