EAMONT BRIDGE SELF CATERING COTTAGE HOLIDAYS

Eamont Bridge self catering cottages are located in a pleasant village just outside the Cumbrian market town of Penrith. Unsurprisingly, the village lies at a bridging point over the river Eamont! The river is particularly fine for anglers, and there are pleasant walks along its banks too. Within walking distance is the giant standing stone of Mayburgh Henge, well worth seeing, and there a number of other nice footpaths that start virtually at the cottage door. As well as the convenience of nearby Penrith, Eamont Bridge self catering cottages are also right next to the historic Brougham Castle, and the arts and crafts outlets at Brougham Hall.

Visitors to Eamont Bridge holiday cottages are spoilt for choice when it comes to days out and activities. The Lake District is close by, with Ullswater just a short drive away. Vibrant Keswick is within easy reach, and shoppers can also get to historic Carlisle in under half an hour. Walkers are absolutely spoilt for choice. As well as the Lake District's mountains, the much less visited North Pennines are close - perfect for those who like to enjoy a wander through unspoilt countryside and feel like they have the landscape to themselves. The Eden Valley, with its attractive patchwork of green fields, sandstone villages and pretty churches is another area of beauty and interest that is not to be missed.

Should the Eamont Bridge accommodation be full, a number of other options are very close by, with lClifton self catering cottages, Brougham holiday cottages and of course self catering properties in Penrith all to choose from. This area combines convenience of location and transport links with the staggering array of options for days out, whether your main interest is walking, outdoor pursuits, history, shopping or culture - there really is something for everyone.
