Explore the Western Fells with its dramatic scenery or ramble by the riverside and finish off with a real ale in the village pubs.

I have lived in the village since I was 13 and my son Jamie all his life, he bought the disused Bakery after we sadly lost the Baker after 25 years of trading and renovated the building into 2 cottages , Bakers Cottage is next door and also set up as a holiday let, Jamie races Motocross as a profession and between us we host the cottages as well as running the family Pest Control & Training business. with my husband Mike . The village has a new bakery which is lovely for the villagers. Not too much time for hobbies, but food & drink, walking, family time and following Jamie racing all around the UK and Europe.

Our village is elevated but runs along side the River Derwent with is fabulouse scenery , so long riverside rambles are a must and as we have 5 village public houses, so refreshments of selected gins and real ales with the bonus of Sky Sports in the Legion. A delightful village bakery will tempt your taste buds and the local post office will help with all things business /travel related and with a off licence too. Broughton Craggs Country House hotel is a short walk and Carvery nights Thurs/Sun and their afternoon teas are delicious. Drive 2 miles into Cockermouth and visit William Wordsworth , National Trust Property, the Local Jennings brewery and we have a distillery near too , you will never be short of beautiful restaurants to dine in and breath taking scenery. A walk around the shores of Buttermere is spectacular only 7 miles away., & Wainwright has 214 walks mapped out which is a fantastic way to learn about the lakes.
