The Local Area

Explore locally on foot

Walking down our driveway and turn left at the bottom to play in the Rowley Burn (our local stream) a hit with all children and adults alike. Nothing like a bit of water fun and a game of Pooh Sticks!

Walks from your door – Etti, who explored the area extensively last year while training for her Mont Blanc climb can provide maps detailing walks from 30 mins - 6 hours on request . 

Walking across the fell to Allendale for a cream tea or further across to stunning historic Blanchland are two of her favourite day routes.
