About this property

Finest Retreats | Glendale

Nestled at the bottom of the infamous Solway Coast Area of Natural Beauty is Glendale, a beautifully presented 2 bedroom cottage on the upper floor of The Long House. Looking out over the Solway Firth all the way to the Criffel Hills in Scotland, this is the perfect location for serenity and relaxation, and yet a perfect base to explore all that this part of Cumbria has to offer. The West Coasts sunsets are something to behold, lucky guests can even catch glimpses of pink and green polar lights of the aurora borealis.

Enter the building via the stone steps into Glendale, the bright entrance hallway ushers you in, immediately your gaze caught by the windows directly opposite looking west out over the firth. The master bedroom shares the coastal view, fully equipped with a comfortable king sized double bed, fitted wardrobes, and relaxing recliner to soak in the views. The second bedroom with double bed makes Glendale the perfect couples or family retreat.

The living room has seating for all, beautifully decorated with peaceful artwork making this a home from home. There is a smart TV, however with a window to watch the stars at night, it’s likely you’ll not be looking at a TV at all. The living room partially shares its space with the dining room, seating for 4 and again, another incredible view. The kitchen is fully equipped for all culinary needs to cook up a feast for all, in addition to toaster, coffee machine, microwave oven and more. A washing machine and dryer is also there for your convenience.

The small town of Silloth is only a 10 minute drive with its vast array of delights, from several cafes, an ice cream shop and bars to the motorcycle museum, this surprising little town has a lot to offer.

Peaceful
So lovely, really homely. All the essentials plus bits like sandwich boxes and a slow cooker in the kitchen. Tourist leaflets and info pack could do with udating. Would be helpful to have supermarket/ local market/pharmacy details. Limited rainy day things to do in the flat. No books, family games etc. However, Carlisle nearby. Loads of hidden tea rooms and cafes in the surrounding villages. Maryport is gorgeous.

Excellent location and lovely accommodation
The flat is really very well done and nicely spacious. The views are wonderful and looking out over the sea from the sofa was so lovely. Good location, incredibly peaceful but close enough to the town that you don't feel cut off. Bed was very comfy. Worth adding to the listing that the coffee machine is a Tassimo - I'd have taken pods with me had a known what make it was. The milk pots provided with the tea/coffee were all over a month past the use by date.

This was one of the nicest holiday properties we have ever stayed in. Total peace and quiet, amazing views out of all rear rooms. Everything we needed, superbly equipped. Beautiful apartment with high spec and high standard furnishing. Fabulous bathroom with a great shower. Immaculately clean throughout and the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in! A lovely touch of little 'treats' for your stay. Not for anyone with mobility problems as there is a flight of steps up to the entrance. The road in is a little hard to find and a bit on the 'rugged' side but well worth it when you get there. We can't wait to go again!
