🍽️ Close to local pubs & attractions The old farm buildings have been converted into seven specially designed holiday cottages now called Long Byres. Each cottage is self-contained, warm, (cent

rally heated, double glazed) with lovely views; some looking across the Lake District hills. The farm itself is home to sheep, native Exmoor ponies, chickens, ducks and guinea fowl. The golf course is only 1.5 miles away and Talkin Tarn is excellent for boating, coarse fishing and walking. Cycle hire is available locally, with many good routes across the fells on "green" roads. For those keen on discovering our Heritage Hadrian's Wall is a must. Situated next door to Geltsdale RSPB Reserve which is home to a small number of Black Grouse and other upland birds, you will find something for all the family at Long Byres.

These are just a few of examples of some of the great walks you can enjoy in the local area.

Six slow trail routes in Cumbria have been developed with parish councils, walking groups, and members of the community, as part of the Fellfoot Forward scheme. The differently accessible routes, which start and pass through villages, offer people the opportunity to take their time travelling in the landscape and learn about the area's heritage along the way.
Five existing high level walks have been updated and offer more challenging routes to some of the Cumbrian summits in the .
Each route has descriptions and interpretation, available in print at various outlets around the area, and also online: https://northpennines.org.uk/what_we_do/fellfoot-forward/slow-trails/

The Fellfoot Forward Landscape Partnership Scheme, 2020-24, was funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
