OWNERS' COMMENTS
"The apartment faces south and west. It has dual aspect windows in the living room. It is sunny and light and warm in the winter and so is more economical to heat.
The rooms are all a good size.
There are beautiful views facing both south and west. From the south, the fells in the distance and in the foreground, the castle and a picture postcard view of the town. From the west, the River Derwent can be seen in the winter when the leaves are off the trees, and in the foreground there is a field with horses.
The balcony is suitable for my 'pot garden'.
There is a Ventaxia system for ventilating the whole apartment, which is particularly useful in winter.
There is a lot going on in Cockermouth, it is a pretty town and the facilities and shops are very good."
