Just a hop, skip and jump away from the Lake District, you’ll find the town of Kendall sitting on the South of the district. With six miles between the town and the popular region, it’s a great place to hold base for your activities.

With a bunch of the classic outdoor activities that the Lake District is known for as well as experiences that can come to your office, restaurants for meals and a few quaint pubs for an after-activity drink, you can organise a complete away day here in this inconspicuous town.
