    “Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage especially the comfy beds.”

    If there was any comment about the cottage it would be that i think there should be a small handrail at the bottom of the stairs and a mat in the bath speaking for myself that is as we are in our seventies. there is everything in the cottage you may need,

The Cumbria Coastal Walk and Allerdale Ramble pass through the village. Links golf is available at Maryport Golf Course and the world renowned Silloth Golf course. A short trip will take you to the historic city of Carlisle, nip over the border to Gretna Green, experience the 2000-year legacy of Hadrian’s Wall or enjoy fun packed days out exploring the beautiful Western Lakes and fells where there is a wealth of things to see and do, including Hadrian's Cycleway where you can take in the stunning views on your journey.
