Local Area

st_johns_churchBurns Farm is proud of it's little jewel 'Tewet Tarn' which is set amid the rugged undulating little tors of Low and High Rigg, from here you can enjoy breathtaking views.

You will also be able to see the campsite from here with Skiddaw in the background. From Tewet Tarn you can take the footpath situated in the fells above the valley to St. John's in the Vale Church. The church had been a centre for worship for over 400 years.

The present building dates from 1845, though there has been a church on the site for much longer. Although located in an isolated spot, the road, which passes the church was once an important road, part of a track, which leads from Matterdale over to Wanthwaite and on to the Naddle Valley. The church welcomes many visitors who happen on it on their journey over High Rigg. The building conveys a warm atmosphere, which is conducive to peace and prayer.
