Visit to relatives who live in Kendal

10-15 mins drive to Kendal so easy to get there on major road. Well equipped accommodation. Good views across valley. Parking on site good.plenty of hot water and underfloor heating. Coarse fishing lake on site which wasn’t particularly advertised beforehand, or I may have brought some of my fishing gear!

Ein sehr erholsames Umfeld

Die Ferienwohnung liegt auf einer Farm, auf der zahlreiche Tiere (Hühner, Pfauen, Ziegen) frei herumlaufen. Die Gegend ist wunderschön mit den Hügeln, den Seen sowie den vielen Schafsweiden. Es ist ein sehr ruhiges und erholsames Umfeld. Neben Besuchen im Lake District haben wir auch einige historische Sehenswürdigkeiten besichtigt. Insgesamt war es ein toller Urlaub.
