This tiny community is made up of a row of houses from the 18th century, as well as a swimming pool, bars, stores, a Post Office, and a beautiful memorial park. Shap Abbey, which is located half a mile from the village core and is surrounded by a magnificent setting by the River Lowther, was last ruled by Henry VIII in 1540. The stunning Lake District National Park is close by, and the charming towns of Ambleside and Windermere are also accessible.

Super base for exploring the Lake District..

Just right for what we needed. Loved that frogs, newts, toads and red squirrels came with the house!
