Situated in a quiet residential area a short walk from Cockermouth town centre, with local amenities on your doorstep. A great retreat for couples or a family looking to explore the Lakes.
This fresh, light and bright property sits in a residential area in the lovely market town of Cockermouth. Sleeping five people across three bedrooms and welcoming one canine companion, it’s the perfect holiday home for small families or groups of friends who want to experience all the adventure and relaxation that the Lake District has to offer. Spend your days stand-up paddleboarding on Buttermere Lake and your evenings checking out the local pub scene in Cockermouth.
Kick off your day with a coffee on the pretty patio area. Plan the day ahead as any kids in your party enjoy the freedom in the enclosed garden. After a fabulous day immersing yourself in the tranquillity of Buttermere Lake, return to your retreat and cook up a feast in the sleek, contemporary kitchen. Eat together in the dining area, which has lovely garden views. After dinner, enjoy a glass of something cool and crisp on the patio, or make your way to the living room, slip onto the sofa in front of the electric coal-effect fire, and watch your favourite TV shows. When the day is done, there are two comfortable bedrooms on the first floor to choose from.
There’s a wonderfully quiet wild-swimming spot at Crummock Water (7.5 miles). Crummock has no annoying traffic, so there’s a good chance you’ll have it all to yourself. Alternatively, spend a pleasant afternoon discovering the whisky, vodka and gin at the Lakes Distillery (5.5 miles), which is located in a beautifully restored Victorian farmstead where alpacas roam the grounds. Foodies are sure to love the ‘Whisky and Chocolate Pairing’ tour. And if you don’t want to cook in the evening, just head into the heart of Cockermouth (1 mile), where there’s a whole host of fantastic eateries to discover.
