About This Property

Oakbank Scotby is a 5 bedroom dog friendly property in The Lake District and Cumbria

This incredible house is in a rural location yet easy to reach being just 3 miles from Carlisle and 12 miles from Gretna Green. It’s perfect for a large family holiday or a group of friends who want to get together in a fabulous setting. There’s a golf course down the road, Hadrian’s Wall nearby and lots of pretty walks on the doorstep. Occupying the wing of this beautiful Victorian property, the house is set over three floors. The impressive living room has period features and elegant furniture. There’s a second informal lounge with a TV, games console and sofa (a sofa bed which can sleep two more guests). The conservatory makes a stunning dining room and there’s an accessible wet room and WC on the ground floor too. Up the grand staircase are four of the five bedrooms, all tastefully decorated and furnished: a king, two doubles and a twin, as well as a family bathroom. The magnificent Master suite is on the second floor with a super-king bedroom, en-suite shower room, and a lounge area with a sofa and TV. Bi-fold doors lead out to the balcony where there are incredible views. The house sits in beautiful grounds with a patio, lawns, a BBQ, and even a children’s play area. There’s a village shop, pub, and restaurant and more places to stock up on groceries or eat out in Carlisle (3 miles away). The town’s cathedral and castle are worth visiting too, as is Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery if you’re interested in the local history. Hadrian’s Wall is 15 miles away, where many forts, milecastles and turrets remain along its 73-mile length. There’s an accessible walk around Talkin Tarn (8 miles away) and Carlisle Golf Club is just 1 mile from the house.
