Location Broughton in Furness is small, picturesque market town which is often overlooked as is bypassed when travelling to the western fells or the Cumbrian coast. That does mean that this little, picturesque town enjoys a peaceful and quiet, traditional village community feeling. It had a population of just over 500 at the 2011 Census and is located on the South Western boundary of England's Lake District National Park.

Broughton is well served by amenities such as Doctors Surgery, Primary School, Post Office, Veterinary Surgery, Butchers, Bakers etc - the nearest Railway Station is within easy reach at Foxfield.

To reach the property take the A595 from Greenodd and follow the road towards Broughton in Furness. Take the right turn after the left hand bend (signposted Broughton in Furness) and follow the lane into the village. Passing the Primary School on the brow of the hill take the second left and then first right into Prince Street. No. 5 can be found close to the top of the street on the left hand side.
