Langwathby

Langwathby has a huge village green where maypole dancing takes place on the third Saturday in May. The green is medieval in origin and would once have been surrounded by wood and mud houses, perhaps to enclose cattle. After the Civil War and the growth in prosperity in the late 1600s, these wattle-and-daub cottages were replaced by stone buildings.

West of the village, at Langwathby Hall Farm, Eden Ostrich World offers visitors the chance to see these splendid birds in a farm setting in the heart of the Eden Valley. The farm is also home to rare breed sheep, cattle and pigs, donkeys, deer, wallabies, alpacas and many other creatures from around the world. One unusual animal is the Zebroid, a cross between a zebra and a pony. Also on site are an adventure playground, a pre-school play area, a maze, riverside walk, gift shop and tearoom.
