Holker Hall and Gardens is found in a fantastic setting between the sea and the Lake District fells. The climate here has allowed gardeners over the centuries to develop the wonderful gardens which are developed and nurtured by the current gardening team. There is a magnificent deer park outside the formal gardens and woodland which gives great opportunity for viewing the deer while on the Tramper.
There is also the chance to visit the Hall (Tramper can not be taken indoors), the gift shop and the café.
