About this property
1 bedroom accommodation in Kirkoswald, near Penrith
A well-presented holiday retreat for two situated in a peaceful location close to Penrith.. All on the Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: TV, Multi-Fuel Burner
Kitchen: Electric Cooker, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer
Bedroom: Kingsize (5ft) Bed Ensuite: Cubicle Shower, Toilet, Shower Seat. Oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and starter basket of fuel for multi-fuel burner included. Travel cot and highchair (available on request). Washing machine (available on request). Doggy extras. Enclosed garden with garden furniture. Bike store. Private parking. No smoking.. Peaceful location. This charming holiday cottage is attractively presented and offers an immaculate home from home. All at ground floor and adjoining the owner’s home, it has spectacular country views and a private small garden and patio area. The property is surrounded by good walking country and there is a network of footpaths from the doorstep. The picturesque, unspoilt village of Kirkoswald, with its cobbled market place, is a frequent winner of the best-kept village competition and is located in the beautiful Eden Valley, a tranquil part of Cumbria. The village church has a unique feature, a 19th-century bell tower perched on a hilltop 200 yards from the church itself. Situated between Carlisle and Penrith, there is easy access to Hadrian’s Wall, the Northern Pennines, the western fringe of the Yorkshire Dales, the Scottish Border and Northumberland. Access to the shore side of the lake, Ullswater, at Pooley Bridge is only a short drive away, with Keswick and Derwent Water, along with Lake Buttermere, being only a little further. The Cumbrian Cycle Route passes near the village and there is good fishing on the River Eden close by. Shop and pubs within ¾ mile.
Suitable for up to 2 pets
