The property

Rich in character and steeped in history, High Dyke Cottage near Cockermouth in Cumbria is a beautifully preserved, seventeenth-century retreat.

Brimming with original features including exposed beams, wood panelling, traditional fireplaces and classic windows, this exceptional cottage offers a truly atmospheric place to stay.

Step inside and you’ll feel instantly transported back in time as the charming interiors unfold.

The welcoming sitting room is warm and inviting, centred around an attractive woodburning stove that creates a real focal point.

The farmhouse-style kitchen is just as appealing, with its own stove adding to the homely feel.

This is a space you’ll naturally gravitate towards, where the designated chef can prepare hearty meals to be enjoyed around the rustic dining table during long, relaxed gatherings.

Outside, the enclosed garden provides a wonderful setting for everyone to come together.

Children and pets can play safely while adults unwind on the patio, perhaps lighting the fire pit as evening falls, gazing up at the stars and soaking up the peaceful Cumbrian atmosphere.

When night draws in, choose from two beautifully presented king-size bedrooms, while a family shower room completes the accommodation.

High Dyke Cottage is perfectly placed for exploring the surrounding area, with scenic walks and trails right from the doorstep and the magnificent Lake District close by.

Visit National Trust Wordsworth House and Gardens, marvel at the dramatic Lodore Falls, or enjoy day trips to nearby towns and villages such as Keswick, Cockermouth and Embleton.

For a restful escape in a stunning historic cottage, High Dyke Cottage is hard to beat.

Garage space for storing bikes and other equipment . There is an undercover outdoor area solely for the cottage use with fire pit

About the location

COCKERMOUTH

Bassenthwaite Lake 7 miles; Keswick 13 miles.

The small country market town of Cockermouth is situated in the quiet north-western part of the Lake District, a largely undiscovered and unspoilt area, yet only 13 miles from Keswick. The town is famous as the birthplace of both William Wordsworth and Fletcher Christian (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame) and Wordsworth’s Georgian family home, on the main street, is now a popular visitor attraction, owned by the National Trust. Cockermouth offers a good variety of shops, pubs and places to eat, but (of course) the main attraction of the area is the beautiful scenery and excellent walking in the northern lakes – Bassenthwaite Lake, Ennerdale Water and Derwent Water.

  • Winter
