Boiling in Brum. Sweltering in the South. Melting in the Midlands. Had enough of that hot weather over 25C? Remember when grass looked like, well, grass rather than straw? Well in Cumbria its still green and we have some of that wet stuff occasionally in the sky with temperatures a lot cooler at 20C! Well it is the Lake District. So why not book now at Shepherds View for a more relaxed and comfortable holiday - booking now available for September. Also the last week in August which includes the famous Fellside Royal Show Dufton Agricultural Show and Sheepdog Trials.
Photos show gardens in London and in Dufton!
Fabulous walk in the Howgills today. Start at Carlingill Bridge (CA10 3XX) and then a beautiful walk up the river following Carlin Gill to 'The Spout', a hidden gem. Returning back over Fell Head with views towards Morecambe and the Eastern Lake District Fells. Had the place to ourselves. Stunning!
Gorgeous - looks so peaceful! Just the place to get away from it all and spend a few days away indulging yourself with someone special!

Early bird new year offer
/in News /by Dufton BarnWith the turn of the year we are half way through our build.
Stairs are in, first fix on electrics, and walls shortly to be plastered. Jacuzzi bath arrives tomorrow and we are in the process of ordering some state of the art mood lighting from Collingwood. Consequently we are really excited about opening our door to our first guests in May and beyond.
If you would like to be one of the first we are offering an early bird discount off the listed price of 10% for any holiday between 1st May and 31st August 2018 provided you book before the end of February.
We are so confident you will like the finished design that there is no need to pay a deposit until we publish the finished photos in April, and you are free to cancel at any point. What have you got to lose?
