“The garden was particularly ...”

The garden was particularly stunning and we enjoyed sitting out in it. But the whole property was fantastic and really did make you feel as though you were living in a home rather than a holiday let. Furnishings were comfortable, clean and ample for a larger party than we had (4 adults). All round a fantastic break. The owner was most helpful with any questions we had.

“An excellent find!”

We had a brilliant stay at Longcliffe. It was spacious enough for 3 families, with 2 children each!! The deco was slightly dated, but we weren't there for the deco. The house had 2 highchairs, 2 booster seats and 2 cots... The kitchen was very well equipped, the garden beautiful and not over looked, the house backs onto fields. There is delightful play area opposite the pub/restaurant (about 20 minute walk, child pace!) Also, about 5-10 minute drive away there is a big town (Egremont), which has takeaways, post office, large co op and many other shops. We had lovely trips to the beach, which again was just a short drive away. We had such a wonderful time!

“Lovely well equipped cottage in a very quite colder sack.”

This is truly a very well looked after and very well equipped cottage situated at the end of a quite colder sack. There is a driveway which has enough room to take 3 cars. There is a beautiful well maintained secured garden at the rear of the cottage which is ideal if you are taking young children or pets on holiday with you. The inside & outside of this cottage is well maintained and most important of all it is very clean throughout which is a credit to the owner. There was a welcome pack for us on arrival which included too many items to list but here is just a few, Bread,milk,butter,jam,bottle of wine,biscuits,tea,coffee,sugar,shower gel,shampoo,toilet rolls,cleaning products and many more items. I have to say that our stay here was a great experience and we will be returning again next year. A big thank you to the owner for making our stay here very enjoyable.

“Welcomeing, Well Equipped, Peaceful & Central to all areas.”

We had a problem with the washing machine on the first day of visit. By the second day it was fixed. That was excellent service I would say. The house had ample room for Grand Parents,Daughter and Son-in-law plus four grand children. The house was well equipped although the furniture and decor was a bit dated it was still clean and comfortable. The location was central to most places. The garden was great for keeping the kids happy and safe. It was peaceful and the shed storeage was ample for 8 bikes. We all had a good time and would go again.

“amazingly well equipped property”

propyfath erty was spotlessly clean, and must be the best equipped property we have ever rented. We had a relaxing break with family who had travelled from different parts of the country. Plenty of walking in the area, loads of information provided by the owner.

About the location

BECKERMET

Egremont 3 miles; St Bees 5 miles; Whitehaven 8.5 miles; Seascale 7 miles; Eskdale 11 miles.

The small village of Beckermet is located just one mile from the beautiful West Coast and sits amongst dramatic Lakeland countryside. Consisting of a scattering of cottages, farm dwellings, modern homes and two traditional English pubs serving local beers and good food, the village even boasts its own pop festival - the annual Beckfest held in August. The fells and lakes of the Western Lake District are close at hand. Relatively unknown to many Lakeland visitors, this area offers easy access to the towering peaks of Scafell Pike - England's highest peak, as well as Scarfell, Great Gable, Hard Knott, Harter Fell and Muncaster Fell: the lakes of Ennerdale, Loweswater, Crummock Water, Buttermere and Wastwater, England's deepest lake is perhaps the most awe-inspiring of all the lakes. The nearby stunning valleys of Eskdale, Wasdale and Dunnerdale provide breathtaking and ever-changing scenery to be enjoyed throughout the year. The nearby popular seaside resort of St Bees, with its historic Priory, has a long sandy beach, plus the rocky promontory of St Bees Head, the westernmost point of Cumbria and the start of Wainwright’s famous 'Coast to Coast walk'. An RSPB nature reserve on the headland is home to England's only colony of Black Guillemots. Other local attractions include Muncaster Castle with its World Hawk and Owl Centre; the Ravenglass to Eskdale miniature railway, one of the most beautiful train journeys imaginable, the famous Hardknot Pass with its Roman Fort, and the Georgian town of Whitehaven with its picturesque harbour. This stunning location will have visitors returning time and time again.
