Stanwix Cottage. Walking distance of park and town

It has three reception rooms including a conservatory overlooking the lovely enclosed garden with patio and three bedrooms, one ensuite. It is within walking distance of the city centre and Rickerby Park and the River Eden.

Upstairs, its three bedrooms sleep up to five people. The master bedroom has a king size bed and an ensuite shower room. There is a double room and a single room which share the newly fitted out bathroom.
