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 Keswick area
The charming village of Braithwaite is set in a stunning location between the magnificent northern lakes of Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite. With whitewashed Lakeland cottages, two village shops and two real ale Inns, each brimming with character, the settlement has retained much of its traditional appeal and offers the added attraction of the Coledale Beck which runs through the village. The beautiful Newlands Valley is situated between Braithwaite and Buttermere, whilst picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw, walkers of all abilities are catered for in this diverse location. Visitors will enjoy a trip to Mirehouse - a grand house and gardens on the shores of the lake with an open-air theatre, as well as trips around the lake. Trotters Farm, Dodd Wood, Derwentwater, and Keswick are also within easy reach.

Guestbook for 1387 - Stoneyacre
The area is ideal for walking and the accommodation ideally situated. The owner was particularly helpful.

,This is a peaceful location with wonderful views and yet very handy for Keswick and the Lake District.
It is also close to the Cumbrian coast which offers pleasing alternatives to the countryside.
Mr Starkie, St. Helens, Merseyside

,Location was spectacular. Owner was helpful and most welcoming. Accommodation was roomy, warm and comfortable, particularly as the weather was so inclement. Many walks direct from the door.
