Cosy Cottage with Log Burner by Lake District, Close to Coast, Lakes & Fells

Featherbed Cottage is a charming two-bedroom retreat set in the peaceful Cumbrian village of Blennerhassett - perfectly positioned between the sweeping Solway Coast, the Lake District fells, and the vibrant market towns of Wigton and Cockermouth, with Keswick just a short and scenic drive to the southeast. We love how the cottage blends cosy character with modern comfort: a warm and welcoming lounge featuring a log-burning fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen ideal for relaxed meals, and calm, inviting bedrooms that make it easy to unwind from the moment you arrive.

What makes this area so special is the sheer variety on your doorstep. Within minutes you can stroll along quiet country lanes, take in the breath taking sunsets along the Solway shoreline, or venture southeast toward Bassenthwaite Lake, Keswick, and the iconic Northern Fells—including Skiddaw, Blencathra and many of Alfred Wainwright’s celebrated peaks. Featherbed Cottage offers the perfect balance: close to the coast, the lakes and the fells, yet wonderfully peaceful and tucked away from the crowds.

Whether you’re here for scenic walks, wildlife, local culture, or simply to slow down and soak up the fresh Cumbrian air, this cottage makes an ideal base for adventures and relaxation alike.
