Perfect for any party of six, this high-end holiday pad sits in the heart of historic Carlisle. Part of a gorgeous Georgian townhouse, it boasts beautifully styled rooms spread across two storeys, and comes with the bonus of both a courtyard garden and private parking.
Original architectural details are blended with every modern must-have at this handsome mid-terraced home. An elegant hallway welcomes you inside; head to the back of the property and you’ll pass a handy shower room en route to the first of your social settings: a contemporary kitchen/diner. Complete with a central dining table and a feature fireplace, this room has all the essentials for hassle-free self-catering. Companionable together-time is the focus in the lounge, too, where double windows, high ceilings and an ornate fireplace complement the choice of soft seating and Smart TV. As sleep-time approaches, three bedrooms are on the first floor – two have a king-size bed, the third has twin beds, and all share use of a beautiful bathroom with both a walk-in shower and a free-standing bath. For a breath of fresh air, open the double doors from the kitchen/diner onto the rear courtyard – though compact, it is furnished for al fresco food and drinks.
An off-road parking space – and various car parks nearby – allow you to explore the vibrant city centre at your own pace. Bustling boutiques, inns and eateries are on your doorstep, while the castle, cathedral, and Tullie Museum are all within half a mile. Cyclists can join the National Cycle Route 7 as it passes through the city; if you’d prefer to explore the surrounding countryside and coastline by car, the Lake District, North Pennines, and the Solway Coast are all within 13 miles. As one of England’s northernmost cities, Carlisle is only 10 miles from the Scottish border so you can visit the famous Hadrian’s Wall too.
