Silloth is home — and Michael Stanwix is its most famous resident. This charming Solway Coast town provides a unique base for professional modelling, photoshoots, and brand work with coastal backdrops you won't find anywhere else in Cumbria.
Silloth-on-Solway sits on the quiet Cumbrian coast, looking across the Solway Firth to Scotland. Its Victorian green, wide promenades, and unspoilt beaches create a distinctive setting that's world away from the crowded Lake District honeypots — and that's exactly its appeal.
As Michael's home town, Silloth is where many of his most authentic shoots take place. The light on the Solway is extraordinary — wide skies, dramatic sunsets, and a coastal atmosphere that gives images a cinematic quality. Brands looking for something different from standard Lake District imagery find exactly what they need here.
Zero travel costs for Silloth shoots. Also serving the wider Solway Coast including Allonby, Maryport, Skinburness, and Abbeytown. The perfect starting point for any Cumbrian project.
