Location: Kendal

Windermere 8 miles.

An historic Lakeland 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, Lake Windermere and the wider National Park within easy reach, Kendal provides a superb base for a relaxing break.

Cocks Close Cottages

Kendal 4 miles. Discreetly situated amidst 24 acres of secluded hill land in the unspoilt Longsleddale Valley, these three holiday cottages offer a relaxed, 'away from it all' atmosphere within the Lake District National Park, in the village of Garnett Bridge. Although the valley is very secluded and offers an ideal opportunity to get away from it all, Kendal, the thriving market town steeped in history, can be reached by car in only 10 minutes from these welcoming Garnett Bridge cottages. Windermere is nine miles to the west and the Yorkshire Dales National Park thirteen miles to the east, making these Garnett Bridge cottages an ideal centre for exploring the area. The valley itself is very peaceful and offers spectacular scenery, hill walking on Banninsdale and Potter Fell, and no holiday would be complete without the gentle walk to the valley top at Sadgill. These three properties comprise two Scandinavian style chalets and one riverside apartment, and they sit alongside the river Sprint, a tributary of the River Kent, which provides salmon and sea trout fishing in season. Trout fishing is also available in Cocks Close Lake, making these Garnett Bridge cottages an angler’s paradise. Perfect for a relaxing break, these Garnett Bridge cottages offer a peaceful setting to enjoy the picturesque scenery and local wildlife.

Borrowdale provided us with a comfortable and relaxing break. The location was lovely and peaceful and the chalet was well equipped and comfortable.
