A 'stopover day' returning home from Scotland Sunday 18 September 2005

We stayed at Borwick Lodge which is set in the heart of the English Lake District in a delightful and tranquil setting
 


Borwick Lodge
Borwick Lodge is a rather special 17th century country residence of charm and character pleasantly secluded within 3 acres of beautiful landscaped gardens, surrounded by fields and fells in an area of outstanding natural beauty in all seasons. There is ample parking within the grounds where the car can be forsaken for one of a number of short walks, including the famous Tarn Hows, where magnificent views are there for the taking in return for a little gentle exercise; the more adventurous might like to explore the higher fells in the Coniston area which are within easy access.

Borwick Lodge is no longer trading as a guest house
