If you can bear to leave...

Potter around nearby Greystoke village: visit its legendary castle; take tea in the walled garden of the Cycle Café or sample a local brew in The Boot and Shoe. Aira Force and Ullswater Lake are minutes’ drive away for rambles, steamboat jaunts and water sports.

If the limitless supply of natural wonders begin to pall, recharge your adrenalin with quad biking, clay pigeon shooting or boating on Ullswater. Add elegance to the mix with an evening at Keswick’s Theatre by the Lake or a dine at one of Cumbria’s many Michelin starred pubs and restaurants.

Outside of London, Cumbria is the country with the most Michelin starred restaurants including Allium Askham Hall, Cedar Tree Brampton, Cottage in the Wood Braithwate, Dog and Gun Inn Skelton, Forest Side Grasmere, Heft Newton in Cartmel, Lake Road Kitchen Ambleside, L’Enclume Cartmel, Pentonbridge Inn Penton, Rogan & Co Cartmel, Source Bowness on Windermere and The Samling Ambleside.
