Outdoor adventure in the North of England for Spring 2021

Soon we’ll be waving goodbye to the dreary days of winter and setting off on exciting new adventures, roaming free enjoying joy-filled days with friends and family.

Not even January, in a pandemic, will curb our staycation wanderlust! And we’ve already got a heap of gorgeous places on the 2021 to-visit list. 

ADVENTURE AWAITS AT BROWNBER HALL

READY - SET - SCRAMBLE

In need of a new challenge? Try scrambling – which for us the uninitiated is walking on all fours over steep ground, using your hands and feet. Lying somewhere between hiking, hillwalking, mountaineering and rock climbing – Scrambling is best suited to adventurous outdoor lovers (and not the faint hearted!). 

It does promise an exhilarating and memorable experience and boasts enviable vistas as the reward, when you make it to the top!

Stay at Brownber, in one of their boutique private rentals – perfectly located at the foot of the Howgill Fells – and book a Scrambling session with professional mountaineer Graham Muney, who’s fully qualified, accredited and can arrange all the necessary equipment.

Brownber Hall and House are available for exclusive private rental, sleeping up to 23 guests across the two properties. 

·      Brownber House is available from £1,600 for 7 nights / Brownber Hall is available from £1,900 for 7 nights. 

·      Shorter breaks also available.
