Our Guests, new and returning, will enjoy a friendly welcome, comfortable ensuite rooms, hearty breakfasts, seasonal log fires and the security of off-road parking for five cars on the forecourt, with more parking facilities in front of the adjoining barn.

From our front door, without having to drive anywhere, guests can walk, cycle or horseride (nearby Grizedale Riding Centre -- see MENU Grizedale Activities) along the pleasant lanes and numerous trails over miles of rolling forest and fell. For the keen mountain biker the Forest Centre also provides custom-designed adventure trails, like The North Face (MENU Grizedale Activities).
Many points offer superb views of Coniston, Langdale and the Central Lakes ranges, and there is an abundance of animal and bird life.

Taking the visitor on a panoramic walk round all Grizedale, the longest of the trails, The Silurian Way, can be joined from our front gate. By way of other nearby trails, there are walks to three lakes – Esthwaite Water, Coniston Water, and Windermere. John Ruskin’s Brantwood and Beatrix Potter’s Hilltop at Near Sawrey are not far, and a short lovely walk from our door brings you to the rocky outcrop of Rusland Church, with Arthur Ransome’s grave. Another route leads to the National Nature Reserve, Rusland Moss.
