Grange is located four miles south of Keswick in the Borrowdale valley, arguably the most
beautiful valley in England with the mighty Skiddaw presiding over Derwentwater, the
"Queen of the Lakes".
The late Alfred Wainwright himself described Borrowdale as the "fairest valley" in the Lake
District. It is much loved by walkers, climbers and the true Lake District enthusiast due to its
dramatic stunning scenery.
