The area around Kendal.
Kendal is a limestone market town on the edge of the Lake District and the commercial base for a large area of the south Lakes and Lune valley. Many businesses here serve holiday lets, guesthouses and farms as well as ordinary households, and travel into the fells is a real part of the job. The grey stone buildings and wet weather make roofing, pointing and damp work routine. A website that is clear about how far into the Lakes you go and whether you handle holiday-let work will attract the right enquiries.
Windermere (7 miles), Sedbergh (9 miles), Kirkby Lonsdale (11 miles) and Ambleside (11 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. A longer drive takes in Carnforth (14 miles) and Morecambe (18 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.
Inside Kendal, the site can name areas such as Burneside, Oxenholme, Natland and Staveley.
Kendal (postcode area LA) sits about 251 miles north of Exeter.
