Armathwaite, a charming, unspoiled rural community, is ideally situated for exploring the Lake District, Eden Valley, and the stunning Solway Firth shoreline. The community contains a post office, a local shop, and two historic pubs with popular restaurants providing top-notch food. The village's main thoroughfare, the River Eden, is known for its great salmon fishing as well as for walking, canoeing, and climbing. Beside the river is Armathwaite Castle, a four-story Pele Tower with beautiful stained glass windows in the church from the fifteenth century. One of Cumbria's best-kept secrets is the Eden Gorge, which is between Lazonby and Armathwaite and is definitely worth investigating. The neighborhood's train station is a stop on the Settle-to-Carlisle Railway, one of Britain's most picturesque rail routes, where numerous antique steam trains still wind through some of the country's most magnificent landscapes. The "biggest grass covered building in the country" is the Rheged Discovery Centre in Penrith. Instead, you might like visiting Dalemain Historic House, which was the setting for a Jane Eyre television adaptation.

Arrived to find no key, called up and waited 30 mins for the responsible person to bring a key (even tho they said they left the key the day before) then while me and family were out on our 2nd day there came back to find another car on the drive, a work man came and moved his car, said he had stayed there the week before and had booked it for the next 6 month, go into the caravan to find he had let himself in the caravan, spoke to the person responsible and granted she apologised and said he had mixed it up and was meant to be at another caravan this week, and that she would retrieve the key from him, to which we go out the next day and come back to find the caravan open and the key on the table, I get he was leaving the key but why not hand it into the warden or leave it in the lock box instead of entering the caravan and leaving it open, ruined the whole holiday as didnât know what was going to happen next, caravan has potential to be nice but needs looking at and sorted, all draws and cupboards are full with clutter and broken things, caravan wasnât the cleanest and would of over looked this had it not been for some1 else entering the caravan, also I know this has nothing to do with the owner but the kids play park is a death trap, the flooring is all uneven with lumps about a foot high, my child went in excited for the slide and fell and cut her knee before getting there

Wasnât clean at the the time of collection. For me it was the devil holiday⦠also the responsible lady was rude and not honest about what she is saying. I will summarise it with a few words âThey ruined my holidayâ
