The Lake District is home to red squirrels, too ~ keep a look-out ~ they're all around!


It's not far to visit the Solway Coast AONB, Caerlavrock Castle or the North Pennines

In fact, being based at the Brackenrigg you can explore a different landscape every day


Did you know that the local sheep are unique to this area?
You can buy insulation for lofts & walls made from their wool by a local firm


The Herdwick breed was championed for many years by Beatrix Potter
The tasty meat often features on our menus, too ~ food really can't get much more local
