Welcome to a charming coastal escape in the heart of St Bees, a peaceful seaside village on the Cumbrian coast where dramatic landscapes, fresh sea air, and a relaxed pace of life create an ideal holiday atmosphere. This delightful one-bedroom cottage sits just moments from the start of Wainwright’s famous Coast-to-Coast walk, making it a wonderful base for both adventure seekers and those craving a quiet coastal stay. Guests can enjoy long walks along the red sandstone cliffs of St Bees Head, an RSPB nature reserve alive with seabirds and sweeping sea views, perfect for birdwatching, photography, or simply soaking in the tranquillity. The expansive sandy beach is ideal for swimming, paddling, or rock pooling, while the scenic promenade offers a gentle stroll with the sound of waves always nearby.

History lovers can explore the ancient St Bees Priory with its 900 years of heritage, and the nearby railway line makes day trips effortless, with Whitehaven’s harbour, museums, and attractions only a short ride away. Cosy pubs and cafés scattered throughout the village, including favourites near the beachfront, give visitors a taste of local Cumbrian hospitality.
The cottage itself, nestled on Cross Hill, offers a warm and inviting retreat after a day of exploring. Its bright open-plan living space combines living, dining, and kitchen areas to create a sociable, relaxing layout ideal for couples or solo travellers.

Upstairs, the double bedroom features a charming vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and a Juliet balcony that lets in soft coastal breezes. A modern en-suite shower room adds to the comfort, while gas central heating and double glazing ensure the property stays snug throughout the year. The train station is only a short walk away, making arrival and outings simple and stress-free.
Altogether, this coastal hideaway offers tranquillity, charm, and convenience – a perfect holiday home for relaxing, exploring, and enjoying the best of St Bee
