One of the best things about Neaum Crag is the number of red squirrels in the area and guests always comment on how amazing it was to be able to catch a glimpse of one.

The property also has access to the onsite swimming pool, games room and laundry all located just a short walk from Blackbeck Tarn. Open daily from 1st March - 15th November.

Blackbeck Tarn is a great option for families or couples looking for their next holiday in the Lake District and with it being just a 5-minute drive from Ambleside it makes a great base for exploring most of the Lake District’s attractions. We recommend heading through to Windermere and parking up near Windermere train station and walking across the road to the start of the Orrest Head walk, although one of the smaller walks in the Lake District it still offers commanding views right across Lake Windermere and takes about 30 minutes to reach the top. You might want to spend a while longer when reaching the top as the views as simply breathtaking. Once back down you should take a walk to Homeground coffee and kitchen café, which servers some of the most scrumptious cakes and has a fabulous lunch menu.
