Welcome to Orchard Cottage Breaks and the Beautiful Eden Valley

With over half a million acres of some of the most breathtaking landscapes in England, the Eden Valley is unknown by all but a discerning few. Picture postcard villages, the spectacular North Pennines, with rolling fields and lush river valleys full of wonderful bird-life. This is excellent walking and climbing country - from a gentle stroll, to the challenge of the Pennine Way’s highest point at Cross Fell or the high Lakeland Fells.

All this is on your doorstep from Orchard Cottage - a cosy 400 year old beamed cottage situated in the quiet village of Bolton, near Appleby, in the tranquil Eden Valley. This cottage location is ideal for either walking or touring the valley itself, or you can take a short drive to Ullswater. The Yorkshire Dales, Pennines, Hadrian’s Wall and the Scottish borders are all within driving distance.
