Decorated For ChristmasDecorated For ChristmasCaldbeck nestles in the northern Lake District at the back of Skiddaw, hence the locals calling the area ‘Back o’ Skiddaw’, with the towering mountain separating Keswick from Caldbeck. Caldbeck is a picturesque, traditional Lakeland fell village with duck pond, village inn serving locally sourced food and ales and a coffee shop offering afternoon teas and a range of delicious ice creams. John Peel, the famous huntsman of the 1700’s was born just outside of Caldbeck and the area maintains many links to his hunting heritage with the village church being his final resting place. The Caldbeck fells offer walkers the opportunity to explore the less frequented parts of the Lake District but still promises stunning vistas, Bassenthwaite Lake and Derwentwater along with the Solway Coast are just a few of the views you can expect to see on your adventures. Hesket Newmarket and Uldale are both within a 10 minute drive and have their own village inns and Bassenthwaite and Lake Ullswater are both a 20 minute drive. Caldbeck is a short drive from Carlisle, Penrith and Keswick for those who enjoy retail therapy and is the perfect base from which to explore the northern Lake District, Eden Valley and Hadrian’s Wall.
