If you have never been to the Lake District, everything for which it is justifiably famous can be found within about three miles of Rydal. Leave your car at the hotel and let your feet explore the almost unlimited range of paths from the doorstep. Gentle lakeside strolls or strenuous fell walks, off you go… Fine walks radiate in all directions, through the woods and along the famous Loughrigg terrace and up on to the high fells. You could stay a week and do a different classic walk every day from the doorstep! Grasmere is two miles up the road, and the gorgeous Langdale valley not much further. Jump on your bike or take a cruise then relax in a steaming hot bath. There is a fine choice of restaurants in nearby Ambleside, or shops for outdoor gear or cinemas for entertainment.
