Local attractions

The first place to visit here is of course Rydal Hall itself – you can’t go inside the house itself, but there’s so much to enjoy outdoors including the Quiet Garden, the Grot (framing views of Rydal Falls), the labyrinth and tea room. There are more splendid buildings and gardens to take in as you tour the area too – perhaps you’d like to see the neo-gothic Wray Castle (15 minutes’ drive), see where Beatrix Potter lived at Hill Top (20 minutes) or stroll through artist John Ruskin’s former home at Brantwood (25 minutes)? Wilder landscapes and outdoor activities galore are all around too: take a walk up to Rydal Cave (half an hour on foot) or Stock Ghyll Force (45 minutes), take a cruise from Ambleside (five minutes’ drive), go fishing at Esthwaite (20 minutes), get up unto the trees at Go Ape (25 minutes), scale Scafell Pike (half an hour)…
