The hamlet of Bootle Station is the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

There are only 7 trains a day trundling along the line, which runs from Carlisle following the spectacular Cumbrian coast down to Barrow and steam trains every third weekend. This 19th century house was extended and renovated by incorporating the former ticket office and waiting room into additional accommodation. The beach is within easy walking distance, where you can walk for miles along this unspoilt coastline. The beautiful valleys, of Eskdale and Wasdale are close by. The miniature railway at Ravenglass, affectionately known as "Laal Ratty" will take you all the way to Eskdale Green - the kids will love it. Also at Ravenglass is Muncaster Castle and grounds.
