The village of Uldale sits in the lower slopes of the Caldbeck fells just a short drive from the northern end of Bassenthwaite Lake. The village is ideal for escaping day to day living, kicking back and taking in the peace and tranquillity that circumscribe the village allowing you to relax and recharge.
The area is an ideal base for exploring the northern Lake District away from the hustle and bustle of the main towns. Within less than half an hours drive there are numerous places for adventure including Dodd Wood with the Osprey Observation platform, Ashness Bridge, Surprise View, Bassenthwaite Lake, Whinlatter Forest, Go Ape, the Lake District Wildlife Park, Caldbeck, Cockermouth and Keswick ensuring you have plenty to see and do during your stay.
In the former school, Maes Tea Room and Art Gallery is perfect for leisurely coffees, delicious sweet treats and picking up souvenirs and original artwork from local artists.
