Gaze out towards the Solway Coast from this apartment in Mockerkin near the Lake District. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom hideaway is 6 miles from the vibrant market town of Cockermouth and 2 miles from Loweswater. It is also well located for Crummock Water and Derwentwater. The first-floor holiday home has access to a shared courtyard garden for basking in the sunshine during the summer months.
Climb the exterior metal staircase up to the apartment and step inside to find bright accommodation with a homely feel. The heart of the property is the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can all recline in comfort and take in the views out over the rolling hills. Open the French doors on to the Juliet balcony in here to bring in a cool breeze on fine days. Enjoy a good film or your favourite programme on the Smart TV or make plans for the following day. Head over to the kitchen area to prepare tasty meals and hot drinks for your party or to open a bottle of wine during cosy evenings in. As eyelids begin to droop, make your way through to either of the double bedrooms to indulge in a good night’s sleep. There is a family bathroom at the apartment. Have breakfast out in the shared garden on warm mornings before setting forth on your next Lake District adventure.
Visit English poet William Wordsworth’s childhood home in Cockermouth. Ponder in the independent shops and dine out in a cafe or pub while you are here too. Strike out on a 2.5-mile walk to Holme Force Waterfall on the southern shores of Loweswater. Embark upon a 4-mile walk around the lake. Have a day in Keswick, 14 miles away, or take a cruise out on Derwentwater from Portinscale, 13.5 miles from the apartment.
