There you'll find the perfect place to soak up the remote and unspoilt scenery for the first time.

Ambleside is just 4 miles away, and the ideal place to stop off and stock up the kitchen on your way. The vibrant village centre is also well worth a few day visits; lazing in cafes, visiting historic sites such as the roman fort, or strolling to the shores of Lake Windermere to take a lake cruise to Bowness or Lakeside. Ambleside tourist information centre is a useful port of call for walking routes, and there are plenty of expert outdoor stores where advice will be on hand.

You'll find a plethora of excellent Lake District country pubs in the Langdale Valley, serving locally brewed ale and hearty food. If you're looking for a special evening out, sample the Glass House in Ambleside or seek out the famous Drunken Duck Inn and Restaurant in Outgate.
