Boustead House is well located within Allonby, enjoying

involvement in salt making, smuggling, ship breaking,

weaving, horse riding and the fishing industry.

The attractive coastline which incorporates Hadrian's Cycle

Way the England coastal path system provides a wonderful

playground for outdoor enthusiasts. Walkers, beachcombers

and kite surfers are spoilt for choice. The Victorian seaside

town of Silloth is eight miles to the north and it has a

renowned links golf course. The region's capital, Carlisle, is
