We are owl enthusiasts and are happy to show you around and tell you about the various birds. The garden bird feeders and wildlife friendly planting also attract a wide variety of wild birds and we are sometimes visited by wild owls, buzzards or pheasants.

Close to major wedding venues in area. We are five minutes' drive from Whitehaven Golf Course which is a very popular venue for weddings, baptisms, indeed any celebration. You can also play golf there, of course! We are five minutes' drive from Moresby Hall, again a very popular venue plus within easy driving distance of many local hotels which host large weddings and celebrations.

30 minutes from Wild Ennerdale Ennerdale Valley is a beautiful unspoilt area of the Western Lakes and is a very popular walking site, although it still seems very quiet and peaceful when you are there. It has protected status and Wild Ennerdale is being developed, where the area is being "rewilded" and essentially given back to nature and wildlife.

45 minutes from Scafell Pike Scafell is the highest mountain in England and looks down on beautiful Wasdale Valley. This holds the deepest lake and the smallest church as well as the highest mountain. At the foot of Scafell you can enjoy local ales brewed right there in a micro-brewery and enjoy what was voted recently as "Britain's finest view".

Close to West Cumberland Hospital If you are coming to work for a while at West Cumberland Hospital, which serves West Cumbria and outlying areas, and need accommodation we can offer quiet private accommodation in peaceful surroundings and a friendly welcome at the end of a busy day. If you are attending WCH to visit a loved one, we are within 5 - 10 minutes from there.

20 minutes from Sellafield site. Sellafield, the largest employer in the area, uses a lot of contract incoming labour from out of the area, as well as specialist scientists brought in to oversee development. If you are one of these, we can offer comfortable accommodation on a week by week basis with free Wi-Fi and excellent breakfasts.

Friendly personal service We are a family home so we live on the premises. Retired from employment, we have time to be here most of the day to ensure your room is kept tidy and clean, refreshment tray refilled and bathroom kept spotless. Having lived in the area all our lives we can advise on where to go for sightseeing, shopping or to any specific place you need to visit.

Perfect for animal and bird lovers We have a large variety of pets of our own, including our Border Collie Rosie and Westie Poppy. We have captive owls in aviaries in the garden and also have visiting owls on occasion. We run Norah's Ark where we look after pets from rabbit to reptiles, hamsters to hedgehogs when people go away on holiday. We are happy to show guests around our other "guests" if they are interested.
