About this property

Finest Retreats | North Lodge

North Lodge is a stunning, fully refurbished historic property, nestled on the edge of Cockermouth in beautiful Cumbria.

Welcoming up to six guests across three king-size bedrooms, the interiors are elegantly styled using reclaimed materials for a decadent boutique finish.
Relax and enjoy your holiday in beautiful surroundings, both inside and out, for the ultimate luxury escape.

As you enter in through the front porch, there is plenty of space for boots and outerwear. A classically tiled entrance hall takes you through to a gloriously welcoming living room, offering warm earthy tones and generous plush sofas to sink into. This space is perfect for spending relaxed evenings with a good book or enjoying board games with family.
There is also an additional living area or morning room, with double aspect windows making for a wonderfully light space. Here there is another sofa, a casual table to seat two looking out over the gardens, and a period fireplace with traditional wood-burning stove and plenty of logs to get you started.

The kitchen is traditionally stylish with a luxury heritage feel, having a modern range oven with gas burners, belfast sink with swan-neck mixer tap, and charming reclaimed tiles to complement the wooden cabinetry. It is very well-equipped, having everything necessary to cater to any culinary occasion. There is also a dishwasher, washing machine, and a Nespresso coffee machine for the perfect morning blend.

Past the kitchen, there is a fine conservatory with the main dining table to seat six. A splendid space to eat, it has a high ceiling, skylights, pared back neutral décor ,and patio doors out to the gardens.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are all beautifully dressed, each with their own style and all with ample space and storage. The master bedroom offers a king-size bed, and en-suite shower room in a traditional style. The second and third bedrooms are also king-size, although the beds can be reconfigured to create twin rooms if desired. The main family bathroom is also upstairs, having a bath with shower over, wash basin and close-coupled WC. On the ground floor, there is also the additional benefit of having an additional shower room for convenience.

Outside, there is an extensive patio area and garden, complete with outdoor furniture and ample seating, ideal for dining al fresco after a long day of exploring the local area. The garden is enclosed with stock fencing, and there reaching views to the fields beyond, making it a beautiful setting in which to spend your time.

There is plenty to do in the immediate local area, and being on the edge of the Lake District, it is renowned for excellent walking, hiking and cycling. Cockermouth Golf Club is also very close by. There are a plethora of beautiful villages, attractions and welcoming pubs within the local area, meaning you will be spoilt for choice as to where to go first!

The coastline is also within easy reach, being roughly a 15 minute drive over to Maryport with its sands, marina and Maritime Museum.

Beautiful home and property
Beautiful home, perfectly located, 10 minute walk to town and very quiet street. Perfect to go to the pub for a few and not worry about driving home. The house is great. Everything was supplied. Downstairs shower is amazing! All in all a great place to stay with a family. Walkway from the driveway to the front door is very dark at night so beware if there are elderly people staying. (Smartphone flashlight very handy in this case. ) Backyard is a great place to park oneself on a sunny day. Just love the grouse roaming around everywhere. I highly recommend !

Beautiful property
North Lodge is a lovely property and very stylishly decorated. The spacious accommodation is the sort of place where you immediately feel happy and at home. The room with the wood burner is cosy and there is a record player (and choice of records) which was a lovely addition to this special place. The kitchen was well equipped and conservatory lovely for family meals. Unfortunately the weather wasn't warm enough to sit outside but it looked super! The house is on a road which came as a little bit of a surprise but as it's on the edge of town, there is very little traffic noise. We highly recommend North Lodge.

Nice house, but safety issues need to be addressed
This is a lovely property and in a nice location and we generally enjoyed staying there. However, as I mentioned in a call with the property managers, there are some safety issues that must be addressed. There is a dangerous step leading from the first bedroom to the bathroom and, because of this, my wife fell in the night and broke her arm. There should be some safety tape or some type of warning to show the step clearly. We noticed the dangerous step when we moved in, but still had an accident. There also should be a night light or some sort of better illumination. Also, the bathtub in that bathroom has very steep sides, a slippery base and no hand rails. There are serious problems which must be addressed, especially since many people using this house will be retirees. One other problem is that we couldn't get the stove top burners to light even though the oven worked. We called about this and got no assistance from management. Again, it is a very nice old house, but these concerns need to be addressed before someone else is injured or greatly inconvenienced as we were.

Family Christmas holiday
We traveled to the UK from Australia & decided to have Christmas is The Lake District region. North Lodge in Cockermouth was the perfect house for our family group of 5. The kitchen was excellent and well equipped with everything we needed to cook Christmas lunch . It was very warm & cosy too .

Lovely comfortable house in great location There were mice living in the house which was a bit of a shock to see running around and leaving droppings.They had obviously been there for some time as someone had blocked a hole up with a plastic bag. Letting agent didn't get back to me after reporting this and offered no compensation.
