A tapestry of coloured cottages in a charming quiet lane with many houses dating back to the 1700s, is where you will find this cosy, yet stylish terraced cottage, nestled in Cockermouth in the Western Lake District. This pink cottage is a wonderful retreat for friends, a couple or a small family, and your four-legged friend, it perfectly marries a mix of comfort and period charm. Just a mooch away is the town and its independent shops, restaurants and cafes where there is plenty to delight and entertain all the family.

Behind the front door you will find a cottage which is brimming with country style and a gentle, warm welcome. The comfy sofas settled in front of a crackling wood-burner invite guests to sink into relaxation of an evening at any time of year. Gather together in the kitchen/diner for simple yet delightful meals, sip a home-made cocktail or enjoy the simplicity of a well-made cup of tea. From the contemporary and well-equipped kitchen step up into to the charming, whitewashed courtyard where the large table and benches sit aside the decorative potted plants. It's the perfect place to relax in the fresh air and enjoy mornings plotting adventures with a generous breakfast laid out in front of you. And for a different view you could climb the steps to the upper terrace with its bisto table and chairs.

Come bed time, two timeless bedrooms await you at the top of the open staircase, one double and one king-size, promising a well-earned slumber in crisp sheets and cosy duvets. The family bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower, so you can either start the day refreshed or enjoy a hot bubble bath with a good book in the evening. 11 Cocker Lane is the place to unwind and enjoy days exploring the traditional towns and pretty villages of the Lake District National Park.

Located on the north western edge of the Lake District National Park means you get the best of both worlds; choose between the mountainous scenery of The Lakes or the sandy beaches of the west Cumbrian coastline. Cockermouth itself has a vibrant centre with an abundance of pubs serving great food and cask ales, plenty of restaurants and cafes and delightful independent shops for you to take a leisurely stroll around.

The famous Jennings Brewery sits proudly by the river; offering regular tours - and tastings! - and a great shop, it's a must for any real ale fans. There is a great choice of walking in the area, from sedate ambles to more challenging fell walking, so dust off those boots. For a touch of culture, visit the childhood home of William Wordsworth, now a National Trust site, where peaceful gardens offer a lovely escape. The north lakes of Bassenthwaite, Buttermere, Crummock and Loweswater are all within seven miles. Keswick is a great place for a day out, cruise around Derwent Water on a launch or walk along the shore path. Those who want a more energetic pastime can walk the fells of Latrigg, Cat Bells and Walla Crag.

The Solway Coast is very picturesque and has a long maritime history to explore. Families will enjoy the Lake District Wildlife Park or Go Ape at Whinlatter Forest. There is so much to do for all the family, just take your pick.
