Set in the coastal village of Seascale, this stylish cottage pairs dramatic shorelines with easy access to the Lake District National Park. It's an excellent base for friends or family exploring both coast and mountains, with the striking Cumbria Coastal Way on the doorstep and long-distance walking routes opening up shifting sea views.
Inside, the cottage is finished in a fresh, polished style that makes settling in feel seamless. Entry is through the kitchen, a smart and well-equipped space suited to straightforward self-catering, whether you’re cooking filling evening suppers or lighter meals between outings. A breakfast bar provides an informal place for coffee or an unhurried start to the day. The living room forms the centre of the home, with cosy seating arranged for quiet evenings in front of the Smart TV or mapping out the next day's route across the fells and coastline. When night falls, two welcoming bedrooms await: a king-size room and a twin, both designed to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep after days spent outdoors. The family bathroom features both a full-size bath and a separate shower for extra convenience. Outside, the enclosed courtyard garden offers a protected place to enjoy the fresh air. There’s space for a dog to wander while meals are shared on the deck, from slow lunches to sunset suppers as the light softens. Private off-road parking is available for two cars.
A well-loved local walk leads 6 miles to Ravenglass, where the remains of a Roman bathhouse bring an intriguing historical element. From here, the heritage Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway travels inland through remarkable scenery, offering a memorable journey through the valleys. Nearby, Muncaster Castle is 8 miles away, while the waters of Wast Water lie 8.5 miles inland. For more ambitious days out, Scafell Pike – the highest peak in England – is just over 11 miles away.
