About this property
This large terraced cottage rests within the Cumbrian town of Millom, with plenty of walking, cycling and coastal adventure nearby. Just 1.5miles from the golden shingle sand of Haverigg Beach. It is ideal for families and friends alike, offering a quality feel throughout. Enter into the long hallway which stretches the full length of the cottage down to the modern kitchen at the rear. To the right is the bright and airy sitting room, where you can get cosy by the gas fire and exchange stories of the day you've just had, over a hot cup of tea. Why not prepare a tasty meal in the elegantly modern kitchen and gather in the dining room next door for those memorable evenings together. The spacious family bathroom rests at the top of the staircase with a roll top bath taking centre stage in the middle of the room, ideal for an indulgent soak on return from a day at the beach. There are two double bedrooms to retire to after an evening of fun and games downstairs. The layout of the second level mirrors the floor below, with a large bathroom playing host to another bath and separate corner shower, so there's plenty of areas for everyone to get ready for the day ahead. Another two double rooms follow, with plenty of light oozing in through the windows, bundles of character and views over the front across the green. Close by are all the amenities of Millom town centre, with local shops, pubs and eateries, as well as the remains of its old castle. Within walking distance there is Haverigg, a small coastal village with a beautiful Blue Flag beach. A great place to see some spectacular sunsets. Why not walk along the old sea wall and pass the remains of disused iron mine, which has been filled with water to create a huge lagoon. Hodbarrow nature reserve is home to a great array of wildlife. This is a great place for avid bird watchers as a wide range of birds call this lagoon their home. You also have the South Lakes Safari Zoo a short drive away. This is a splendid getaway for you and your loved ones to escape to. NOTE: This property can be booked in conjunction with Duddon View Cottage (1120634) making a sleeping capacity of 12

Love how spacious this is and the fact it has 4 big bedrooms and 2 bathrooms plus a toilet. Nice little welcome touch with teas / coffee / wine (the wine always goes the extra touch!). Overall great stay here. Only thing to be improved is the WiFi is pretty shocking and tv wasnât working well (not sure if this was to do with the internet?) but we went on a very rainy weekend and wanted to watch tv which we couldnât.

Very well done out. Very clean. 3 floors may not have been such a good idea at our age! Lovely big bedrooms and bathrooms. Well kitted out kitchen and utility room. There were a few little things. The bin outside had not been emptied, the middle bathroom light didn't work, someone had broken the back gate wheel, kettle sometimes neede a little wiggle to work. Utility room toilet had a loose seat. There is a little step between the kitchen and passage that could do with a yellow tape or something. We all tripped up it. I went flying full length. If you're looking for scenic views and a pretty village this isn't the one for you. But if you're looking for a lovely house as a good base, it is. Not far from lots of scenery and interesting places.
