Bigrigg, Egremont, CA22 2TX

The Beach, Fells, Lakes Or Sellafield – This Clever Little Cottage’s Location Works Hard So You Don’t Have To. Let it to contractors, share it with Airbnb guests or keep it as your own cosy and quiet home - with lovely views to enjoy at the front and back.

Tucked away down a peaceful lane, this former quarryman's cottage gives you options. It’s equally at home as a cosy retreat or a practical base that’s already proven itself popular with both tourists and contractors.

Currently a successful Airbnb, it’s perfectly placed for anyone heading to the coast, the Western Lakes or Sellafield – all within a 15 minute drive. 

And while the setting is quiet and semi-rural, you’re certainly not stuck out in the sticks - there’s a handy Spar in the village and Bigrigg is just off the A595, making it easy to get to Egremont or Whitehaven.

Inside, the versatile layout works brilliantly. Downstairs there’s a cosy lounge with a log burner, a kitchen-diner, proper utility room and a modern shower room. There’s also a handy storage room at the side that’s ideal for bikes, gear or logs for the fire.

Upstairs, things get even more flexible. What was once a second bedroom is now a 2nd snug – with lovely exposed stonework, it’s the perfect place to relax, read or just take in the views. It also makes a great workspace or guest room, and could be converted back to a bedroom if needed by closing up the stairs and adding it's own doorway.

The main bedroom is a peaceful double with far-reaching countryside views – and the kind of quiet that practically guarantees a good night’s sleep.

Outside, the back garden gets the afternoon sun – just right for relaxing after a beach walk or a trip to the Lakes. There’s off-street parking at the front, and enough space at the back for a second car, a shed or even a greenhouse.

It may only have one bedroom at the moment but this cosy cottage certainly gives you plenty of options and gives you the chance to decide what works – whether that’s letting it out, moving in full-time, or keeping it ready for weekend escapes.

Don’t miss your chance to see if for yourself – get in touch today and come see what a clever little setup this really is.
