About

Askham rests on the eastern fringes of the Lake District, a village of stone-built houses and greens overlooking the River Lowther. The landscape opens into low, rolling fells and farmland, with paths leading toward the nearby shores of Ullswater. This lake stretches south, its waters bordered by wooded slopes and the distinctive peaks of Place Fell and Hallin Fell on its far side.

To the north, the terrain shifts toward the quieter estate village of Greystoke, surrounded by agricultural land and forestry. The area is known for its traditional hunting country and quiet lanes. Greystoke Castle, with its private parkland, has long been associated with the training of border collies for sheepdog trials.
