Cockermouth, Cumbria

Located in the charming town of Cockermouth, Cumbria, this extravagantly redesigned Church Hall offers a unique accommodation experience for up to twenty guests. Once a school hall where the famous poet William Wordsworth was educated, the property features rustic stone walls and parquet floors, seamlessly blending historical charm with modern luxury. The ground floor accommodates the main sleeping quarters, while a grand wood-panelled stairwell leads to an expansive open-plan hall adorned with sparkling chandeliers, cozy breakout areas, a bar, and a striking eighteen-seater circular dining table, making it an ideal setting for gatherings and celebrations.

Guests can enjoy a variety of entertainment options, including a large widescreen TV for movie nights and a well-equipped kitchen that caters to large groups with amenities such as a dishwasher, built-in microwave, and an aga-style gas cooker. The basement spa area, complete with an eight-seater hot tub, offers a tranquil retreat for relaxation and socializing, enhanced by a sound system for soothing music. The outdoor space is equally inviting, featuring a fire pit, hammock, and BBQ grill, perfect for enjoying sunny days and al fresco dining.

The sleeping accommodations are diverse and luxurious, with a magnificent master suite on the top floor featuring an emperor-sized bed, freestanding bath, and a private balcony with views of the city. Additional sleeping options include a four-poster bed in one room, four double bedrooms, and a unique children’s room with two double beds and a double bunk setup. This makes the property suitable for families and groups celebrating special occasions, providing ample comfort and style throughout.

Beyond the property, guests can explore the rich history of Cockermouth, including the National Trust’s Wordsworth House and Gardens, where visitors can tour the poet's birthplace and enjoy the riverside gardens. Outdoor enthusiasts can venture to Bassenthwaite Lake for scenic walks, or visit local attractions like the Lakes Distillery and Mirehouse. For those seeking adventure, the nearby peaks of Skiddaw and Blencathra offer breathtaking hiking opportunities, while the Solway Coast presents a stunning natural landscape filled with wildlife. The area also provides access to the Lake District, with activities such as sailing, kayaking, and cycling, ensuring a memorable stay for all visitors.
