Kirkby Lonsdale 7 miles; Kendal 12 miles.
A small, traditional Cumbrian village set in beautiful countryside and ideally placed for exploring Southern Lakeland, the Yorkshire Dales and the peaceful Forest of Bowland. The village has a Post Office/general store, a butcher and a pub that serves good food. It lies 7 miles from the lovely old market town of Kirkby Lonsdale, and 12 miles from Kendal, the gateway to the Lake District. There is easy access to many areas of interest; the historic city of Lancaster, the seaside resorts of Morecambe and Blackpool are all within easy reach. The acclaimed RSPB wildfowl reserve of Leighton Moss is only 4 miles away, while Morecambe Bay is also famous for birdwatching. Other locations well worth a visit are the villages of Silverdale and Arnside (overlooking the beautiful Kent Estuary), Ingleton, Settle and Clapham. Levens Hall (famous topiary) and medieval Sizergh Castle with a beautiful garden are nearby. Good pubs and restaurants abound in the area. There is plenty of good walking nearby, and golf, fishing and riding are all available locally.

Lovely views and very peaceful.
Mrs Reed, Warrington, November 2011
The location was idyllic and the views were fantastic. We loved the well equipped kitchen/ diner and the log burner was very cosy.
Miss Wellings, Whitley Bay, October 2011
This was our second stay at 'Wharf Cottage'. It is a superb cottage in a perfect location. We will try to book again in the future.
Mr Taylor, Hunstanton, October 2011
Well it was that good we have booked for 2012! So peaceful, with everything we needed. On the whole, what a cottage. The children loved helping with the chickens and duck and they were rewarded with eggs!
The cottage is in a great place to reach everywhere, just a short drive to other places. The views were amazing and the dog was free in the grounds.
