Come and explore the Eden Valley & Lake District
Sleeping up to five people, Number 3 Rivermead is an ideal base from which to explore the Eden Valley & Lake District. Set a mere four miles from the national park boundary, the village of Newton Reigny provides easy access to the most incredible landscapes in the country (although we are a little biased!) We’re only two miles from J41 of the M6 so perfectly-situated for stopovers en route to bonnie Scotland too.
About the Rooms
There are three bedrooms in the house, one of which is en-suite with shower. The remaining two rooms share a bathroom. Downstairs you’ll find a spacious living room, as well as a kitchen/dining room. To the back of the house is a small garden with outdoor seating for five people, if you fancy dining al fresco.

The Grasmere Gingerbread Shop
26 miles away, 40-min drive | Grasmere, LA22 9SW
There’s nothing like a bit of Grasmere gingerbread and a hot chocolate to warm you up on a frosty day. If you’re planning to pass through or near Grasmere, I’d highly recommend popping in to pick some up!

Lowther Castle & Gardens
8.5 miles away, 30-min drive | Lowther, CA10 2HH
There are lots of great walks that start and end at Lowther Castle, taking in the historic estate and parkland – it’s ideal for spotting native wildlife and taking some good photos as well.

Verified Jane was an amazing host. There was tea, coffee and milk for us to use. we even had a welcome basket with fresh bread, butter and biscuits. Had an amazing meal at the pub next door (I would highly recommend the steak and ale pie!!). There was everything you need in the kitchen to cook your own meals. The communication was great from the point of booking to our arrival and we would happily recommend and hopefully will return soon.
