The Cumbria/Lake District
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
Ulverston area
Set in a wonderful location, the market town of Ulverston continues to hold a street market every Thursday and Saturday, following an ancient local tradition. Today the settlement is perhaps best known as a festival town due to the many events it hosts throughout the year including walking and art festivals in the summer months and the renowned Dickensian festival in late November. Ulverston is also famous as the birthplace of Stan Laurel and is now home to the only Laurel and Hardy museum in the world. Other facilities in the town itself include a wide range of shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs, a cinema and a leisure centre. All of the attractions of the nearby National Park can be easily reached either by car, bike or public transport whilst the Furness Coast boasts sandy beaches and good birdwatching.
Other attractions suitable for the whole family include the World of Beatrix Potter, the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway, the South Lakes Wild Animal Park and Muncaster Castle.

Guestbook for 2081
"The cottage was nice and clean and in a good location as it was just a short walk to the shops of Ulverston and a short drive to Windermere. The owners of the cottage were friendly and helpful. Having a second sitting room was nice as it gave us extra space." -Mrs Price, Colchester, Essex February 2009
"The property was in an excellent location for all amenities, shops and for touring the lakes. We were greeted with a warm and friendly welcome from the owners who were very helpful. The property had a lovely comfortable homely feel with plenty of space to relax. We enjoyed having lovely open fires to curl up round in an evening, with comfortable beds to end the perfect day. A relaxing enjoyable time was had by us all! Thank you" -Mrs Kelley, Chesterfield, Derbyshire February 2009
