Starnthwaite Ghyll is about a mile from the village of Crosthwaite. Overlooking the river, this handsome building was once a thriving mill. Today it provides a place for those who seek true peace and relaxation.

The shared grounds are beautifully kept, with trees and ornamental shrubs. A formal garden spills down to the little river bank where guests may sit and relax, or you can venture off along the river path and find your own perfect spot to picnic and paddle.

The Lythe Valley lies west from Lake Windermere. A sun drenched plain, flanked by low rolling fell and woodland, it is a patchwork of meadows and orchards, criss crossed with narrow winding lanes that pass through farm land, by woodland and over rivers and becks, perfect for walks and cycling.

Nearby, about a mile, is the little village of Crosthwaite, where you will find much vaunted Punch Bowl Inn, renowned for its cuisine and a most pleasing place to dine

A shortish car ride brings you to the foot of Windermere, where you can spend a day at Fell Foot park mucking about in and on the water. Head south onto the peninsular and you can explore the coast line and pick up Cumbria's section of the coastal way.

Not to be left out is Kendal. Well worth a visit for its shops, also the many restaurants and the thriving art scene, with the Brewery Arts Centre offering live gigs, theatre and cinema, also the Abbott Hall Art Gallery which hosts many fine and changing art exhibitions.
