Broughton Moor Rental

Plan a peaceful Cumbrian getaway with family or friends at this modern two-bed bungalow. It's in a peaceful, rural spot 2 miles inland from the Solway Coast and 5.5 from Cockermouth, a vibrant market town known for local breweries where you can sample home-grown ales. You'll also be just 6.5 miles from the edge of the Lake District National Park, opening up excellent opportunities for outdoorsy types, including hiking, cycling and water sports.

This inviting single-storey home is decorated in a clean and simple style, with neutral colours and wooden accents throughout. In the modern kitchen/diner, whip up holiday meals and sit down to enjoy them with a glass of wine or two (it is holiday time, after all!). The stylish lounge is wonderful for relaxing after action-packed days out, with its Smart TV and patio doors leading out to the garden. The home includes a cosy double bedroom with an en-suite for privacy, along with a twin room that's great for children. You can make the most of good weather in the enclosed garden, which has a furnished patio area, a good-sized lawn and panoramic views of the rolling countryside.

Nearby, the coastal town of Maryport (2.5 miles) has a lovely marina and a long sand and shingle beach, along with an aquarium and Roman museum to keep you busy. Golf fans will find an exceptionally scenic course 4 miles away. The Solway Coast is a National Landscape - it's a true joy to follow the seafront with the dogs trotting on up ahead. Or, to see the sights on two wheels, cycle the 5-mile trail from Maryport to Allonby. The mountain bike trails of Whinlatter Forest are also just 11 miles away.
