The Cumbria/Lake District region
Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes – the Lake District landscape has inspired several literary greats, including William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. Water, where you can cruise the lake on a steam-powered yacht soaking up the scenery in Victorian style, could be for you. Walking is one of the best ways of exploring the Lake District.
For the serious walker the mountains of Skiddaw, Scafell and Helvellyn provide enjoyable challenges, whilst at lower levels there are hundreds of routes wandering among the lakes and stone-walled fields. You can even choose a lake to suit your mood: if bustling lakeside towns and exhilarating watersports take your fancy, then Windermere and Coniston Water, where you can cruise the lake on a steam-powered yacht soaking up the scenery in Victorian style, could be for you. If it’s peace and tranquility you seek then the secluded lakes of Buttermere and Wastwater are not to be missed. Yet Cumbria offers much more than the lakes alone. Explore the National Nature Reserve on Walney Island or visit the picturesque Duddon Valley, where the heather clad moors peppered with birch trees inspired many of Wordsworth’s poems.
With its award-winning gardens and the Lakeland Motor Museum, Holker Hall is also a great day out, whilst in northern Cumbria the peaceful villages of Caldbeck and Ireby offer a haven of solitude and picturesque tranquility. To the east lies the green and sheltered Eden Valley. Its dramatic landscape provides a range of activities including walking, cycling and watersports and is home to the Lakeland Bird of Prey Centre and Lowther Wildlife Park, perfect for a family day out
The Kendal area
The historic town of Kendal is a wonderful, vibrant city on the banks of the River Kent. Sometimes referred to as the Southern Gateway to the Lakes, this ancient settlement is home to a lively shopping centre. Its cobbled lanes and byways branch off an attractive main street whilst the stone ruins of the 12th Century Kendal Castle is situated high above the town. Visitors can enjoy The Abbot Hall Art Gallery, with its regular collection holding portraits by Kendal born George Romney as well as works by Turner and Ruskin. With other exhibitions through its links with the Tate, this gallery provides a fascinating, unique experience. Both Sizergh Castle and Levens Hall are nearby, as are various limestone escarpments, offering thrilling views over the Lakeland Mountains, the Howgills and Morecambe Bay. The town of Kendal itself is ideally placed for exploring South Lakeland, and the Yorkshire Dales, and boasts attractions such as Kendal Museum and the Museum of Lakeland Life.

Guestbook for 2621 - Kentside House
I liked the location. I liked the house generally. It is an old house with a lot of history. I liked the furnishing also.

,Brilliant! Would definitely return to Kentside House! Excellent place to stay!
Miss Brice, West Wickham,

,Brilliant location only a few minutes walk into the town centre. The house was very large, with plenty of character and room for our party of 10, with more room to spare. We all felt very much at home here, the outside area was good as it was very windy while we was here, but being enclosed it kept the wind down.
