In the rural back-country, a few miles away from bustling Bowness, Birchmill Cottage sits in the lovely hamlet of Crook. Tucked down a peaceful country lane, this is the perfect spot to escape the world. The Winster and Lyth Valleys are green and picture-book pretty, garnished with gorgeous damson blossom in spring. Yet the many attractions of Bowness are close by at Birchmill, and with Ambleside and the central fells not far away, this is a great location from which to explore the Lakes. You will certainly want to spend a day cruising Lake Windermere on the famous steamers that frequent Bowness Pier. And closer to home, the Sun Inn at Crook, just a stroll away, has a growing reputation for its tasty fayre and selection of real ales. Not a bad way to wind down before bed after a day getting out and about in the beautiful Lake District!

A historic market town with a fine reputation for shopping, Kendal nestles on the banks of the River Kent and is known as the Southern Gateway to the Lakes. Its old cobbled lanes and byways branch off the attractive main street, and the stone ruins of 12th century Kendal Castle sit perched on a hill with views over the town. Visit The Abbot Hall Art Gallery, its regular collection holding portraits by Kendal born George Romney and works by Turner and Ruskin, with other exhibitions through its links with the Tate. Both Sizergh Castle and Levens Hall with its superb Topiary Garden are nearby, as are limestone escarpments for easy walking, offering thrilling views of the Lakeland Mountains, the Howgills and Morecambe Bay. Kendal itself is ideally placed for exploring South Lakeland, the Yorkshire Dales and beyond. With other attractions such as Kendal Museum and the Museum of Lakeland Life, the fascinating Quaker Tapestry, Lake Windermere and the wider National Park within easy reach, Kendal provides a superb base for a relaxing break.
