Lyth Valley cottages
Famed for its bountiful orchards and rolling emerald hillsides,
the Lyth Valley is an unspoilt haven tucked away in a forgotten
corner of Cumbria. Surprisingly, the valley has gone virtually
unnoticed for decades, making it the perfect destination for a
peaceful and secluded cottage holiday in the Lake District.
Discover the beauty of Cumbria with a Lyth Valley holiday
cottage
Step from the door of your Lyth Valley cottage and discover one
of Cumbria's prettiest dells; a place where trees teem with
fruit and the horizon is peppered with undulating hills. Recently,
Lonely Planet placed Lyth Valley alongside other
internationally renowned beauty spots in their book 'Beautiful
World' - book a holiday cottage here, and you'll see
why.
Without doubt, one of the best times to plan your visit to the
Lyth Valley is in early Spring, when clouds of white blossom hang
in the Damson trees, and locals celebrate the arrival of this
plum-like fruit by hosting Damson Day- a popular event which sees
local producers and growers crafting all kinds of delicious Lyth
Valley Damson recipes. These fruity festivities usually occur in
mid-April, so consider booking your cottage in the Lyth Valley
around this time to join in the fun!
Thought you'd seen all the beauty that Cumbria had to offer?
Think again. The Lyth Valley may not be the most popular
destination in the Lake District, but it's certainly one of the
prettiest. Take a walk along the ancient pathways that connect the
villages of Bowland Bride, Crosthwaite and Underbarrow. Hike to the
summit of Gummer's How to revel in the views of Windermere and Cartmel. Set sail on
the waters of Fell Foot Park or enjoy a traditional Cumberland
sausage in the village of Brigsteer. With so much to do in the Lyth
Valley, it's a wonder the place isn't crawling with
tourists- discover it before everyone else with a self-catering
holiday from Sykes Cottages.
