North House

Commanding wonderful views over the Solway Firth to the southern Scottish hills, this large Victorian house was once the residence of a sea captain in the late 19th-century and stands 20 yards from the beach.

Photograph of North House

It is a spacious and self-contained holiday apartment (all of ground floor shown in photo), comfortably furnished and well equipped, with a gravel sitting-out area to the front, and a walled courtyard to the rear. Encircled by an AONB, diversity of birdlife and occasional dolphins, there are also level cycle routes. The beautiful sands at Allonby (7 miles) can be reached by the Cumbrian Coastal Footpath which passes the house. The Lake District, Hadrian's Wall and Scotland are all within 45 minutes' drive. Pubs, tennis (free use) and golf close by.

Entrance hall. One step to charming spacious sitting-room with bay window, sea view and open fire. Glazed doors to dining-room (one step from hall). Modern, well-equipped fitted kitchen with breakfast area. Large double bedroom (6ft bed may be unzipped to provide 3ft twin beds on request) with sea views. Twin-bedded room. Attractive bathroom/W.C. with corner bath and over-bath shower. Shower room/W.C.
