The cottages are set in the heart of Caldbeck Common in the Northern Lake District. This is ideal walkers country with a good mix of easy rambling or hiking up Blencathra or Skiddaw. (On the left are our cottages!)

For the less energetic, the gently rolling countryside is beautiful for a stroll setting the scene for amazing sunsets and sunrises. Nearby are the lovely villages of Caldbeck and Uldale where you can dine & shop.

In John Peel Country, Caldbeck is a pretty and peaceful village with a collection of restaurants, cafes, antique shops, a goldsmith and clogmaker!

The bustling market town of Keswick is only 14 miles away (and a lovely drive!) with its theatre, shops, cinema, restaurants and galleries. Cockermouth (the poet Wordsworth's birthplace) is also 14 miles and the border city of Carlisle is only 16 miles North with Hadrian's Wall being only a few miles further.
