Kirkby-in-Furness is a rural village in the Furness region of Cumbria and a short distance from Ulverston, the Dudden Estuary and the stunning western coastal regions. Being rural, the area is less busy than the central Lakes, and that comes with its own charm, especially if you're looking for a quieter getaway. We recommend you visit the two brilliant village pubs within easy walking distance. Also within walking distance, 3 miles along a coastal path, is Dunnerholme where you'll find a fantastic sandy beach and the nearby village of Askham--in-Furness. If you do fancy exploring further into the Lakes by car, the nearby A595 provides quick links to popular locations including: Coniston (12 Miles) where you'll find a great selection of pubs, cafes and walking routes including Coniston Old Man. For a scenic boat trip on Coniston Water then hop on board from the Coniston Launch. Ulverston (5 Miles) is a lovely market town with a labyrinth of cobbled streets and several shops, pubs and restaurants. Ulverston is the birthplace of Stan Laurel of Laurel & Hardy! A popular attraction is the Sir John Barrow Monument at the top of Hoad Hill. It's a short climb to the monument but the views are breathtaking on a clear day. Newby Bridge (12 Miles) is a small village at the southern tip of Lake Windermere. Here you will find the Lakes Aquarium and the Haverthwaite Stream Train. Alternatively, hop on board one of the Windermere Lake Cruise boats and sail north to Bowness, Brockhole or Ambleside. Another great way to explore the area is by train. Kirkby-in-Furness is a stop on the Cumbrian Coast Railway line that runs from Barrow to Carlisle, hugging the coast for most of the journey, stopping at stations including Ravelglass, where you can switch the La'al Ratty train into the Eskdale valley. You'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to staying at Kirkby-in-Funess - there is so much to see and do locally to make the most of your Lake District cottage...
