Lake Windermere - 20 miles

Lake Windermere

Windermere, at 10.5 miles long, one mile wide and 220 feet deep, is the largest natural lake in England, and is fed by numerous rivers. The Romans built their fort of GALAVA at its northern end (Waterhead), and it has always been an important waterway for movement of heavy materials. Bowness-on-Windermere - Lakeland's most popular holiday resort - is an excellent centre for boating activities, with over 10,000 boats registered. Steamers and launches operate from Bowness Bay to Waterhead at Ambleside, and Lakeside at the southern end. At the southern end is Lakeside Pier, and Lakeside Station of the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway, and also the Aquarium of the Lakes.

Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway 7.5 miles

Haverthwaite Railway

The Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway is a heritage railway in Cumbria, England. The line runs from Haverthwaite via Newby Bridge to Lakeside at the southern end of Windermere. Some services are timed to connect with sailings of the diesel excursion vessels or steam vessels on Windermere, sailing up to Bowness and Ambleside. The railway is a former branch line of the Furness Railway (FR), and there is a train-boat connection that was established in 1868. The railway's locomotive fleet includes FR no. 20, Britain's oldest working standard gauge steam locomotive, which was built in 1863. The route of the connecting length from Haverthwaite to the junction at Ulverston was obliterated by road widening after British Railways closed it (to passengers in 1965 and to all traffic two years later) and before it was opened as a heritage railway in 1973.

Sizergh Castle - 15.8 miles

Sizergh Castle Just 5 miles from Junction 36 of the M6 near Kendal is Sizergh Castle. This is an imposing house, which stands proud in a rich and beautiful garden with pond, lake, a national collection of hardy ferns and a superb limestone rock garden. The estate is crossed by footpaths giving stunning views over Morecambe Bay and the Lakeland hills. Still lived in by the Strickland family, Sizergh has many tales to tell, showing centuries-old portraits and fine furniture alongside modern-day family photos - it certainly feels lived in! Take time to explore the house and garden, with its herbaceous borders and kitchen garden, sample fine local produce in the contemporary café, then follow one of the trail leaflets around the estate.
