The small country village of Great Clifton is in the borough of Allerdale, just five miles from Cockermouth on the western fringes of the Lake District National Park. Great Clifton has a thriving community centred round the village pub, with the area largely undiscovered and unspoilt. The countryside offers dramatic panoramic views across this constantly changing landscape to the Loweswater valley and mountains beyond, including the imposing Melbreak. The nearby rugged coastline of the Solway Firth is within a short drive and the dramatic coastal route south to Ravenglass and beyond is one of the more scenic and peaceful journeys in the UK. The nearby market town of Cockermouth is famous as the birthplace of both William Wordsworth and Fletcher Christian (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame) with Wordsworth's Georgian family home, on the main street, now a popular visitor attraction, owned by the National Trust. Cockermouth boasts a variety of shops, pubs and places to eat, with the area renowned for the beautiful scenery and superb walking in the northern lakes around Bassenthwaite Lake, Ennerdale Water and Derwent Water.

Lovely size property, felt at home there. Very comfy beds.
Mrs Dean, Camberley, March 2012
We had a great holiday over the new year. We especially liked the open plan living area and also the games room for the kids. With 3 families and 7 children the space was ideal. Well recommended!
Mrs Murphy, Wallasey, December 2011
This was one of the best short breaks we have ever had. It was my husbands 60th birthday and all the family came. There was space and privacy for everyone. The owners were fantastic. Even though they live next door they never intruded. Would definitely recommend.
Mrs Hooper, Leicester, November 2011
The property was fantastic, the open plan living upstairs was great.
