Gatebeck occupies the most splendid location. To the west lies the Lake District National Park, with its evocative fells, calm lakes and silent woodlands. It’s arguably England’s most picturesque spot, one that captures the heart with its beauty and provides endless outdoor adventures – like sailing across Ullswater or hiking over Catbells.
A short distance to the east of Gatebeck, the Yorkshire Dales features rolling green hillsides, heather-flecked mountains and picture-postcard hamlets. While to the south lies Arnside and Silverdale AONB with its spectacular coastal scenery. Kendal and its shopping arcades, tea rooms and restaurants is just a short drive away.
