The charming village of Braithwaite is set in a stunning location between the magnificent northern lakes of Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite. With whitewashed Lakeland cottages, two village shops and two real ale Inns, each brimming with character, the settlement has retained much of its traditional appeal and offers the added attraction of the Coledale Beck which runs through the village. The beautiful Newlands Valley is situated between Braithwaite and Buttermere, whilst picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw, walkers of all abilities are catered for in this diverse location. Visitors will enjoy a trip to Mirehouse - a grand house and gardens on the shores of the lake with an open-air theatre, as well as trips around the lake. Trotters Farm, Dodd Wood, Derwentwater, and Keswick are also within easy reach.
