Kentmere Cumbria Map

About Kentmere

Kentmere, a place of quiet contemplation, lies cradled by the imposing fells of Cumbria. It lies 7.2 km north-east of Windermere (from Windermere: bearing 36°T, OS grid NY 455 043), and is situated east-north-east of Troutbeck village. Here, the landscape itself seems to exhale a soft, diffused light, a quality that lends an almost ethereal sheen to the ancient stone of its dwellings and the weathered grey of the drystone walls. The valley floor, a rich tapestry of green pasture and heather-clad slopes, gives way to the formidable heights of Harter Fell and the surrounding peaks, their summits often wreathed in a fine mist that softens their harsh edges. The River Kent, a silver thread, winds its purposeful way through this serene expanse, its murmur a constant, grounding presence.
