View allAll Photos Tagged Cumbria
The small, sleepy village of Arnside is in an idyllic setting on the river Kent estuary, in an area which has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village and beach offer exceptional views over Morecambe Bay, with the hills and mountains of the Lake District in the background, and a picturesque viaduct crossing over the water.

Herdwick sheep are unique to the Lake District; I'm rather please because I love everything about them.
