Description
Rose Cottage is nestled in the centre of Bowness-On-Solway at the end of the Roman Wall on the edge of the Solway Firth, with the Scottish hills to the North and The Lakeland fells to the South.
The property is a traditional cottage recently refurbished with a mix of contemporary & classic style. The lounge has a comfy leather sofa, flat screen TV, DVD & woodburner and leads through to a spacious dining area then on to the modern kitchen which is practical yet stylish with oak finishes. Upstairs there are three generous bedrooms, one en-suite, and a family bathroom with roll-top bath. Outside is an enclosed and private seating and barbeque area and there is parking behind the cottage.
Close to Carlisle yet in the peace and tranquility of a traditional Cumbrian village, Rose Cottage is in the ideal location to explore Cumbria and The Lake District. North Cumbria and the Solway have a huge historical importance and there is evidence of this everwhere you visit, from the village church to the remains of Hadrian's Wall.
There are some fantastic walks from the door, including along the remains of Hadrian's Wall, so you can leave your car at the cottage. Alternatively you are a short drive from many interesting sites which we can recommend (or head into Carlisle for a day's shopping!). If you are a family we welcome you to visit our home farm, only ten minutes away, where the children will be introduced to the various animals.
We do accept up to two well-behaved dogs but we kindly ask that they remain downstairs on the tiled areas

Situated on the path of Hadrian’s Wall, at the confluence of the rivers Eden, Caldew and Petteril, Carlisle is just ten miles south of the Scottish border. This vibrant town has served as an important military, industrial, commercial and shopping centre for the region since Roman times. Steeped in the past, it offers a range of both historical and modern attractions for the visitor, including museums, theatres, galleries, parks, sports and swimming facilities. The heart of Carlisle’s historic quarter is home to Cumbria's only cathedral, which was founded in 1122 and has been rebuilt several times. Entry is free and voluntary guides are available. The Prior’s Tower is next to the cathedral and accommodates a small exhibition in the Pele tower.
The imposing medieval fortress of Carlisle Castle has watched over the city for 900 years and is within easy walking distance of the city centre. It now houses the Border Regiment Museum which showcases the history of Cumbria’s County Infantry Regiment, the Border Regiment and the King’s Own Royal Border Regiment and local Militia.
The city boasts a covered market and a pedestrianised shopping centre with a range of shops from the major chain stores to the specialist. Here, every August, the Carlisle Food Fair displays produce from across the continent as well as from the local area, including Cumberland sausage, Cumberland mustard and Cumberland sauce.
Other attractions in the area include: Walby Farm Park, with animals, play barn, maize maze and nature trail; Houghton Hall garden centre with its “World in Miniature”; Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery; and Birdoswald Fort, one of the main forts on Hadrian’s Wall, commanding spectacular views over the Irthing valley to the Lake District Fells.
Other places nearby include Eksdale, Orton and Brampton.
