On Hampsfield fell, which is above the town, stands Hampsfell Hospice - a stone shelter for walkers, this was built by a local vicar in 1846. From here visitors can enjoy the views out to sea or north to the foot hills of southern Lakeland. On a clear day the Isle of Man and Snowdonia can be seen. Grange over Sands is within easy reach of Cartmel, Windermere and Ulverston.
