Location

Cockermouth is an attractive market town on the fringe of the Lake District National Park, although not quite as popular or as busy with tourists like the towns of Keswick, Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere, the town attracts tourists throughout the spring, summer, and early autumn, which enhances trade for the retail community, as well as drawing regular visitors from the nearby West Cumbrian towns of Workington, Whitehaven, and Maryport throughout the year.

The former Grand Theatre on Station Road is prominently positioned in a prime retail location in the town close to Sainsburys, Lidl, Dominos, Costa and a range of strong independent retailers for various café, restaurant and gift shop occupiers. The building sits adjacent to Lorton Street. A large pay and display car park is positioned at the rear of the property.
