Stone and render homes at The View, Underskiddaw with the fells behind

Bring your dream
home to life.

Award-winning new homes in Cumbria and the Lake District, built by a family firm that has been building here for over 40 years.

Built in Cumbria, by people who live here.

Atkinson Homes is the housebuilding arm of a family-owned Penrith construction group. We choose our sites carefully, build them with our own trades, and stay around long after you have the keys. Most of our homes are sold to people who already know someone living in one.
