Cockermouth 4.3 miles.

Return from an action-packed day exploring the fells to this homely abode, kicking off your muddy boots before unwinding on the sumptuous sofas that decorate the living/dining room, and enjoying the heat from the log effect electric fire. Cross on over to the dining table and delight in a delicious home-cooked meal, lovingly prepared by the chef of the group in the beautiful oak kitchen hosting a plethora of handy electrical appliances. A few steps away, three attractive bedrooms adorned with pretty country-style furnishings and fresh white linens offer a wonderful place to lay your head to rest at the end of the evening, whilst a light and airy bathroom sits right across the way and can be found boasting a spacious bath tub and separate walk-in shower.
