Off the beaten track, our 16th Century farmhouse has lake frontage, stunning views and oodles of character. Relax and unwind in comfortable surroundings, we provide breakfast/lunch & dinner and plenty of activities from kayaking and mountain biking. The space Idyllic for romantic getaways for two, small family adventures, or a base for a large group of friends and families. Whether you are travelling alone or part as a group, we are a one stop shop giving you the chance to relax and get on with unwinding - time to sleep, eat and play! Our farm (Bank Ground) known as Holly Howe in Arthur Ransome's famous children's book Swallows and Amazons, is the perfect location for a break - B&B and self catering cottages (sleeping up to 60). Guest access With private lake frontage and sensational views, we offer lovely walks on the farm, but should you wish to venture further a field then hire a rowing boat or kayak and have a paddle on the lake right here from the farm. Or hire a mountain bike (trailer available also) and explore Grizedale forest - UK's most famous mountain biking area that is right on our door step! Other things to note We are a family run business and have excellent staff and chefs, we provide an uncommercial unique friendly environment where you will make memories and friends for a lifetime.
