Monks Bridge, Crosby Ravensworth, Cumbria A gorgeous holiday cottage in beautiful Cumbria. Located in the Eden Valley in part of the Yorkshire

Monks Bridge is a gorgeous holiday cottage situated on the edge of the village of Crosby Ravensworth, Cumbria. Originally built as the village school, it has been tastefully coverted and extended over time into the charming cottage you see today. Comfortably sleeping 5 and full of character, Monks Bridge takes its name from the bridge over the River Lyvennet, next to the cottage. Crosby Ravenswort

h is a delightful Cumbrian village with a community owned pub serving great food and drink, within easy walking distance. Now located within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, there are plenty of beautiful walks straight from the door and the Lake District and Pennines are both within half an hour drive, if you want to explore further afield. Monks Bridge has been in our family for over 20 years and we are delighted to continue the family connection. Over time it has been lovingly updated so that you can enjoy all the charm and character of the original building with the comfort of modern amenites. The centre piece of the cottage is the fabulous sitting/dining room in what used to be the school hall. This striking room with its high ceilings and fabulous arched windows is kept cosy with our efficient central heating and large woodburner. There is a well equipped kitchen with breakfast area, family bathroom and three bedrooms - a king size overlooking the beck, a double overlooking the garden with an ensuite shower room and a single bedroom with a seating area overlooking the beck. Outside, there is a gorgeous cottage garden with a patio and table and chairs for al fresco meals. A further seating area beside the beck provides the perfect place to relax and listen to the soothing sounds of the water running past.

Bring a Cucumber, Get a G&T – The Perfect Pairing Returns to 4 Lake District Bars in Keswick!
Keswick is about to get refreshingly quirky, as Lake District Hotels celebrate World Cucumber Day a little early — kicking things off on June 13th, the day before, because they simply couldn’t wait to toast the occasion.

On Friday 13th June, from 4pm to 5pm, you are invited to bring a fresh cucumber to any of four participating bars in Keswick’s Market Square in exchange for a perfectly chilled Hendrick’s Gin & Fever-Tree Tonic — absolutely FREE.

Whether long, thin or twisty, cucumbers in all shapes are welcome. No judgement, just gin. Bring your cucumber along to one of these participating venues:

· The Front Bar at Inn on the Square

· The Back Bar at Inn on the Square

· Skiddaw Hotel Bar

· Kings Arms Hotel Bar

This delightfully peculiar event pays tribute to the cucumber’s essential role in Hendrick’s Gin. Infused during distillation, cucumber is what gives Hendrick’s its cool, crisp character — making it the perfect botanical to celebrate.
