Description of the holiday cottage

Cherry Croft is a two bedroom holiday cottage near Bowness on Solway in Cumbria, sleeping up to four guests. Set close to the Solway Firth with open views towards Scotland, it is a peaceful self catering stay for couples, friends or a small family looking for coast, countryside, wildlife and access to Hadrian’s Wall country.

The cottage is arranged across one level, with a super king size bedroom that can be arranged as a twin on request, plus a king size bedroom with en suite shower room. There is also a separate wet room with shower, basin and WC, giving guests two bathroom spaces during their stay. The single storey layout, wet room and ramp access may be useful for guests who prefer fewer steps, although anyone with specific access needs should check the full details before booking.

The living spaces include a kitchen, sitting room and dining room or conservatory, giving guests comfortable areas for cooking, relaxing and enjoying the views. Practical features include WiFi, Smart TV, oil central heating, electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, bed linen and towels.

Outside, Cherry Croft has an enclosed wraparound garden with lawn, patio and furniture. The garden and large windows make the most of the surrounding views, with the Solway Firth to the front and RSPB Campfield Marsh nearby. Guests interested in birdwatching, quiet walks and big coastal skies may find this location especially appealing.

The location is one of the main reasons to consider Cherry Croft. The estuary beach is approximately 0.1 miles away, the pub is approximately 1 mile away and the shop is approximately 4 miles away. Bowness on Solway is known as the western end of Hadrian’s Wall Path, making the cottage a useful base for walkers starting or finishing the trail.

Guests can also explore the Solway Coast, Campfield Marsh, South Solway Mosses, Carlisle, Wigton, Silloth, Gretna Green and parts of the Scottish Borders. Keswick and the northern Lake District can also be reached by car for a longer day out, giving guests a mix of coast, countryside, history, wildlife and market towns.

Cherry Croft does not accept pets and smoking is not permitted. Electric vehicle charging is not allowed at the property, although local charging points may be available nearby. A good housekeeping bond may apply, and changeover days are usually Monday and Friday, although the owner may consider enquiries. Before booking, it is worth checking the latest prices, availability, parking details, access notes, EV charging rules, review scores and booking terms through the cottage provider, as these can change throughout the year.
