    “I couldn’t think of anything bad to say about our stay if I tried!”

    We absolutely love staying at Piggery Cottage. It’s so cozy, clean, comfortable and peaceful. We had a drive to the Lake District, Scotland and Silloth-on-Solway. The cottage has everything you need, we received a lovely welcome pack on arrival with wine, crisps, biscuits and homemade cake. Lorna, Jim and Rupert (golden retriever), live next door and are so lovely and kind, couldn’t wish for better hosts. Will definitely be returning

About the location

WIGTON

Carlisle 12 miles; Keswick 20 miles.

A traditional Cumbrian market town with a charter granted in 1262, which still holds a market each Friday in the covered market hall, along with an open air car boot sale. Wigton is a popular centre for shopping, pubs and restaurants, and also boasts a theatre, bowls, swimming, tennis and other sports. Lord Melvyn Bragg was a native of Wigton, and used the town (called Thurston in some of his writings) and the surrounding area as the setting for his novels including ‘A Time to Dance’. Located 18 miles from Penrith it is a good base for the attractions of the North Lakes, the cathedral city of Carlisle, 12 miles away, Keswick, just north Derwentwater and close to Lake Bassenthwaite, and the natural beauty of the West Cumbrian Coast. Hadrian’s Wall is within 25 miles, while the Scottish Borders, and Gretna Green, are within easy reach.

Please note: Pet charge of £10 per pet per stay.
