Upstairs, a thoughtfully designed seating area offers breathtaking views across the Solway Firth to the majestic Scottish fells, a perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or a glass of wine as the sun sets. The accommodation includes three beautifully furnished bedrooms, a luxurious main double with a kingsized bed and en-suite shower room, a second double bedroom, and a twin room, all designed for a restful night’s sleep. A stylish family bathroom features a charming cast iron claw-foot bath, perfect for a long soak after a day of exploring. Additionally, a convenient downstairs separate toilet ensures maximum comfort for guests. Step outside into your private garden, accessible from the dining room, where you’ll find outdoor furniture for al fresco dining or simply soaking up the fresh Cumbrian air. The peaceful courtyard setting makes this an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
