Large (5 bed house) within 2 miles of the English Lake District National Park and only five miles to the coast. 8 miles to Keswick!! 40 minutes to Silloth with a great links golf course (in all the best course books). Cockermouth (a gem town) is 5 miles away as is Workington with a newly redeveloped town centre. The house is in a very quiet village with a very good village pub within 5 minutes walk. We love it here. The garden is big with plenty of seating to picnic when the weather is good. The house is centrally heated and has two living rooms one with a gas fire and the other with a multi fuel stove and there is a sofa bed in one so the house could sleep 12 if required (and has done!!). The bed rooms are big as are the the bathroom and the shower room. There is a downstairs toilet room. Thge kitchen has a duel fuel range stove and a dining area - there is a large seperate dining room. I love it and so would you!
Very quiet and friendly - good local English pub - bus service although we always use the car.
I am an early retired Headteacher. Valerie is still working. I play golf as much as I can and I love cooking. We ski every year at least once - usually Val Thorens. Our three girls are now grown up with two married and one at University. We are now grandparents to two grandchildren. Val does Yoga in the village, dancing in the next village and gym in Cockermouth. I have great pride in the house and the garden - we have just built a big greenhouse which I will start stocking up in the next few weeks. Neighbours are lovely.
