The ancient market town of Ulverston still holds a street market every Thursday and Saturday. Today it’s well known as a festival town with events throughout the year, including walking and art festivals in the summer months and the renowned Dickensian festival in late November. One of the town’s great claims to fame is as the birthplace of Stan Laurel - it is now home to the only Laurel and Hardy museum in the world! Facilities include a wide range of shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs, a cinema and a leisure centre. Whilst many Lakeland destinations have been developed beyond recognition, Ulverston still has an authentic feel and community spirit. All of the attractions of the National Park are easily reached. The Furness Coast boasts sandy beaches and good birdwatching. Nearby family attractions include the South Lakes Wild Animal Park, Birkrigg Common's Stone Circle, Morecambe Bay and Lakes Windermere and Coniston.

Previous visitors' comments about The Purple House:
An excellent location - we were lucky enough to have booked during the town's Dickensian Christmas Festival weekend and felt at the heart of things, without being in a particularly noisy area. The house was easy to keep warm and we thought the artist/owner's decorated pieces and pictures (especially the living room door) were really interesting and lovely.
Excellent wood burner, very easy to 'get going'. Very straight forward key collection, very helpful caretaker and available parking. Good recycling facilities.
