The Lakes

My name is Lynn Tarry and I have been the Local Guardian for White House Guardianships since 2000 and during this time I have hosted many students from around the world.

I live in a place called Dolphinholme in a beautiful cottage style property with the River Wyre running through the back garden. I am well-travelled having visited many countries both in Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

North Lancashire has lots to offer and I look forward to welcoming students to our beautiful and historic region.

Lancaster is renowned for its Medieval Castle dating back to the 11th century on the site of a Roman fort overlooking a crossing of the River Lune. The castle is better known for the infamous stories of the Pendle Witches. Lancaster comprises of winding cobbled streets, museums, quality restaurants, quaint coffee shops and gift shops.
