Quiet times!
We sit just two miles from the southern shores of Lake Windermere. Our family-run park spans 10 acres of woodland beneath surrounding fells.
You can enjoy views across the Southern Fells and nearby estuaries. From here, you can easily explore both the central Lake District and Furness Peninsula. You will also find outdoor activities nearby, including walking, climbing, biking, and water sports.
Local attractions & days out
You can explore a wide range of attractions, from villages to popular visitor sites. Visit Holker Hall and Levens Hall for historic homes and gardens. You can also visit museums in nearby Finsthwaite. Other highlights include the World of Beatrix Potter and the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway. You can also take a scenic cruise across Lake Windermere between Lakeside, Bowness, and Ambleside.
Nearby towns & amenities
A number of towns and villages are within easy reach of the park. Grange-over-Sands lies just a few miles to the south, while the village of Cartmel is known for its historic priory, Michelin starred dining at L’Enclume, small independent shops and cosy pubs.
Outdoor enthusiasts can explore nearby walking trails across the rolling countryside or venture to the edge of the Lake District National Park for scenic hikes. The nearby towns of Ulverston and Bowness-on-Windermere offer a wider range of facilities, including shops, cinemas, and leisure amenities such as indoor swimming pools, tennis courts, and bowling greens.
Local food & produce
There are plenty of options for eating out nearby, with a range of inns and restaurants serving both local specialities and more traditional dishes. Regional favourites such as Cumberland sausage and the well-known sticky toffee pudding from the Cartmel Village Shop are popular choices.
In addition, several farm shops in the area offer locally sourced meat and produce.
Wildlife & natural surroundings
Set within woodland and backed by a steep fell, the park provides a natural habitat for a variety of wildlife. It is not uncommon to see squirrels, foxes, and both roe and red deer in the surrounding area, with badgers occasionally spotted by those up early enough.
The setting offers a quiet, nature-focused environment throughout the year.
