High Thrushbank

Cockermouth and the North West Fells, North West England

High Thrushbank
High Thrushbank is a spacious cottage in Cockermouth and the North West Fells, Cumbria, sleeping up to twelve and well suited to large family gatherings or groups of friends exploring the Lake District together. A nearby bus stop adds a useful option for getting about.

A handful of local museums are within reach for a change of pace from the fells, including JB Banks Ironmongers (6.1 miles), The Retro Zone (7.8 miles) and the Derwent Pencil Museum (7.8 miles), all offering something a little different for a rainy afternoon.

Harrington station, 9.7 miles away, is the nearest rail link, so a car is recommended for making the most of this rural setting. With its size and location, High Thrushbank is a solid choice for a big group wanting to base themselves among the Cumbrian fells.
