    “My family, including my mum and dad, thoroughly enjoyed staying at the cottage over Christmas.”

    It’s perfectly positioned to ensure calmness and privacy but then is also in close proximity to the beach, the fells, Muncaster castle, the Ratty and Irton Hall. This side of the Lakes is most definitely the hidden gem. The cottage itself was warm and cosy with a well equipped kitchen and a beautiful sun room where you can sit and drink your coffee in the morning watching the sun rise.

    It’s perfectly positioned to ensure calmness and privacy but then is also in close proximity to the beach, the fells, Muncaster castle, the Ratty and Irton Hall. This side of the Lakes is most definitely the hidden gem. The cottage itself was warm and cosy with a well equipped kitchen and a beautiful sun room where you can sit and drink your coffee in the morning watching the sun rise. The grounds wrap around the house and are perfect for the slower adventurer. For those wanting a longer trek, a quick stroll out of the front door and over the bridge, takes you further a field onto the well signed bridle paths. Our dog, Piper, loved all of her dogs. Throughout our booking, we had brilliant communication, not only with the agent but also the owner. They even kindly decorated the cottage for us with Christmas decorations. A very lovely touch! I would recommend the cottage to anyone wanting to stay in this part of the Lake District. We will definitely be back. Thank you, Zoe

    Thanks for your lovely review Zoe. We love staying in the cottage ourselves at Christmas but when we're not there ourselves it's great to be able to share it with such appreciative guests! We look forward to welcoming you back in the future, Graham & Nicky Property Owner

About the location

HOLMROOK

Seascale 3.5 miles; Whitehaven 14.5 miles.

Nestled in the countryside of the sought-after county of Cumbria, on the edge of the picturesque Lake District National Park, rests the pint-sized linear village of Holmrook. The village benefits from having a convenience store set within a petrol station, and a Post Office, along with a bar and restaurant nestled within a hotel, there's all of the essential amenities to ensure an enjoyable staycation! Resting on the banks of the River Irt, Holmrook is a lovely spot to watch the world go by with a scenic stroll, or for a more strenuous walk, venture further afield to climb the challenging peaks of The Lakes! The coastline is within easy reach, decorated with sand, dunes, and quaint towns, offering a plethora of walking and sightseeing opportunities. Holmrook is perfectly situated to explore the delights of both the coast and country of Cumbria.

Please note: this property has a minimum of 5 nights and must end on or before Friday.
