Set in its own private grounds, Holly Cottage, a unique cottage built in 1800s was originally part of Houghton Hall estate. Newly renovated, it still retains many original features & has an abundance of character & charm. It is flanked by trees on both sides & boasts superb open views from the patio, snug & upstairs bedroom. There is also a woodland walk within the grounds. The master bedroom has a four poster bed, the bathroom has the 'wow' factor & the living room retains many features.
Holly Cottage is on the outskirts of Carlisle in a small village called Houghton. Houghton village Center is within walking distance. This includes the village shop & post office, restaurant, garden Center (with coffee shop & local produce stall). At the end of Brunswick Lane is a church. Carlisle is a 10 min drive, Gretna Green & Shopping Outlet is 15mins & the Lakes 30min.
