INSIDE

OUTSIDE
The list is actually endless, but here's a few of our favourites ....
Hawkshead
A 20 min walk (or a 10 min run - i've tried!) downhill to the village, famous for its Wordsworth connections.
Hill Top
​
A short walk or drive to Beatrix Potter's home - and neighbouring pub, owned by the National Trust.
Moss Eccles Tarn
A short walk out through the back of Broomriggs takes you to this beautiful tarn - perfect for a spot of wild swimming.
High speed thrills
​
Grizedale Forest is just a 10 min drive away - hire bikes and explore the mountain biking trails or test your head for heights at Go Ape!
Gentler pursuits​
​
Broomriggs is set on the quieter side of the lakes, so it's perfect to go for a stroll, for a coffee in The Bluebird Café in Coniston, or to take a rowing boat out on Esthwaite Water.
The Old Man of Coniston
You can see the Old Man of Coniston from Broomriggs 5. And, on a clear day, you can see Broomriggs from the top of the Old Man of Coniston!
