The property

8 Corkickle is an impressive Georgian townhouse with seven bedrooms, located in the coastal town of Whitehaven, Cumbria.

This elegant and pet-friendly property sits close to a wealth of amenities, the marina and the beach, and is just a short drive from the Lake District National Park, making it an ideal base for families and large groups eager to explore the region. Arrive to convenient roadside parking, where you can unload and admire the grandeur of your new holiday home.

To the front, an enclosed garden offers space for alfresco dining and a safe area for your four-legged friend to roam, while the rear courtyard provides a private setting for entertaining, complete with outdoor furniture and a hot tub for relaxing evenings. Step inside to a spacious sitting room, where plenty of plush seating invites you to unwind beside the woodburning stove, casting a warm glow across the room.

The well-equipped kitchen has everything needed to prepare hearty family meals, which can be enjoyed in the formal dining room, adorned with lofty ceilings and antique furnishings.

A handy utility room is also available for storing boots, outdoor gear and laundry. Seven inviting bedrooms are spread across three floors.

On the ground floor, you’ll find a king-size room with a cloakroom next door.

The first floor hosts two further king-size rooms, a double and a twin, all styled with traditional touches and served by a sleek shower room and a bathroom featuring a roll-top bath.

The second floor completes the sleeping arrangements with a double and a single room, each offering elevated views across Whitehaven.

A further bathroom adds convenience for larger groups. Whitehaven itself is rich in history, with attractions such as The Rum Story, The Beacon Museum and Haig Mining Museum, alongside shops, pubs and eateries.

Nearby St Bees boasts a beautiful beach, the ruins of a 12th-century priory and scenic coastal trails overlooking the heather-clad hills of the Lake District.

Further afield, explore Seaton, Cockermouth and Loweswater, before venturing into the heart of the Lakes for rolling hills and tranquil waters. Wherever your adventures take you, 8 Corkickle offers the perfect base for discovering Cumbria.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £750.

About the location

WHITEHAVEN

St Bees 2.6 miles; Ennerdale 11 miles; Loweswater 16 miles; Wasdale 19 miles; Keswick 21 miles; Bowness-on-Windermere 49.8 miles.

The West Cumbrian town of Whitehaven is situated on the coast between the sparkling sea and the Lakeland Fells. It was one of the first ‘planned’ towns in England and today can boast almost 250 Listed Georgian buildings and some beautiful parks and gardens. Today the town’s harbour is a designated conservation area and visitors can learn about the town’s history at the excellent Beacon Heritage Centre. The surrounding coastline has much to offer, not least its old smugglers villages, such as Ravenglass, and the red sandstone cliffs of pretty St Bees - now the start of Wainwright’s famous “Coast to Coast” Walk. Meanwhile inland you can enjoy the tranquillity of the Western lakes: Ennerdale, Loweswater, Crummock, Buttermere and Wastwater. Ennerdale is perhaps the most peaceful of all the lakes, with no public roads running along its National Trust owned shoreline.
