A gentle stroll from the town centre though beautiful parks leads to the shores of Derwentwater, a truly delightful lake, studded with small islands and surrounded by magnificent fells. For those in search of culture the Theatre by the Lake offers music, theatre, dance and much more. For artists and photographers and artists the landscape is without equal.
