Beeswax Cottage

Beeswax Cottage is a traditional stone end-terrace in the heart of Dalton-in-Furness, a town tucked into a narrow valley between Morecambe Bay and the Lake District hills. The building carries real character, with an open-plan ground floor that serves as the main living space—50-inch Smart TV, wood-effect electric fire, dining area and a kitchen equipped for proper cooking. Upstairs, two king-size bedrooms and a bathroom with shower over the tub complete the layout.

The cottage suits couples or small families wanting to explore the area without being hemmed in by a city. The Brown Cow sits less than a mile away, and a free car park is metres from the door. A patio garden with furniture and barbecue gives you outdoor space. One pet is welcome. Essentials like heating, linen, towels and Wi-Fi are included; you'll find a shop half a mile off, and a beach three miles south. The South Lakes Wild Animal Park, Haverthwaite Steam Railway and Ulverston—birthplace of Stan Laurel—are all within a short drive, while the Duddon Estuary and Grizedale Forest lie to the north.
