Low Jock Scar Country Estate must be one of the area’s best kept secrets. Head just a few miles north of the historic market town of Kendal where the unspoilt Fawcett Forest dips into the Bannisdale Valley and there sits Low Jock Scar. Tucked alongside the banks of Bannisdale Beck where the sound of the babbling Beck creates an atmosphere like no other and captures perfectly the unique charm of this idyllic location. Bannisdale Bridges – high and low, both listed, – mark the boundary, with the high bridge sitting on the route of Wainwright’s Horseshoe walk.
This delightful propery sits in several acres of mature gardens and woodland where guests are welcome to meander through the colourful grounds and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the location. With the changing seasons the woodland creates an ever-changing environment to be enjoyed. The bluebells create a carpet of blue in late Spring while the glorious colours of Autumn leaves are hard to beat. Guests will be delighted to spot that the grounds are often frequented by a wide variety of birds and wildlife including woodpecker, deer and hares.
