Bell Cottage is a lovely, comfortable traditional cottage that is perfect for a couple wanting to explore the northern Lakes. The property is dog-friendly (throws, treats, balls, and water bowl provided) and less than five minutes walk to all the pubs, restaurants, supermarkets, and independent shops of Cockermouth.
You are well located for the short drive to Keswick or the majestic western fells around Buttermere. The coast and great beaches are only 20 minutes away. If you are a cyclist, there is handy, secure storage at the property and plenty of quiet country lanes to explore, which lead to wonderful country pubs and gentle countryside. The open lounge is comfortably set up with a sofa and has a cute dining table for two. There is a great 50" smart TV for evening entertainment.
Upstairs to the spacious bedroom with dual aspect windows, views of the churchyard, a king-size bed, a built-in wardrobe, and plenty of drawer storage. The en-suite has an electric shower, toilet and basin.
We recommend this property for romantic getaways and walking holidays.
