Description
Cruck Cottage offers you the best of both worlds - a beautifully restored 16th century home with its original charm still shining through, combined with modern comforts that make everyday living (or holiday letting) a joy.
It’s even rumoured to be the original house in the village, so every beam, stone and stained glass window carries centuries of stories - and now it’s ready for you to write the next chapter.
There’s exposed stonework, ancient beams and even the original bread oven tucked into the corner - a proper slice of Allonby’s past.
But this is no museum piece. The kitchen is stylish, handmade and fully equipped with a dishwasher and fridge freezer. Perfect for lazy breakfasts or seafood feasts after a day exploring the Solway Coast.
Upstairs, the bedroom is framed by the impressive cruck beam - a stunning centrepiece that reminds you just how much history lives within these solid sandstone walls.
The living space is built for cosy evenings - sandstone floors underfoot, a log-burning stove crackling away and original stained glass catching the light.
It’s the kind of room you’d never want to leave, unless of course you’re heading outside to your private cobbled seating area, perfect for a sunset drink (or letting the dog out for a quick wander).
Right now, Cruck Cottage is a thriving holiday let, generating a strong Airbnb income and glowing reviews from guests who fall for its charm the moment they arrive.
But the real question is… will you keep those bookings rolling in, or will you claim this historic gem all for yourself?
Allonby itself adds to the magic - a charming coastal village on the edge of the Solway Coast AONB, with beaches, seafood spots and Lake District adventures all within easy reach.
It’s the kind of place that makes you want to slow down, breathe in the sea air and savour a “99” from Twentymans famous ice cream parlour…
Whether you let it or love it for yourself, this is a rare chance to own a proper piece of Allonby’s history - with all the beautiful restoration work having already been done for you.
I’m expecting plenty of interest in this unique 500 year old cottage - call to arrange a viewing.
