Tarn
Hows |
|
 |
"Calm
& tranquil"
If ever
there was a competition for the most popular Lakeland beauty
spot Tarn Hows
would probably be the winner.
It is easy to see why, and this
pretty tarn, enclosed by low and craggy hills, and surrounded by
mixed woodland, meadow and scrub, encapsulates all that is so
attractive about the Lakes.
