Somerset House is situated in the centre of the tranquil Edwardian resort of Grange over Sands, on the tip of the Cartmel Peninsula, with its charming independent shops, famous cafes, fragrant parks and gardens. A mile long promenade overlooks the sandy expanse of Morecambe Bay. The piping call of the Oystercatcher the bubbling song of of the Skylark and the springtime Purple Orchid are icons of this stunning limestone country.
CONNECTIONS
15 minutes from Windermere lake, 20 minutes drive from M6 junction 36 and with a direct frequent rail service to the main line at Lancaster, Manchester and Manchester Airport, Somerset House is a perfect and much quieter base for exploring southern Lakeland. Even better forget the car and take a stroll straight from our front door up to the top of Hampsfell [45 minutes] and experience panoramic views over the north Pennines to the Yorkshire Dales and northwards, across the dramatic mountain and lake scenery of Cumbria.
