Welcome to Rusland

Rusland Cumbria is a small village located in the southern part of the Lake District National Park in Cumbria, England. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is a popular destination for tourists who come to enjoy the stunning scenery and peaceful atmosphere. Rusland Cumbria is known for its traditional architecture, with many of the buildings dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries.

One of the main attractions in Rusland Cumbria is the Rusland Valley, which is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The valley is home to a variety of wildlife, including red deer, otters, and rare birds such as the osprey and the red kite. Visitors can explore the valley on foot or by bike, taking in the stunning views of the surrounding hills and forests.

Another popular attraction in Rusland Cumbria is the Stott Park Bobbin Mill, which is a working museum that showcases the history of the bobbin-making industry in the Lake District. The mill was built in the 1830s and was used to produce bobbins for the textile industry until it closed in the 1970s. Today, visitors can take a guided tour of the mill and see the original machinery in action, as well as learn about the lives of the workers who once worked there.
