Grange-over-Sands is a pleasant and peaceful seaside resort on the edge of the Lake District in Cumbria. Somerset House is within three minutes walk of the promenade and shops. There are many beauty spots and places of interest nearby and Grange has marvellous views over Morecambe Bay. Lake Windermere with all its leisure facilities is only 20 minutes drive away.
Somerset House is ideal for a relaxing break at any time of the year.
Somerset House was built in 1882 as a 'posting' establishment, run by a John Dibble from Somerset. Small horse drawn carriages provided a local bus service, distributing passengers who arrived either by long distance carriage or later by train.
Somerset House was used for accommodation and refreshment as it still is today.
Far from the pressure and stress of 21st century road congestion, retail parks and traffic chaos, our stone built 19th century guest house lies in the tranquil Edwardian resort of Grange over Sands, with its charming independent shops, cafes, fragrant gardens. Stay here and step into a bygone age.
