Explore Cumbria for an experience like no other in England. The market towns of Kendal, Keswick and Cockermouth offer a unique shopping experience for the urban dweller, and the busy lakes of Windermere and Ullswater provide ample opportunity for boating or watersports. The east’s Eden Valley is one of the region’s best-kept secrets, and the west’s dramatic scenery of Buttermere and Wastwater well-worth the extra-mileage. Keep an eye out for England’s last golden eagle and don’t forget to stock up on Kendal Mintcake, still made in the town that bears its name. Visit Cumbria today and take in the county’s splendour for yourself.
Explore the Lakes in a funky electric ‘Twizy’ Ullswater, Cumbria
Ready to hire from a variety of visitor attractions and accommodation providers, as part of a partnership between the ‘See More’ sustainable travel programme and the national car sharing company Co-wheels Car Club. With no engines, exhausts or fuel systems, they can be driven at the push of a button and will allow visitors who arrive either without a car or in larger vehicles to explore the nooks and crannies of the Lake
District in a silent, eco-friendly way, hearing the sounds of the lovely surroundings as you do not get with normal car noises. To make the funky two-seater vehicles distinctively Cumbrian, each has been branded with its own distinctive sheep personality and named in traditional dialect (a mix of Westmorland and Cumberland numbers).

Green Fingers
One customer just couldn’t sell his house until it had a Richard Parker makeover featuring a fabulous sweeping drive. Afterwards, it sold straight away.
Another customer was feeling the effects old age and simply couldn’t manage to keep his garden in the beautiful condition he’d always maintained. The once pristine lawn was dying, but Richard replaced it with quality artificial grass, created borders that were practically maintenance-free and added a lovely seating area from which to enjoy it. The owner was so happy he cried. Richard oversees every project himself, large or small, and his team members always work strictly to
his very particular standards so customers can always be confident they will be getting a quality job done whether they are having just a new feature, some paving or a complete transformation. He is also very happy to share his advice and professional knowledge to help people maintain their new look.
“I like to go the extra mile,” he says. That’s why the company goes from strength to strength!”

Everyone knows that great garden landscaping can have a big impact on a property, but few realise just how it can change a life! Paving and landscaping expert Richard Parker has 20 years’ experience but is still amazed at the impact his work can have.
