Stanwix Cottage. Walking distance of park and town

Stanwix Cottage dates back to the 1650s when it was part of the coaching Inn which is now the Crown and Thistle. It has been recently fully renovated and is an ideal comfortable base to tour the City of Carlisle, Cumbria, including the Lake District or Southern Scotland.

It has three reception rooms including a conservatory overlooking the lovely enclosed garden with patio and three bedrooms, one ensuite. It is within walking distance of the city centre and Rickerby Park and the River Eden.
The space
Behind its modest exterior frontage, Stanwix Cottage is a real tardis. It has been completely modernised internally in recent times and is a real home from home. It has three unique sitting areas where you can sit comfortably and relax. There is a well fitted out kitchen with breakfast bar and a dining table in the lounge area.

Upstairs, its three bedrooms sleep up to five people. The master bedroom has a king size bed and an ensuite shower room. There is a double room and a single room which share the newly fitted out bathroom.

The enclosed garden is a real joy with a grassed area, mature shrubs and plants and a patio with table and chairs to seat up to six.
Guest access
Guests have exclusive use of the whole property.
