About this property

This detached stone cottage is located on the water’s edge in the small village of Anthorn, a tranquil corner of the Solway coast overlooking Morecambe Bay. This beautifully presented Grade II listed cottage boasts many character features with beams, oak doors, stone floors and an exposed stone wall in the sitting area, making Sonya’s Cottage ideal for family or friends wishing to relax and enjoy time together in this peaceful undiscovered spot. The open plan living area has comfy seating and a bespoke kitchen with French doors that open onto a delightful patio overlooking the estuary, where you can sit and watch the tide ebb and flow. With all of the accommodation on the ground floor, the two lovely bedrooms also have wonderful open views. Outside, the terrace overlooks the lawn and has open views across this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. At the rear is a luxurious hot tub, an ideal way to finish off the day after touring this beautiful region. Walks can be taken from the door to follow the estuary coast line, one of which follows a Roman wall along the coast. The cottage is next to an RSPB bird sanctuary, making it ideal for bird and nature enthusiasts with an abundance of wildlife in the surrounding area including deer, foxes and badgers. Nearby is the village of Abbeytown with the ancient Cistercian Holmcultram Abbey, whilst Hadrian’s Wall is also close by. As well as the glorious coast, the Northern Lakes are also within reach and with charming Cumbrian towns such as Keswick and Cockermouth also nearby, this cottage is an ideal base to enjoy year round.

Anthorn is a remote village on the north bank of the Solway Firth. Nearby Wigton is a traditional Cumbrian market town which holds a market each Friday.
