    “We found the Hare Shack last minute online.”

    From the second we got there, we were in heaven. ...

    From the second we got there, we were in heaven. The accommodation was absolutely stunning in the most beautiful location. It was in a quiet area near Kendal but only 15 minutes drive from the town centre. We were able to go for lovely walks along the fields and see the wonderful scenery and see all of the sheep and walk along the stream that runs through where the accommodation is located. The owners, Chris and Julie were the sweetest, most caring and kind people and amazing hosts. They were always there to help, chat and let us know about any good places to go and see. They had literally thought of everything in their welcome book, even how to do the fireplace correctly. We found some amazing restaurants and cafes from their book and visited some of them twice. I cannot recommend this place enough. Chris, Julie and their lovely daughter came out to see us off, which was so thoughtful. We have already spoken to them about returning next year with our family. If you can....GO!!
