This property's stunning views have to be seen to be believed, set in the beautiful Lake District National Park near the town of Cockermouth. Cockermouth is only a short drive away and has an abundance of eateries and shops so you will not be found wanting. Keswick is only a short drive away - a tourist hot spot, which provides an array of independent shops, eateries, galleries, and parks to enjoy all on the shores of Derwentwater. Bassenthwaite Lake is the most northerly lake in the region and is a great place to head out on the water. On the northern shore of the lake, the Lakes Distillery offers tasting tours and is also home to a bistro and a group of resident alpacas who visitors are able to hand feed.
On arrival, you will be greeted by the spacious yard partially shared with farming activities and the historic farmhouse itself. Enter through the porch and front door into the lounge, which is equipped with plenty of seating, including three large sofas, with Smart TV and cosy wood burner. To the left, you will find yourself in the amazing sunroom with stunning views over the fields and fells beyond with plenty of seating to choose from. Off the sunroom is the boot room equipped with a small drinks fridge and plenty of space to hang and dry out those coats and boots after a day of exploring all the incredible walks, including the Allerdale Ramble right from your door. Next, you enter the impressive dining room with a large hardwood table and chairs for those family feasts. Off the dining room, a well-equipped pantry has a dishwasher and sink, and plenty of crockery. Continue through the dining room into the country-style kitchen, a cook’s dream, with an electric Range oven with hob and double-oven, microwave, and plenty of preparation space. Next door is the utility room which holds the fridge/freezer, additional fridge, a chest freezer, as well as a washing machine, separate tumble dryer along with plenty of space to store supplies for your holiday. Back into the kitchen head past a WC, into the lounge. The first double bedroom, the farmhouse’s original dairy, is on the ground floor with views up the Derwent Valley and a shower room with a shower and WC. Back out into the lounge and head up the stairs to the first floor, turning right you will find a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room with shower and WC with amazing views south across the National Park. Next are two twin rooms both with an en-suite shower room with shower and WC. Up to two steps we find two double bedrooms, also with en-suite shower room with shower and WC. Head along the upstairs corridor and we have the final two rooms which are both super-king-size bedrooms equipped with en-suite bathrooms with shower over the bath and WC.
The property boasts amazing views over the countryside. The area at the bottom of the yard is a perfect spot to relax and fully appreciate your surroundings. There is ample private on-site parking.
