Hollows Farm itself is a 300-acre working hill farm, owned by the National Trust and run by Gavin and Laura Fearon. It is surrounded by some of the most stunning scenery, nestled at the foot of Maiden Moor and is hidden away behind the picturesque Grange village. Grange itself being one of several small hamlets in the beautiful Borrowdale valley, which is in the heart of the northern lakes.

The accommodation, all tastefully furnished, has three double rooms all with central heating and scenic views. Two of the bedrooms are en-suite and the third has separate private facilities.

warm and friendly welcome awaits you at this traditional 17'" century farmhouse, often being described as "home from home". There is a guest's lounge with a tea and coffee tray T.V, books to browse through and a log fire for those cooler evenings. Start the day with a hearty Aga cooked breakfast including local delicacies Cumberland sausage, something lighter or vegetarian also available. Packed lunches and flasks filled available on request. An early evening meal is available in Grange village 1/2 mile, a nice walk away or there are several pubs and hotels for bar meals a short drive away.

Local Attractions

Borrowdale is one of the best places in the country for outdoor activities including walking, climbing, mountain biking, sailing, canoeing, wind surfing & Paragliding, to name but a few! Indeed the sport of rock climbing spent its infancy on the crags of Borrowdale with the first routes being put up in the 1890's, since then development has continued apace with Borrowdale now boasting hundreds of climbs, from beginners routes to the more cutting edge extreme routes of today. For those who like a more leisurely pace then there is fishing or birdwatching, and beautiful scenery to photograph, paint - or to simply enjoy!

There are many walks straight from the front door, including the popular Catbells with amazing views from the top over Derwentwater and the Newlands valley. Skiddaw and the other highest mountains in England (Helvellyn, Great Gable and Scafell) are close by for the more adventurous. Plus many less strenuous walks around the valley to enjoy with plenty of lovely views to take in. For a lazy day walk to the shore of Derwentwater (1 1/2 miles), then pick up a launch, relax and have a trip round the lake.

You can even stop on route at the historical market town of Keswick for a browse around its many shops. Also a regular bus service from Keswick on the opened top Borrowdale bus. Fishing licences and permits are available from the Keswick Tourist Information Centre. Keswick's brand new Theatre by the Lake is ideally situated close to Derwentwater. The Theatre offers a programme of arts and entertainment throughout the year. There is a coffee shop and fully licensed bars.
