Description

If you fancy having your own comfortable room in a large shared house situated below a ruined castle, and also the idea of good company and shared living costs, then this is the house for you! We have 2 double rooms becoming available from the beginning of July. Couples would also be welcome.

We are Jenny and Jon and we would love to hear from you if you fancy sharing our listed Georgian townhouse with us? Cockermouth is a gem of a town with plenty of open spaces, riverside walks and a variety of pubs, bars, cafes and some great little independent shops as well as the glories of the Lake District all on your doorstep!

For £250 pcm + bills £115 approx/ pcm and a deposit of £200, you can have one of two unfurnished sunny double bedrooms.
Bedroom 1 is on the first floor with a shower room along the landing.
Bedroom 2 has an ensuite bathroom - bath only but you could use the shower downstairs.
The rooms are potentially large enough to be used as home offices if you work from home.

You also have share of a huge living room and the kitchen on the ground floor - think large sofa for lounging in front of real fire, making and listening to music ( Jon plays in bands), entertaining friends, table tennis, poker nights and regular chat around the kitchen table on an evening. We also have our own suntrap of a courtyard garden, complete with a well, for drinks and BBQ's in the summer.

You can join in as much or as little as you like but as the house is so big, you will not find privacy or solitude, a problem either. Smokers are also welcome. We are a couple in our early 60's and are used to living with people of all ages, but appreciate that might not suit everyone.

So if you think this is the way of life for you, please do get in touch! We would love to hear from you!
