Step into William Wordsworth country for a truly romantic retreat, staying as a couple in the picturesque town of Cockermouth. Just a stone's throw from the town centre (0.5 miles) and the poet's childhood home (300 metres), this beautifully placed holiday apartment invites you to leave the car behind and explore on foot. Beyond town, the wider Cumbrian countryside awaits, with the western edge of the Lake District National Park less than 5 miles away. Whatever draws you to this enchanting area, you'll find exceptional comfort waiting each evening in this ground-floor escape for two guests and one dog.
Chic and contemporary, the single-storey apartment has been thoughtfully styled throughout. The open-plan living space neatly combines a lounge, kitchen and dining area, with the table set by a sunny window - the perfect spot to enjoy breakfast or a leisurely dinner. A Smart TV offers evening entertainment, and a handsome king-size bedroom with en-suite provides a restful retreat at the end of the day. Patio doors open directly into the enclosed, furnished garden, an inviting space for morning coffee. Private parking for two cars adds to the convenience.
Discover Cockermouth on foot, exploring the independent shops and the pretty River Derwent scenery that make this town so well-loved by both locals and visitors. When it's time to venture further, head into the Lake District to discover Bassenthwaite Lake (6 miles), Dodd Wood (10 miles) and fells including Grisedale Pike (11.5 miles) and Skiddaw (13 miles). The lively market town of Keswick is also well worth a visit, just 12.5 miles away, with the mighty Derwentwater offering water sports, lakeside walks and scenic cycle routes along its perimeter.
