Area
Grange, otherwise known as Grange in Borrowdale, is a picturesque hamlet a very short distance from Derwentwater. The hamlet is reached via a famous double-humped bridge over the River Derwent, the beautiful outlet of Derwentwater itself. ‘Grange’ means ‘outlying farm belonging to a monastery’, and indeed Grange’s history dates back to medieval times when the monks of Furness Abbey owned the land here. The hamlet has grown little since then, and remains a cluster of cottages, several farms and two tea shops. A short distance away is Keswick, one of the Lake District's most popular destinations. This friendly town hosts the very popular twice weekly market that has recently won the coveted 'Best Outdoor Market' in the Great British Market Awards. The village also offers a fantastic array of shops offering everything from craft bakeries and local produce, antiques, crafts and much, much more.
