Gather together your family, friends and four-pawed pals for an adventure in the Lake District, perfectly placed between the coast and the countryside so that you can make the most of this wonderful destination. Filled with quirky features and social spaces for every occasion, there’s something to please every age group in this spacious property. Less than a mile away you’ll find Duddon Estuary and Haverigg Beach, an idyllic location for a family day out to watch the world go by.

You’ll feel instantly at home upon stepping into this property, with the snug being the first lovely room you’ll come across. Here you’ll find a charming wood burner and sumptuous seating, as well as access to a second cosy living space ensuring space for the whole family to spread out. The conservatory is a great space for everyone to gather together, with further soft seating, as well as a dining table for celebratory meals. When it’s time to cooking, the kitchen seamlessly blends the old with the new in a bold style with contrasting tones of wood and black. Completing the ground floor is a downstairs shower room. The living room can be found on the first floor to maximise your enjoyment of the views out of the windows, with plenty of comfortable seating, a grand piano and a Smart TV which is sure to keep the whole family entertained. All of the bedrooms are accessed via two staircases, starting with the master which is furnished with a king-size bed and boasts additional privacy with the use of an en-suite shower room. In addition, there are a further three double beds, all neutrally decorated each with pretty features characterising the room. One of the double bedrooms also boasts its own en-suite shower room. The final bedroom is a country-style king-size bedroom which is located near the family shower room. When the sun is shining, the garden is a great place for get togethers, offering a lawn for pups to play on, a patio for al fresco dining and gorgeous far-reaching views which are particularly lovely at sunset.

Take a trip down the coast to Sandscale Haws National Nature Reserve where your canine can leave pawprints in the sand whilst you soak up the sea breeze and serene views. Just 9 miles inland, you’ll find the Lake District National Park where adventures for those on four legs are plentiful, from the calm waters of Coniston (14 miles) to the mighty heights of Scafell Pike (24 miles) ensuring a perfect balance between fun challenges and spaces to relax.

Fantastic accommodation! So many rooms to relax in - my favourite was the lovely sitting room upstairs with a grand piano, sofas and doors to a patio space with views of the sea past the local town. Very useful Arga in the kitchen and plenty of washrooms. Highly recommend for value-for-money minded travellers aiming to spend time in southern parts Read moreof the Lake District Hide

This is a fantastic cottage for large groups. It was incredibly well equipped and beautifully presented (possibly the cleanest holiday let I've ever stayed in).

5 star! Stunning house, most well equipped cottage I've ever stayed in. Luxury but homely vibe. Extremely high quality. The photos don't do it justice. Beautiful views. Short drive/walk down to the beach.

Wonderful location with fabulous views of sunsets over the estuary. Spacious and we'll supplied with books, games and dvds. As a family we enjoyed proximity to all the attractions of the coast and the Lake District with very little traffic in mid August. As a family ageing from 5 to 75 we had a good time exploring the local area. Highly recommendedRead more. Small problem with hot water addressed and solved the same day by helpful host Chris. Hide

A lovely long weekend at The Old Parsonage, Christine was great from start to finish and even helped us arrange a rented hot tub for the weekend! The property was extremely clean, well kept and had everything we needed (including an Aga which was a delight to cook with). The nearby petrol station and Co-op meant we were never short of food or drinkRead mores. Not to mention the epic views from the numerous reading spots throughout the property. Looking forward to booking again soon! Hide
