Room in Character Terraced House. Close to amenities yet 5 mins from great views

The space

We are offering the twin bedroom, bathroom with shower over the bath, downstairs toilet, and sitting rooms (shared with us) for TV if required. One sitting room has the TV, The other is used for reading, chatting or checking emails etc.

Guest access: Welcome to use Wi Fi for checking emails, FB etc.

The kitchen

Our kitchen is vegan. Maisie & Lina have vegan dog food, occasionally their treat biscuits are not fully vegan (due to nowhere selling vegan dog food where we live) but we try to order, or make, enough. Their feeding bowls and utensils are kept separate from ours.

The hob, oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine & dryer are available to guests. Also, cooking pans etc.

Other things to note

We are situated just a 5 minute walk from the railway station. Trains run to Barrow-in-Furness, Ulverston, Grange-over-Sands, and Lancaster or, Ravenglass, Seascale, Sellafield, Whitehaven, Workington and Carlisle. Plus stations in between. Coniston is a 40 minute drive, Wastwater approx an hour's drive. Times may be less as we have a camper-van so slower.

There's a Local Nature Reserve, The Ironworks SSSI, (known locally as The Slaggy) home to Natterjack toads, and a variety of orchids (in season) just 15 minutes walk from the house. The RSPB reserve Hodbarrow is approximately 20-30 minutes walk. From there the sea-wall can be accessed and provides an interesting walk to Haverigg, with a bird hide and great views. A good stopping off point is Herdwicks for a cuppa and snack. Yes they serve almond and other plant milks! I even saw dairy-free ice-cream on the menu. Plus the good 'ole standby, chips with salad, toasted teacake and usually a vegan soup.

The estuary walk begins just 5 mins from the house and has fabulous views of mountains and hills.....on a clear day.
