With its ancient stone circles and centuries-old architecture, Shap is the perfect destination for a holiday or short break rich in history. Situated in Cumbria's Eden district, Shap lies within the limits of both the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District National Parks.
Shap stands out from other villages in the area with its trademark linear formation. Most of the holiday cottages and rental accommodation in the village can be found along this long row of buildings, with many properties dating back to the 17th century.
Surrounded by Cumbrian countryside and with plenty of historic accommodation on offer, Shap is the perfect place to enjoy an overdue getaway.
