Stair rests against a gentle slope, a collection of stone cottages and farmsteads breathing the quiet air of the Lake District. It lies 2.9 km south-west of Keswick (from Keswick: bearing 231°T, OS grid NY 242 217), and is situated south-south-west of Portinscale village. The sunlight here often catches the fells with a soft, pearly luminescence, bathing Stair in a light that seems to belong to another age, a light that has touched these same grey stones for centuries. The landscape around Stair is a study in muted greens and browns, the land shaped by ancient farming practices and the patient hand of the weather. One might imagine the faint scent of peat smoke lingering on a cool evening, a testament to the enduring simplicity of life in this corner of Cumbria. The nearby River Derwent, a ribbon of silver, murmurs its constant song, a soundtrack to the quiet existence of Stair.
