Beech Hill Walking
Walking in the Lake District is one of the most popular pursuits of visitors to this beautiful part of England. Whether serious rambler, climbing enthusiast or just like a gentle amble or two, there are Lake District walks to suit every age and ability.
The largest and most popular of the lakes is Lake Windermere. The lakeside town of Bowness-on-Windermere has a delightful selection of outdoor pursuit and sporting shops to ensure that whatever the walk – and walking is irresistible here – you will be able to kit yourself out with the appropriate gear.
If you are staying a few days to explore the area and choosing a Windermere hotel, a central and most tranquil one to be based at, is 4 star, The Beech Hill Hotel. Of hotels in Windermere it offers arguably, the most spectacular view of Lake Windermere, with the majestic peak of Coniston Old Man perfectly framed for viewing from its extensive terrace, lounge and restaurant. Its welcoming ambience embraces you the moment you walk in the door and if you are going to be walking in Windermere, at least ensure you return to a place where you will be pampered and spoiled!
From here you will be able to enjoy Windermere walks, following the lake around to the nearby village of Bowness-on-Windermere, exploring east to south of the lake or heading inland for a gentle climb to a viewing spot that will provide you with a commanding view of the lake and its surrounding landscape.
You can walk for as little as a mile along paths through leafy lanes to reach the nearby view point Orrest Head from where you can see Lake Windermere and each of the key surrounding peaks. If you are a more accomplished walker, there are pleasant walks of up to 9 hours – these walks are strenuous in part but worth the reward of dramatic views, waterfalls and ambling through ancient woodlands.
All manner of walking in Windermere can be done from The Beech Hill hotel. Best of all, at the end of the day, you can look forward to a delicious Cumbrian Afternoon Tea, to be enjoyed by the lakeside in summer or in the lounge with its magnificent views year round. In the cooler months of the year, you can return to a roaring log fire and sip a hot chocolate whilst you admire the autumn and winter backdrop over Lake Windermere.
The staff at the hotel is a very friendly team and all are more than happy to recommend their favourite walks and best vantage points for admiring the magnificent scenery that surrounds you. They are very good at what they do and will go out of their way to ensure your stay is comfortable and relaxing. Most of the hotel’s delightful bedrooms offer a lake view and it has an indoor swimming pool so that you can exercise more than just your legs!
The highlight besides the beautiful scenery and wonderful walking – dinner at The Beech Hill or is it the hearty Cumbrian breakfast that will set you up for the day……tough choice as both are superb. A stay at The Beech Hill hotel while enjoying a walking holiday in the Lake District – it’s a perfectly winning combination.
