    “An excellent cottage with everything you need.”

    Great Garden for the dog and children to play in. Cottage very well maintained and everything provided with a loverly log burner also, plenty of parking also Very well situated only 5 mins away from a loverly little village with a excellent pub the Oddfellows arms plus some little shops and a little farm shop selling breakfast items. Definitely a cottage we would love to return to the next time we are in that area.

About the location

CALDBECK

Wigton 7.5 miles; Carlisle 12 miles; Keswick 16 miles; Cockermouth 17 miles.

The charming Cumbrian village of Caldbeck is situated on the northern fringes of the Lake District National Park and is surrounded by beautiful moorland and fells. It’s a classic stone built village with a church, pub, village green and duck pond. The church dates back to the 12th century and is famous for being the resting place of the renowned huntsman John Peel. Although in every sense a ‘traditional working village’, the local craft centre at Priest Mill and the riverside walks to the Howk gorge, draw visitors to Caldbeck. The village is an ideal base for the northern Lakes, the market town of Keswick, as well as Lakes Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite. The natural beauty of the Solway coast, well-known for its golf courses and the town of Cockermouth, the birthplace of William Wordsworth are close by, whilst also within driving distance is the cathedral city of Carlisle, Hadrian’s Wall and the Scottish Borders.

If you require the super king double to be made into a twin - please advise at the time of booking.
