Crosthwaite

We have lovely local walks direct from our door which include a private walk up our fell (behind the glamping pods) where we have a cairn.  The cairn was built by the local children at Crosthwaite Primary School many years ago.
​
The views are amazing looking out at the Lake District mountains, views over Crosthwaite & the Lyth Valley and you can even see the sea and Blackpool Tower on a clear day!

Windermere, Ambleside & Grasmere

It is approximately 5 miles to Bowness on Windermere where you can catch a gondola/ steamer and travel around the lake or up to Ambleside where you could jump off and have a stroll around the shops or perhaps tea and cake.
Grasmere is a delight, nestling at the foot of some spectacular fells.
There are lots of fabulous walks which can be started from Grasmere which include, Helm Crag, Loughrigg & Rydal Water (to name just a few).  Before heading back, don’t forget to pick up your famous Grasmere Gingerbread.

Kendal

Kendal is a small market town 5 miles away, where you could visit Abbot Hall museum or the ruins of Kendal castle. 

​The Brewery Arts Centre offers cinema, music, theatre and special festivals all year round.
