However, being so close to the action of Cockermouth, the last thing you’ll be thinking about is cooking and clearing up! Turn right out of the property and just 100 yards you are on Main Street, the centre of this beautiful Cumbrian town. Cockermouth is very popular with tourists and locals offering an abundance of independent speciality shops, quaint restaurants and coffee houses as well as a great selection of pubs and even a couple of microbreweries. Walk through the town and you can visit the birthplace of the famous writer William Wordsworth, 350 yards, and then cross the river where you can feed the ducks and let the kids play in the memorial gardens. Cycle hire is available nearby, and you can swim at the local leisure pool. Home to the famous Jenning’s Brewery, nestled beneath the castle walls, this picturesque, thriving market town sits at the junction of the River Cocker and the River Derwent on its journey to the sea. Being right on the border of the Lake District National Park, you can choose between the rugged scenery of lakes and mountains or the sandy beaches of the West Cumbrian coastline - you really have got the best of both worlds. Your nearest lake is Bassenthwaite which sits at the foot of the Skiddaw range, offering fantastic walks and views across the northern fells. Bassenthwaite is also home to The Lakes Distillery offering tasting tours only 5 miles away, and the Lake District Wildlife Park which is a great day out with the family only 6 miles away. The popular town of Keswick is 14 miles away and can be reach by car in about 20 minutes. For walkers and cycling enthusiasts you’ll love Whinlatter Forest Park or continue down the valley to Buttermere for stunning panoramic scenery.
