With it's old world atmosphere and status of England's Book
Town, Sedbergh's cobbled
streets and secret alleys
are set in Cumbria at the bottom of the Howgills and in the vast Western
Dales of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and South Lake District.
Dwarfed by the rugged
Eastern Fells and
the magnificent Howgills of the picturesque Lake District and Yorkshire
Dales National Park,
the scenery
and activities to be found in Sedbergh makes this town like
nowhere else.
With the possibilities of Walking, Climbing, Cycling, Fishing, Horse Riding,
Pony Treking, Golfing and hiring an open top sports car,
what more could you want from a country town? Especially with Kendal
and Lake
Windermere just a stones throw away.
