The gentle pace of life? The feeling of being at one with nature, with sheep in the fields, buzzards in the sky, and herons on the stream running through the orchard? The way children can just go out to play, on the rafts? The ease of walking the dog, with all that space around? The miniature railway, the famous 'Ratty', whose steam engines trundle through the farmland? Maybe just the stunning scenery?

Whatever it is it's a very real feeling, of peace and tranquillity providing the perfect place to relax on holiday.

Fisherground Lodges offer self catering accommodation in the heart of Eskdale, one of the quieter and most beautiful valleys in the Lake District.

With a large sunny outdoor area and fantastic views of the surrounding fells, Fisherground is an ideal base for exploring the awesome mountains, rivers and lakes in the area.
Fisherground is a wonderful starting point for hundreds of walks, either on the fells or along the banks of the River Esk, with tumbling waterfalls and magnificent clear pools to swim in.

For the more adventurous, we have links with the local lake district outdoor activity specialist and can help you organise guided walks, rock climbing, ghyll scrambling, kayaking etc.

The famous Ravenglass & Eskdale Miniature Railway runs along the valley, its steam trains making the leisurely seven-mile journey down to Ravenglass a picturesque old fishing village with a ruined Roman bath house and Muncaster Castle nearby.

Scafell Pike, Englands highest mountain can be climbed from Eskdale.
