Reach thousands of house-hunters
Because we’re part of a national network of estate agents, you benefit from all the buyers on our books. And to boost the reach of your property even further, we advertise it in all the places buyers and tenants are looking.
That includes Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket and our website too.
The more interested buyers and tenants we reach, the quicker your property will come off the market.
Attention-grabbing marketing
To get viewers through the door, you need an eye-catching ad. We offer a range of different marketing packages for you to help you build the best ad possible.
Options include professional photography and videography, detailed floor plans, virtual tours and even QR codes for your signage.
Flexible lettings packages for landlords
Our lettings packages complement the way you want to manage your property.
From just sourcing tenants to rent collection and completely managing your property, you choose the package that’s right for you.
If you’re unsure which package to choose, our team are on hand to help.
No commission fee until we’re successful
It’s as simple as that. You don’t pay commission until we’ve successfully found you a buyer or tenant.
Workington is a picturesque town on the west coast of Cumbria. It has a wide variety of state and private schools in the areas that cover all levels of education, so it’s a lovely town for families to settle down.
A car is the easiest way to get around Workington, with the A595 and A66 nearby running through the Lake District and north to Carlisle. Trains run to Carlisle and Barrow-in-Furness with infrequent services to Lancaster.
Workington has all the benefits of a coastal town, but if wide open spaces are more your speed, the Lake District is a short drive away. In Workington itself there are museums, kids play centres, theatres, cinemas and plenty of shopping opportunities.

Workington is a historic market town located at the mouth of the River Derwent on the Solway Coast, and yet so close to the Northern Lake District for a real taste of the best of both worlds - you can spend time at the seaside or for the walkers among us, a short drive takes you to the beautiful, yet challenging, Lakeland Fells.
Some parts of Workington date back to Roman times and our fascinating history can be explored by a visit to the Senhouse Roman Museum just a stone’s throw away along the coast in Maryport.
Workington’s industrial heritage was reliant on iron and steel manufacture, and coal mining which have since gone into decline. However, the town is immensely proud of its industrial heritage and there are echoes of this past dotted about this bustling town. There is also a splendid 14-acre town centre park called Vulcan’s Park which has family fun days during the warmer months and a cenotaph honouring our fallen soldiers.
Sitting in the heart of the town centre is Curwen Hall, formerly a grand manor house elevated above the River Derwent with its wooded grounds, previously owned by the Curwen family and now a much visited ruin, Curwen Hall gave refuge to a fleeing Mary Queen of Scots as she escaped from Scotland.
Workington is the main shopping centre for the West Cumbria area with a variety of local independent and major high street retailers, there are lots of eateries, bars, pubs and two busy theatres offering a diverse choice of music and drama.
Workington has an annual tradition every Easter of an “Uppies and Downies” match. This is a medieval version of football but has a distinct similarity to rugby. Depending where you live in Workington, you are either an ‘Uppie’ or a ‘Downie’. The game is played with a small leather ball which has to be hailed (thrown into the air) three times at the opposition’s goal. There is no pitch and the game is pure rough and tumble, it is played over several nights and each team can have around a thousand players.
Workington is steeped in history and there are some fascinating period properties on the edge of the town centre. The local village of Seaton which is one of the largest villages in England, has its own primary schools and local amenities which makes it very popular with families and couples. Ashfield and Stainburn are popular suburbs of Workington due to the handy local primary schools and short walking distance into town. Further east are the villages of Great Clifton, Little Clifton, and Bridgefoot. Heading west takes you to the coastal village of Harrington with its own harbour and seaside, adjacent to here is High Harrington with lots of family friendly residential areas and a little further still lies Distington and the more rural village of Gilgarran.
Workington is a bustling industrial town with convenient transport links to the Lake District towns and to the City of Carlisle.
There is plenty of choice for primary schools and two major secondary schools in the town centre, St Joseph’s RC High School, and Workington Academy. As Workington is part of the Energy Coast, we are proud to have the Energy Coast University Technical College in the town specialising in the trades required in the local area.
