Renowned for a range of outdoor activities from canoeing and rock climbing to fell-walking, this area has something for everyone. With a wealth of walking and cycling routes nearby, you don’t need to venture far, but should you want to explore, visit picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake (6 miles) with its nesting ospreys, or Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to the north. Adventure capital, Keswick, is 17.5 miles away on the shores of Derwentwater, and offers a range of shops and independent eateries.
