Harbour View is a comfortable, well-presented harbourside apartment in the Ritson Wharf development of Maryport. The living room and master bedroom have superb views of the harbour and expansive views across the Solway and beyond towards Scotland. Recently refurbished in 2020, this first floor apartment is ideally situated just 5 minutes’ walk away from the town centre. Being by the harbour and yacht marina, walkers have easy access to the England Coastal Path (Allonby to Whitehaven).

Cyclists, too, can enjoy the coastal scenes with a mix of traffic free and quiet local road routes. The coast aquarium with its crazy golf, café and children’s shipwreck themed play area is just a short stroll away. Indoor climbing and indoor caving can be found close by at the Wave Centre, or you can try out go-karting at West Coast Indoor Karting on the outskirts of town.

The nearby Maryport Maritime Museum and Senhouse Roman Museum are also high on the list of attractions for many visitors here. Golfers are catered for by the 18-hole course of the Maryport Golf Club nestled on the coastline between the Solway Firth and the Cumbrian Fells. The unspoilt Solway Coast stretching east of Maryport has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is home to many species of wading birds making it a popular destination for bird watchers. The bustling market town of Cockermouth, birthplace of romantic poet William Wordsworth is just 8 miles away with Keswick and the Lake District National Park just 22 miles away. Shop, pub and restaurant 400 yards.
