Allithwaite itself has a post office / general store, children's playground, tennis court, bowling green and football pitch.
Just one and a quarter miles away is Cartmel with its ancient priory, race course, sticky toffee pudding and superb restaurants, and two miles away is Grange over Sands with its mild climate, beautiful promenade, ornamental gardens and shops. Swimming is availabile at a hotel in Grange or a leisure centre at Kendal. Three of the top seven Cumbrian visitor attractions are only a ten minute drive away: the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway connects you to the awaiting Windermere Lake Cruise Ships, which travel the full 10 miles of the lake, dropping you (for collection later) at Waterhead Ambleside or Bowness. The Aquarium of the Lakes, also at Lakeside, gives you a good idea of what lurks in the waters.
20 Minutes away at Dalton is the fascinating South Lakes Wild Animal Park. Holker Hall, the home of Donald Campbell's Bluebird collection, is 4 minutes away. We are in a great location for walking and cycling as the Cumbrian Cycle route is 1 mile away and Grizedale Forest which has superb way marked mountain bike trails and walking trails is just a few miles north. We are 1 mile from the Cistrercian Way and 1 and a half miles from the Cumbrian Coastal Path. Both superb walking paths.
