Loweswater is a peaceful lake that's often missed by many visitors. At approximately 1 mile long (1.6 km) and 0.5 mile (0.8 km) wide, it provides an excellent lake circuit for walkers with magnificent views to enjoy. If you don't fancy hiking around the whole body of water, though, why not enjoy the serene Holme Wood?

Beautiful spot and surrounded by the finest walking country. Gets very busy on the weekends and parking is somewhat restricted around the lake.

There is a National Trust car park at the south end.
