There is a fenced area of a half of an acre which is ideal for picnics, swimming, paddling, fishing or launching dingys, canoes, and windsurfers. This is the ideal setting for a perfect ‘Swallows and Amazons’ experience.

The lake frontage is approximately 300m from Low House across the adjoining field with a hard track for easy car access. However it also makes a lovely stroll. Our children love playing pooh sticks on the bridge across Pencilmill Beck.
Directly opposite our Lake Frontage is the Ullswater Yacht Club where daily membership can be arranged. There are various ‘open’ races throughout the year in particular the LORD BIRKETT TROPHY – one of the largest open boat races in the country. There is also ULLSWATER WEEK, ULLSWATER REGATTA the NOVEMBER SERIES and various other open class races for Lasers, Wayfarers etc.
