The Eden Valley is perfectly placed for exploring the Howgills, Pennines and the Lakeland Fells.
In the surrounding area there are countless walks in limestone country - Orton and Great Asby Scars, Sunbiggan Tarn, High Cup Nick and Smardale Nature Reserve to name just a few.
If gardens and historic houses are your thing, you will find Holker Hall, Levens, Sizergh Castle, Holehird, Daleman and Mirehouse all within easy reach.
The forests and lakes of Cumbria are less than an hours drive - Grizedale, Whinlatter and Dodd, Haweswater, Ullswater, Windermere, Thirlmere and Derwent Water.
The surrounding area is rich in wildlife with regular visits from buzzards, curlews, lapwings, oyster catchers etc.
There are golden eagles at Haweswater, ospreys at Bassenthwaite and Lowther Bird of Prey centre is just a few miles away.
Roe deer frequent the area and if you are lucky , you may even catch a glimpse of a red squirrel!.
There are so many places to eat and drink, you will be spoilt for choice but here are a few favourites,
The Butchers Arms at Crosby Ravensworth ( our local - 1 mile away),The Queens Head in Tirrill, The George in Orton, The Royal Oak in Appleby.
For lunch or just a snack, choose from Kennedys Chocolate shop and tearoom at Orton (well worth a visit),
Larch Cottage Nurseries at Melkinthorpe, Low Sizergh Farm shop near Kendal, George Fishers in Kendal and the Visitor Centre at Grizedale Forest.
Maulds Meaburn has its own website - www.mauldy.supanet.com if you would like to see more of the village.
