Unique as one of only four puppet theatres constructed in England, with puppeteers bridges for marionettes and a pit for working rod puppets from below. The site lines are great for children, with all the rows of seats on a steep rake, allowing children to see over adults. All of our productions are written, designed and produced in our own on site workshops,staged with full lighting and musical scores and appeal to all ages. The theatre has an on site cafe and also an on site free entry art gallery with shop. Tables can be reserved in the cafe for groups visiting the puppet theatre and a children's menu is offered. We were awarded the Readers Choice Culture Award from Cumbria Life Magazine this year for our venue and last year won the "Sustainable Tourism Award" from Cumbria Tourist board for our"Eco" buildings and sound green business ethic. Many of our audience members have returned year after year to see our performances and after show meet the puppet sessions for photographs.
We saw Puss in Boots with our 6 year old. She was enthralled through. Wonderful production, and it's great that the children can ask questions and see the puppets at the end. Would highly recommend.

Only my second Lakeland fell climb to date to me to Hallin Fell. We accessed the climb from the car park at St Peters church in Martindale. The little road that passes a few camp sites is driven from near Pooley bridge. Beware at busy times bank holidays being the main, the road is extremely difficult to navigate due volume of traffic and on one occasion a full sized coach manoeuvred along when we exited. Back to the climb, it is a very steep grassy track accessed on the opposite side of the road. With average fitness and resting you should make the summit in around half an hour. Believe me the views are magnificent in all directions. I loved it and I'm sure you will too, it's worth all the effort!

Came here to walk the dogs, following a disused railway for a couple of miles (very easy walking), results in a spectacular view.

Dating from the Bronze Age, this is England's third largest stone circle that consists of a huge ring (the Daughters) of more than 60 stones and Long Meg, a 12-foot-high block of red sandstone.
Impressive, especially Long Meg with the stone carved cup and rings on the red sandstone whilst her daughters making up the stone circle are granite boulders. We set off from Little Salkeld intending to do the five-mile walk which includes Lacy's Caves however the footpath on the banks of the Eden was closed due to flood erosion so we walked directly to see the circle.

The staff were amongst the most friendly, well-informed and relaxed we’ve met at an National Trust property. The house renovation was not the usual pristine National Trust standard we've experienced in other places, it looks as though the National Trust need to invest a lot of money into the property. However the house is interesting, the working water mill is good to see, and riverside walk through woodland was delightful. Real efforts in child-friendliness have been made. It was lovely that apples grown in the orchards were available for a voluntary contribution. It was too wet to visit the gardens but they looked promising.
