About this property
Carwinley Mill House Cottage is a charming getaway in Netherby, positioned perfectly on the edge of the Lakes and Scottish Borders. This property is a converted building in the grounds of the owners own listed mill house and offers a perfect break for a couple looking for an indulgent escape to the countryside. Set on one level, the flow of this ground-floor two-person retreat is a delight as you take in the spacious living area. Beams straddle the vaulted ceiling in the sitting-room section, with its comfortable furniture, sandstone feature fireplace and patio doors into the private decking area beyond. A stunning archway leads into the luxury kitchen, with its high-end finish and indulgent breakfast island. The double bedroom has its own patio doors into the outside space with a comfortable bathroom completing the property. The sitting room leads out onto a decking area with patio furniture, and the bedroom patio doors lead out to your own private hot tub, perfect for a romantic summers evening. Netherby is a tiny hamlet near to the England/Scotland border. The cottage is set within significant grounds, perfect for a walk and a bit of bird-spotting. Longtown is the nearest town, offering your closest shops and amenities. Being located so close to the border there is much to appeal in the region. A trip south will take you to the city life of Cumbrias capital, Carlisle. If something more secluded appeals, thirty miles north finds the beauty of the Kielder National Nature Reserve, with its Water and Forest Parks. Gretna and Hadrian's Wall are other attractions nearby. Located so perfectly on the edge of the Lake District and Scottish Border, Carwinley Mill House Cottage offers an ideal spot for a couple to grab a romantic break for two in some beautiful scenery, whatever the time of year.
Longtown runs alongside the River Elsk and is located in Northern Cumbria. The town offers a variety of shops, pubs and restaurants. Situated in the heart of four Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there is plenty to explore. Nearby is Brompton and Carlisle, and why not visit Dumfries and Galloway!

The hosts were more than welcoming and met our requests of turning the hot tub on for us before our arrival. The cottage was truly lovely and we enjoyed our weekend break. The bed is slightly uncomfortable but after all the walking around Lake District youâre that shattered we fell asleep straight away :) would defo come back. Thank you!

Lovely large hot tub. Lots of upgrade work due to creation of wedding venue so occasional noise. No information regarding area in cottage, would have been good to have at least local info. Mattress on bed needs replacing very saggy, not comfortable. When we left we tried to hand in keys and there was literally nobody there. Had to leave key in the door. I called the mobile number provided and left a voicemail to say we were going and to apologise as I had broken a plate, didnât get any response.

Hot tub was fantastic,the cottage was very clean and well maintained. The only minor faults we did find was the blinds in the bedroom could not be wound back up once you pulled them down also the same issue with one in the living room and the sofa would be better if it was a 3 seater and not a 2. Overall we had a fantastic experience and we would definitely recommend it.
