No smoking.. The Stables, a delightful two-bedroom cottage nestled between the charming hamlets of Mawbray and Beckfoot, near Silloth, Cumberland. Situated just 200 meters from the sandy shores of the Solway Firth, this picturesque retreat lies in a designated ’Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ with a ’Site of Special Scientific Interest’ just over the road for the flora and fauna contained therein.
Step inside this welcoming cottage, and you’ll find yourself in an inviting open plan living space complete with a well-equipped kitchen. On sunny days, make the most of the large rear garden for al fresco dining. Afterwards, unwind on the plush sofas in the sitting room or head upstairs to the snug, where you’ll find a selection of books and leaflets in the local area. The ground floor also features a convenient shower room, ideal for freshening up after a day of adventures. Just a short stroll away, you’ll find the community pub, serving up traditional pub classics and real ales. For more dining options, the nearby village of Allonby, only two miles away, boasts two hotels with restaurants and two charming cafés.
History enthusiasts will love a visit to the historic town of Maryport, just 8 miles to the South of The Stables. Explore the town’s rich maritime heritage at the Maritime Museum or delve into the area’s past at the Roman Museum. Treat the kids to a visit to the large aquarium or a trip to the Go Karting stadium. Silloth, 5 miles to the North offers opportunities for outdoor adventures, including walking, cycling, and fishing. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy a round at the internationally acclaimed Silloth on Solway Golf Course.
For a day trip, either drive into the nearby stunning Lake District with all the attractions it has to offer or go to Carlisle, where the castle and museum both illustrate the history about the Border Wars, visit the magnificent cathedral, or enjoy a day in the shops. For the more energetic holiday makers go further afield and take a walk along the famous Hadrian’s wall.
