Wunderschön hergerichtetes Haus im Zentrum von Cockermouth gelegen. Die Kinder können mit dem alten Spielzeug spielen oder sich alte Klamotten anziehen, fast in allen Räumen darf alles in die Hände genommen und erfahren werden. Es war ein schönes Erlebnis.

Fantastic realisation of a past time setting with rooms, fittings, furniture and reproduction foods. The childrens room with toys and clothing was great.
