Coastal holiday let property in Cumbria on the market

Herdwicks Holiday Home boasts views out to the Irish Sea and sits close to the 200-acre Port Haverigg lake, which is a popular water sports destination, as well as being perched at the edge of the Lake District National Park.

The property was acquired by the current owners in 2016 and has since undergone extensive refurbishment work. Presented in immaculate condition, the property has been maintained to an exceptional standard.

The house operated as a popular bistro/bar with rooms until 2022 and was a regular spot for guests staying at holiday parks in the surrounding area. In 2022 the property became a second home and holiday let which can sleep up to 14 guests.

The property offers exciting potential for new owners, with the option to continue operating as a six-bedroom, self-contained holiday let, or alternatively to convert it back to its former use as a bistro/bar with rooms.

The current owners commented, “We have loved owning Herdwicks for the last ten years. The views across the coast are beautiful, and the opportunity to own such an impressive property was one we did not want to miss.

“We worked hard on the full refurbishment of the property, focussing on creating high quality accommodation. Operating as a bistro/bar was very successful, and more recently we have enjoyed the property as our second home and operated it as a self-contained holiday let. We have so many fond memories from our time here and we are thrilled that the feedback from guests is that they have all loved it as well.”

Graham Wilkinson, Business Agent for Christie & Co who is based in the Lake District, added, “As the owners of Herdwicks look to retire and pursue new interests, this is a great opportunity for a new owner to acquire a superb property, with amazing coastal views, just a few minutes’ drive to the hills and lakes of the Lake District. Herdwicks is ideal as a holiday let investment property or alternatively would suit those seeking an owner-operated lifestyle business.”

The property is on the market with a freehold asking price of £895,000. For more information, visit: https://www.christie.com/6445217/
