Shepherd's Rest is a cottage near Carlisle in Cumbria, sleeping five and ideal for families or groups wanting a base close to the Lakes. Being near a train station is a real plus, and Staveley station is just half a mile away, making it easy to explore without relying on the car. For something to eat, Mr Duffins Coffee and The Artisan Bakery are both a short walk from the cottage. Museum fans are well served too, with From Auschwitz to Ambleside, The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, and Windermere Jetty all within a few miles. When the weather's kind, Windermere, Rayrigg Meadow beach offers excellent water quality and is a lovely spot for a dip or a lakeside wander.
