Grizedale Arts

About

Accommodation

In 2007 Grizedale Arts moved out of their longstanding offices at the Grizedale Forest Visitor Centre and relocated to a new site on the East side of Grizedale Forest, to establish its new centre of operations at Lawson Park Farm.

Lawson Park lies at the boundary of the Grizedale and Brantwood estates (home to John Ruskin). It sits on the hillside 200m above Coniston Water; with dramatic views down the Furness Valley and across to the Coniston Fells.

The 18 month redevelopment involved the conversion of this traditional Lakeland hill farm into a smallholding with accommodation, offices and research facilities for staff, artists and wardens, allowing for the expansion and development of the organisation's activities.
Selected resident artists occupy a live/work room at Lawson Park, and occasional visitors can often also be accommodated (please contact us to enquire).
Our environmental policy means that visitor cars are only allowed by prior arrangement.

There is plenty of accommodation locally in the village of Coniston and the Crake Valley. Links can be found on the Coniston Community Website
We also offer a more remote accommodation facility for up to six hardy souls at Low Parkamoor
