You will find few places that will give such a deep sense of the power and beauty of Lakelands landscape as the Tent Lodge Estate. Steeped in historical connections it has been home and inspiration to such poets, writers and artists as Turner, Arthur Ransome and Lord Alfred Tennyson. Today the Estate offers a selection of holiday homes and cottages to suit all party sizes, set in one of the finest locations in the central Lake District. Here, each cottage is a short distance from the private waters edge, where the view is filled by the high peaks of Coniston’s mountain range, reflected in deep waters. |

| The Estate lies at the north east head of Coniston Water, the properties and grounds set a little above the lake, where a twenty acre meadow sweeps down to the waters edge. There are three jetties which at, for a small fee, guests may moor their own boats or hire rowing, sailing or powered boats from the Coniston Boating Centre.With eight hundred yards of shore line to explore and the whole lake to muck about on, in and by, you have the ideal recipe for the perfect Lakeland holiday. The village of Coniston lies about a mile and half around the lake, offering shops, cafes and a number of good pubs serving locally brewed ale. From the village, tracks lead up through the old coppermines valley and to the foot of Coniston Old Man, where the hearty can make an attempt to the 2635 ft summit and view never to be forgotten. Tinkler Beck Cottage Tinkler Beck Cottage, adjoining Tinkler Beck Farm, is situated on the west side of the lane of the Estate. Set around a main central courtyard shared by three other cottages, each enjoy a fabulous position close to the lake and the estates private shoreline.
