The charming old village of Orton sits in a secluded position on the eastern fringe of the Lake District National Park. Along with its better-known neighbours of Kendal, Sedbergh and Appleby-in-Westmorland, the area is surrounded by lovely rolling countryside and beautiful scenery. Above the village sits Orton Scar, a limestone hill, used in days gone by to warn the village of Scottish raiders and popular today with walkers. The village centre has a local pub serving good food, a Post Office/shop, tearooms and the famous handmade chocolate shop and tearoom. A lovely village green surrounded by 17th and 18th Century cottages adds to its charm and there is a farmers’ market in the village square on the second Saturday of every month. Take a short drive and discover the unspoilt lake of Haweswater, or take advantage of the excellent road links to the Lake District, the Eden Valley and the Yorkshire Dales.

Previous visitors' comments about Lavender Cottage:
Fantastic modern fixtures and fittings within a gorgeous upside down traditional cottage. The en-suite wet room was amazing.
Mrs Bishop, Newry, September 2011
Excellent location in friendly village. Upside down cottage, with upstairs (kitchen and lounge) being of a very high standard.
Mrs McCafferty, Southampton, August 2011
The sofas were amazing. Natives very friendly! Local shop was very well stocked. The village was very pretty. General layout of the cottage (upside down) was great - plenty of light upstairs.
Ms Scott, Hereford, July 2011
Lovely location - would happily stay there again (and probably will!)
