Situated on the Cartmel Peninsula, with an enviable position facing south over Morecambe Bay, it's no wonder that Grange has been enticing tourists since the railway arrived in the 19th century. This elegant town stretches along the Cumbrian coast, rising into the wooded lower slopes of Hampsfield Fell. From the summit of the Fell incredible wrap-around views of the Lake District and the Bay can be enjoyed from Hampsfell Hospice. From the spacious pedestrian Promenade there are views across the sands to Morecambe and, on a clear day, Blackpool Tower.
Discover the sights of Grange in this short film and sample the delights of Dorothy's Teas together with the cultural fair known as PromArt.
Thank you to Dorothy Stubley (Dorothy's Teas), Sam Spodofora (PromArt) and Jo@Crow (Crow and Apricot)

Thanks for the video, my mum was evacuated there during the war from Liverpool. As a family we went back for a visit about 30 years later. It's a lovely place to visit.

Grange over sands looks a beautiful place. My mum and dad spent there honeymoon there back in 1948. Am sure most of it including the walk along the promenade is still there!

Thanks so much for the feature! We are making significant progress with plans for the restoration at the moment. A fully restored Lido is in sight!

I find it almost ridiculous that several things are missing from this video. To start off with no Jimmy Mohawk, no Shaws Of Grange. Two new businesses which have at their helms local musical icons of the town. Yes indeed, Jim and Scott have done for underground skatepunk in this town what Liam and Noel Gallagher did for shite haircuts and silly little round sunglasses in the 90s. Also, the ducks are overrated. They're just waterproof chickens. Drink Jimmy Mohawk Premium Spirits.
