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.

Hawkshead Website



"Official website of the Hawkshead Traders Association"

Set in the magnificent Vale of Esthwaite in the heart of the English Lake District, Hawkshead is a truly historic and wonderfully picturesque village characterised by its cluster of whitewashed houses, archways and alleyways, courtyards and squares.

The centre of Hawkshead is closed to cars which enhances its character and makes wandering around its narrow winding streets especially rewarding.
