Leisure facilities are available
The Lake District is a favourite spot for those who enjoy the outdoors, with activities including walking, climbing, waterskiing, sailing and cycling. Coniston Water, with the 'Old Man' towering above at 803m, offers a variety of lake activities, as well as excellent walking to suit all abilities. For those who prefer a more gentle pace, there are lake cruises and a wealth of historic houses to visit, such as Dove Cottage and Rydal Mount at nearby Grasmere, both former homes of Wordsworth, and Beatrix Potter's home at Sawrey, inspiration for many of the characters in her enchanting children's books. Brantwood, John Ruskin's home, above Coniston Water, offers you an insight into the life of this influential writer.
