Staying Safe
We continue to work hard and have the safety and welfare of our guests, staff and the local community at the heart of everything we do. Following the very latest Government guidelines, we have implemented a range of new procedures for check-in and check-out, housekeeping, dining and how guests are able to enjoy themselves and get the most from their time with us.
Tree Felling on the Langdale Estate: Ramorum Disease on Larch
In October 2020 the Langdale Estate was served with a statutory notice from the Forestry Commission to fell 36 Larch trees and remove large areas of rhododendrons because of the presence of the disease phytophthora ramorum – with both species being as infected as the other. The areas of the estate that fall under this order can be seen in the map below.
