Harbour Cottage

This part of Cumberland draws visitors for its coastal setting and proximity to the Lake District, yet remains quieter than busier resorts. A pub sits within a mile, and a sandy beach is three miles away. Harbour Cottage stands on the riverside with views across the water and harbour, offering both seclusion and easy access to local activities—water sports, fishing, golf and riding all feature nearby, along with walks that work at any pace.

The cottage has two bedrooms: one with a double bed, one with two singles, sharing a bathroom with bath and shower. Downstairs, a living and dining room opens onto a balcony furnished for sitting out, with stairs leading down to the riverside. The kitchen is equipped for cooking from scratch, and there is a tumble dryer for practicality. Electricity and heating are included, as are bed linen and towels. Private parking for one car sits on site, with additional parking nearby. The property is yours alone for the duration of your stay. Note that the balcony balustrades stand one metre high, stairs are steep and spiral in places, and the property does not permit smoking.

One pet stays free, making this a genuine option for those travelling with an animal. The combination of river views, village quiet, and range of activities within striking distance suits families, couples and small groups seeking a base for both rest and exploration.
