| NEWTOWN
HOLIDAY COTTAGE

Newtown House boasts impressively high ceilings and
many original Georgian features. Just a mile and a half away, past
a ruined Roman bath house, is the village of Ravenglass, a Roman
port and favoured destination of smugglers. An isolated beach cove
at the end of the drive is the perfect place for a picnic and there
are miles of country walks to be enjoyed direct from the door.

Sunset at Ravenglass
Ravenglass
is a wonderful starting point for exploring the Lake District with
plenty of walks either along the coast or over Muncaster fell to
Eskdale and the mountains
beyond. It is also the starting point for the famous Ravenglass
& Eskdale Steam Miniature Railway which makes a leisurely
seven mile trip to the Eskdale Valley.

Burnmoor Stone Circle at Nearby Eskdale
There are two pubs in the village and also the Pennington
Hotel & Restaurant which is open to non-residents (all are around
25 mins walk away). The village shop and post office sells a variety
of food and newspapers and the Old
Butchers Shop now sells gifts and crafts, as well as a comprehensive
range of maps and guides. There is some reception for mobile phones
on the Orange and Vodaphone network.
