Here at Bowness Bay, we all have our unique responsibilities but if anyone needs help it’s all hands-on deck. That’s the beauty of working in a team like ours, we are all in it together. And there is always the perk of a fresh pint after a long day’s work. - Gregg, Trainee brewer
I like the fact you can walk out the door and be in breathtaking scenery in minutes either walking or on a bike. We always like to incorporate a walk which ends up at a pub for a pint or two of Swan Blonde!

Climbing on Gimmer Crag in Great Langdale on a crisp sunny spring day, followed by a few pints of Helles Lager in the sunshine. Perfection.

I love the lake! As a family, we spend hours swimming, playing and paddle boarding on Coniston Water. There's no better feeling of freedom that paddling around in the middle of the lake.

The area is stunning and there is so much to do. If you want to escape somewhere peaceful and quiet, it's easy to find, but likewise, if you want to be busy and hectic that's an option too.
