The nearby Ullswater, with its access points at Pooley Bridge and Glenridding, and the picturesque village of Mungrisdale add to the area's appeal. Guests can engage in a variety of outdoor activities, including golf, fishing, pony trekking, boating, and walking, from leisurely rambles to more challenging fell walks. For those preferring a more relaxed experience, Near Howe serves as an excellent base for touring the stunning Cumbrian countryside and enjoying the scenic beauty of the Lake District. Additionally, the properties can be booked together to accommodate larger groups of up to 30 guests, making it a versatile option for family or group gatherings.
