At over 10 miles long, one mile wide and 220ft deep, Windermere is the longest natural lake in England.
Thousands of visitors flock here each year to enjoy the fantastic views and to take part in the many activities on offer, from water sports to walks and sightseeing.
The lake is surrounded by pockets of history. Waterhead was originally the Roman town of Galava; the hotels around Lake Windermere are former homes to late 19th Century wealthy businessmen and Beatrix Potter had a holiday home here. Windermere also provided the settings for much of Arthur Ransome's classic Swallows and Amazons series of children's books.
These days you could visit Bowness-on-Windermere for watersports, the Victorian town of Ambleside, or indeed any number of attractions around the shores of this beautiful lake. Most of Windermere is owned by the National Trust.
