Clift Hill, a splendid Edwardian mansion located in Carlisle, Cumbria, offers a unique retreat for up to 26 guests across its nine bedrooms. This grand residence, with its rich historical background dating back to the early 20th century, boasts majestic views over the Solway Plain and serves as an ideal base for exploring the nearby Lake District, Hadrian’s Wall, and Southern Scotland. The house features a range of amenities including a hot tub, open fire, and pet-friendly accommodations, making it a perfect setting for family gatherings or special celebrations, where children can delight in spotting wildlife such as hares and deer in the garden.
The architectural design of Clift Hill, completed in 1915, reflects the Edwardian love for fresh air and spacious living. It showcases a fascinating blend of historical features, including long-defunct bell pushes and impressive fireplaces, alongside modern comforts. The dining room, adorned with William Morris wallpaper and a family portrait painted by John Walton, creates an inviting atmosphere for both formal dining and casual gatherings. The house's layout, with its numerous doors and charming quirks, evokes a sense of stepping back in time, while offering contemporary amenities like an Aga in the kitchen and fun recreational spaces for children.
Surrounded by the stunning Cumbrian countryside, Clift Hill is ideally situated for outdoor enthusiasts. Just a short distance away lies the UNESCO World Heritage site of Hadrian’s Wall, as well as the breathtaking landscapes of the Lake District National Park and the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The local area is steeped in history, with ancient stone circles and remnants of the Roman era in nearby Carlisle, where visitors can explore the magnificent cathedral and other historical sites. The region also features remnants from World War II, adding to its rich tapestry of historical significance.
Clift Hill not only provides a luxurious and spacious accommodation option but also offers a glimpse into the lifestyle of the Edwardian era, with its carefully preserved features and artistic elements. The property is equipped for large gatherings, with options for additional sleeping arrangements and recreational facilities like a trampoline and zip wire.
