This splendid, reverse-level cottage sits just metres from where the River Lazy meets the Irish Sea and offers fantastic views for couples or small families with two dogs to enjoy. The host village of Haverigg oozes Cumbrian charm with a dog-friendly, shingle beach just metres from the door and a good choice of fish and chip shops, as well as welcoming cafes. Just half a mile away is the Marina where you can try your hand at water sports or enjoy a tranquil visit to the RSPB Hodbarrow Nature Reserve. The famous Cumbria Way route passes half a mile away, offering breathtaking journeys towards the Lake District National Park (5 miles) where the popular destinations of Coniston Water, Hawkshead, and Ambleside all await within 25 miles.
As you enter through the front door of this reverse-level cottage, you'll find yourself in a charming entrance hall, perfect for kicking off walking boots and sandy shoes. The ground floor plays host to the first of two bedrooms, a welcoming twin room with river views and use of the nearby shower room with a walk-in shower and WC. Head upstairs to find the social heart of the cottage, the open-plan living space that combines a kitchen, diner and lounge. Gather in front of the Smart TV after days of Cumbrian adventure, relax in the soft seating here and start planning the next day’s outing. When stomachs start to rumble, walk over to the well-appointed kitchen. Find all you need here to cook up well-deserved feasts for your loved ones and gather at the dining space to enjoy the chef’s work. Afterwards, enjoy an evening tipple on the private balcony as you soak up the river and ocean views. Finally, on the second floor, find the master double bedroom with views across the water and its own en-suite bathroom.
Outside, make full use of the private balcony with its sea views, and if you fancy stretching your legs, step out the front door and straight on to the banks of the River Lazy. Private parking for one car is also available at the rear of the cottage.
