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 Windermere / Staveley area
Fantastically situated on the eastern fringes of the Lake District National Park and offering superb access to the whole region is the thriving Lakeland village of Staveley. The settlement provides an excellent range of amenities, which include a variety of shops, three pubs, a craft centre and a picturesque Railway Station. Cycle hire is available in the village's famous bike shop, whilst the whole area offers great walking opportunities for both those already keen on the sport and total beginners. The bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are both close by and have always been popular with visitors, providing a range of great facilities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips through the stunning landscape, the most well known of these being the ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. If boating takes your fancy, the 'Windermere Steamboat Museum' displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst those travelling with children will enjoy the 'World of Beatrix Potter' in nearby Bowness.

Guestbook for 753 - The Stables
We found the stables at Brunt Knott Farm very clean & relaxing, exactly what we where looking for and a great starting point for touring the rest of the area. We would certainly consider returning again.

,Warm and friendly owners. Wonderful location, secluded and quiet and the wildlife was excellent. Badgers, deer, chickens, sheep, cows, rabbits all there just by looking out of windows or walking the little lane outside the door and yet location was easy enough to visit all the popular tourist locations - Beatrice Potter's house, Lake Windermere etc. Our dogs loved it as much as we did. Lovely place.

,The location was fantastic and I don't think this is clear enough, in the details on the website, as to how good it is!
