About this property

Carlisle 8 miles. This outstanding property is tucked away within the stable courtyard of the former High Head Castle, within Ivegill near Carlisle. This Grade II listed dwelling comes with a unique layout, offering three well-presented bedrooms on the ground floor, each boasting a bright interior design, ensuring that you wake up to an uplifting atmosphere. On this floor, you will also find a stylish family bathroom, where you can choose to indulge with a soak in the elegant bath tub before retiring for the evening. For those family nights in make your way up the staircase to the open-plan living room where the character of the property is truly highlighted. Look forward to unwinding on the sofa and rustling up an evening meal within the kitchen area with the stunning exposed beams and countryside views to admire. If you are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the group, venture up the spiral staircase to discover a secluded mezzanine snug room, where you can get lost within a book or enjoy a coffee in peace. If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic retreat venture into the city of Carlisle, which offers an abundance of amenities and attractions including Carlisle Castle, Carlisle Cathedral and the wonderful Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery. Alternatively, head to the Solway Coast AONB and discover luscious plains filled with an array of wildlife, stretching from Rockcliffe down to Maryport. You are in a fabulous location for exploring the whole of the Lake District National Park, including the fell village of Caldbeck hosting a network of walking trails for all abilities. Hesket New Market is also worth a visit for its own highly regarded microbrewery and pub, The Old Crown, serving the best beer in Cumbria. You can also explore the Scottish Borders, the beautiful Eden Valley and of course Hadrian's Wall, which marches from sea-to-sea ending at Bowness-on-Solway. Courtyard Cottage is perfect for enjoying a refreshing break with your loved ones.

Carlisle rests just 10 miles south of the Scottish Borders and is nicknamed the Border City. The county town of Cumbria is steeped with history with Carlisle Castle which is still relatively intact. You will also find the Settle to Carlisle railway, which runs through breathtaking scenery to the popular Yorkshire town. It is also close to seaside town of Silloth and Gretna Green.
