Skelwith
Bridge is home to Chesters, an interesting and
innovative lifestyle store. Great for browsing.
At the same location is their restaurant, which
serves high class lunches and snacks. It has
riverside decking and wonderfully sinful cakes. |
|
| The
Skelwith Bridge Hotel provides bar meals by a log
fire, ideal when you want a break from cooking,
or a 5 course dinner in the elegant surroundings
of their restaurant. Just right for a special
treat. The hotel is only a short stroll from
Little Greenbank. |

Greenbank is in a perfect location for exploring the
area. there are five directions to choose from radiating
from your doorstep at Skelwith Bridge! |

LANGDALE
The
most beautiful valley in the Lakes (but we are
prejudiced). Drive the circuit of Great and
Little Langdale, and see the stunning Langdale
Pikes.

AMBLESIDE
Ambleside
with its shops, restaurants, cinema and other
amenities is only two and a half miles away from

stores, enjoy the Armitt museum and much more.

the narrow windy lane to historic Hawkshead. The
narrow streets and alleyways are a delight to
explore. See the Beatrix Potter Gallery or,
