Family-friendly development. Set on the edge of a village, these cottages are ideal for exploring Cockermouth and the northern fells and lakes, and enjoy stunning scenery without experiencing the same hustle and bustle of the central Lakes. Finished to a very good standard, the cottages have everything you need for family getaways including a hot tub each (for private hire), also with in walking distance there is a heated swimming pool available too hire privately. Each cottage has its own style and attributes but all share lovely outlooks over farmland towards the Solway Coast which is 4 miles away which has lovely beach with long walks with paths along the coast great for dog walkers then relax and grab an ice cream or head too the local pub for a meal in allonby or visit silloth and maryport two off the harbour towns on the solway coast with coffee shops, cafés, pubs takeaways and supermarkets or venture into the north lakes keswick only 14 miles away which has lots outdoor stuff to do with two lakes bassethwaite and derwent water in the area great for water activities paddle boarding ,swimming ,canoeing this property is next door too other cottages great for big family/friends get togethers. These include Halls Bank Farm (ref 13196) is a 17th-century sandstone farmhouse, tastefully decorated. Its original outhouses stand in a walled courtyard where a stream runs through to the paddock. Berwyn Bank ref 15825 is a wonderful sandstone barn attached to Halls Bank Farm and has been skilfully converted, retaining much of its character, with some flagged floors and beams. A large living room on the first floor gives super views towards the Scottish mountains and Solway Coast. It was originally a bank barn, therefore there is an external level access to both the ground and first floor. It also has a private enclosed garden. Previously a barn in a former 17th-century farmsteading, Beckside (ref 17926) is a charming single-storey, detached stone cottage that has been totally restored with exposed beams and interesting features. It stands adjacent to the swimming pool. Spacious and well-presented, Stackgarth (ref 29673) is a charming, detached holiday bungalow with thoughtful and welcoming touches.

More information in welcome booklet re: operating equipment and how to set heating. Other minor points showers leak slightly and toilet seat needs attention. It felt there were loose floorboards in passageway. Nothing to spoil our time there. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

As the weather wasn't great we had a very relaxing holiday. Used the hot tub a lot. Very disappointed that the swimming pool was fully booked. Thought it was a little expensive but would have used it if available. Overall view, the cottage was very comfortable ,clean and every piece of equipment needed was there.

Beautiful bungalow with bags of space! Well equipped for our stay and lovely and warm. If you require shops nearby then this isn’t for you as it is out in the sticks but we knew this and took lots of food and drink. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay
