Perched on Swinside Fell, Lorton View takes its name from the stunning scenery that greets you at every turn and from the windows, doorway and patio. Tucked into the hillside at the rear, with wide open views across the fells from the front, it’s the perfect base for walkers and nature lovers, with trails leading straight from your door and being on the Coast2Coast cycle route exploring the peaceful western fells could not be easier. From here you can soak up sweeping views across the Lake District, the Solway Coast, and even into Scotland.

Just a short drive away, you will find the bustling market towns of Cockermouth and Keswick, brimming with independent shops, cosy pubs, inviting restaurants, and plenty of attractions to explore. Yet, after a day out, you will love retreating to the total tranquillity of Lorton View.
