The setting is perfect. Behind the Centre is the forest of Grizedale, whilst opposite, across the water, lie some of Cumbrias mountainous fells. The highest peak in this area is the Old Man of Coniston at 803m (over 2500ft). The landscape is dominated by mountains, rivers, cliffs and lakes.
The Lake District has not only inspired writers and artists, but also left great impressions on all those visiting Lanehead too.
We are anxious to make maximum use of Lanehead and to continue to extend the services that we offer to schools or groups of people (i.e. scouts and guides, sports clubs, youth groups, adult groups etc.) from the supporting authorities. To this end we are offering some weeks in the Summer holiday period; either for groups to come and have a full Lanehead experience including catering and activities, or for groups to rent the building as a self catering facility with the option to either have activities provided or to do your own thing .
