Celebrate the seasons at Eden Grove

The leaves are falling and the nights are drawing in. There’s a bite in the air. Summer is definitely behind us. But autumn is many people’s favourite time of the year. And there’s a good reason for that. Beautiful landscapes under stunning skies. That inimitable fresh smell in the air. And not just from your pumpkin spiced latte! If the change of seasons is getting you down, it’s because you haven’t taken the time to appreciate autumn. Maybe a few days in the countryside will change your perspective.

The Lake District is always a popular destination at this time of year. The lakes and fells take on a magical hue. There are hundreds of beautiful walks – from simple strolls to more challenging hikes. And plenty of warm and cosy pubs to wind up in. Purely for convenience, of course. So, get out in nature for a reviving walk. Then sit with a refreshing drink in front of a roaring fire. Even sun-loving sceptics will soon come round to the charms of the season.

The Lakes and more

The Lake District is also known for its picturesque towns and villages. There’s Grasmere with its historic church and legendary gingerbread. Hawkshead with its panoramic views and welcoming pubs. And Bowness for fish and chips overlooking Windermere. You’ll also find shops offering original work by local artists. Antiques and crafts galore. And, of course, home-made delicacies in quaint cafés and tea rooms. As the season rolls on, look out for Christmas markets too.

As lovely as the Lake District National Park is, there’s even more to the wider county of Cumbria. The Eden Valley, for example. Within easy reach of the Lakes, the valley is also handy for the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the North Pennines. But this little-known spot is well worth exploring in its own right. And there are plenty of gorgeous autumn walks to be had from Eden Grove in the heart of the valley.

Get cosy in Cumbria

This recent development, managed by Guestz, sits in the grounds of a former residential school. The stunning conversion is supplemented by brand new bungalows. So, there’s a variety of apartments, all beautifully designed with all mod cons. You could even have your own outdoor hot tub. Perfect for relaxing after a day in the country. And even cosier when the steam hits the cold evening air!

Eden Grove’s wide range of accommodation also makes it ideal for family gatherings. Perhaps even for a Christmas getaway for two or more families. The nearby village of Bolton has shops and a pub. And it’s not far at all to the charming town of Appleby. Or to Penrith, with its plentiful shops and restaurants and historic castle.
