  • "Beautiful cottage with everything you could possibly need."

    Didn’t use the lounge or dining room spent the entire week in the kitchen conservatory. Nice and cosy so didn’t use the heating. The bed was very firm. Lisa was very helpful and there was a lovely welcome hamper.

    Thank you so glad you enjoyed your stay hope to see you soon Lisa&David Property Owner

  • "Beautiful cottage in a great location for exploring the Lake District."

    I got to sit with a coffee each morning watching the river flow by with herons, swifts, ducks and more, this was the perfect start to each day. The cottage is so cosy and well equipped. We stayed with our children (13yr boy, 9yr twin girls) and they loved it. We'll definitely look to come back again.

    Thank you Jasmine glad you enjoyed it Lisa & Dave Property Owner

  • "Gorgeous quaint cottage, very well equipped and beautifully furnished."

    The kitchen/conservatory is so relaxing no matter what the weather is like outside. The river runs past the bottom of the garden, lovely to see the ducks. Great base to explore this part of the Lake District.

    Thank you glad you had a lovely time Lisa & Dave Property Owner

  • "Thank you for a wonderful stay in your quaint cottage."

    The cottage is well equipped, we never used the lounge at all as the conservatory was sunny and relaxing. there was a problem with the microwave which was replaced promptly the next morning. The views of the river are lovely we were entertained by the ducks, swallows and swifts skimming the water. Lovely garden to relax in and soak up the sun once we returned from out travels. Keswick was visited on market day, lovely little streets. Pooley bridge worth a visit. Appleby is a must great butchers and fruit shops away from the big retailers. we had a lovely lunch at Threlkeld village hall.

  • "Thank you for a wonderful stay in the beautiful lakes."

    The house is stunning and the perfect location for some amazing hikes. The view over Newlands Valley from Dale Head a short walk from Honister slate mine is definitely worth the hike. Pooley Bridge is great for food.

The property

Beckside Cottage is a charming holiday retreat situated on the edge of Penrith, Cumbria.

With a designated parking space and a warm welcome for your furry-friend, this delightful abode is perfect for families or friends seeking an relaxing getaway in this picturesque region.

Heading inside, you'll be welcomed by the open-plan living space, where the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas blend seamlessly together.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all the essentials for preparing delicious meals, which can be savoured at the dining table, offering plenty of space for everyone.

The sitting area, complete with a TV and an electric fire, provides a perfect spot to relax after a day spent exploring Penrith.

Outside, you'll discover a private lawned garden, an ideal place to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening drink, while taking in the peaceful surroundings of this delightful cottage.

When it's time to retire for the night, find two beautifully presented bedrooms waiting for you.

The first is a double room, boasting an en-suite with an elegant roll-top bath, perfect for a relaxing soak.

The second is a spacious family room, featuring a double and a single bed, as well as an en-suite with a walk-in shower, offering a refreshing space to prepare for the day ahead.

Make sure to explore the wealth of local attractions, starting with the dramatic ruins of Lowther Castle & Gardens, profiling 900 years of history.

Don't miss Brougham Castle, an impressive medieval fortress sitting stoically on the banks of the River Eamont.

Stroll through the landscaped beauty of Castle Park, relax with a picnic, or let the children loose on the playground.

For the history enthusiasts, a visit to King Arthur's Round Table, a prehistoric earthwork henge in the heart of the town, is a must.

Nearby, visit the equally mystifying Mayburgh Henge, built of river pebbles and curious in its solitary standing stone.

For an invigorating walk, make your way to Penrith Beacon, a woodland nature reserve boasting sweeping views over the Eden Valley.

Whatever your holiday preference, Beckside Cottage is the perfect base to return to, promising a pleasant and memorable stay.

Please supervise young children and your pet in the garden due to direct river access.

PENRITH

Keswick 17 miles; Carlisle 20 miles.

The bustling market town of Penrith, once the capital of Cumbria, enjoys a central position between the Lake District, the Westmoorland Dales and North Pennines and is ideally placed for taking in all that the region has to offer. Renowned for its wealth of specialist shops, the sandstone buildings of Penrith hide intriguing yards, lanes and alleyways, with a myriad of attractive cottages, gardens and little shops. With a wide choice of excellent pubs, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, Penrith also offers a museum, and Millennium Trails round the historic city streets. Within easy reach of the town is Rheged – an innovative visitor centre with shops, restaurants, exhibitions and a giant cinema screen showing educational and informative films. Brougham Castle, Brougham Hall (The Windsor of the North), Lowther Castle and Gardens, Long Meg and her daughters (the 3rd largest stone circle in England) and the historic city of Carlisle are all a short drive away, as is the stunning scenery of both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
