Events
There is a fantastic range of events that take place in and around Ullswater each year that celebrate the rich diversity, local history, culture and beauty of the area. Highlights include the world famous Marmalade Festival, the popular Winter Droving, Ullswater Walking Festival or Ullswater’s very own Daff Fest. Or perhaps one of the many sporting events, such as the Ullswater Triathlon or the Epic Lakes Swim is more your cup of tea?

Dalemain Plant Fair

At Dalemain, we have focused on independent growers and specialist nurseries to protect the reputation of the fair. Over the years, we have built up a high standard of vendors and also continue to push to attract the best in the industry. Dalemain is an award-winning RHS garden and well-established plantsman’s garden. The fair is in front of the Mansion with a view out to the high Lake District fells. We also have selected artisan craft stalls to complement the plant offerings.
On the day, there will be:
Tours of the Mansion
Food and drink served from the Great Barn Tearoom
Artisan marmalade tasting
Parking will be available in the park beside the fair. The weather is usually warm and dry in June. You may want to get in early to have the best selection of the plants or spend the whole day enjoying the garden and stay for the day out.
Along with the Plant Fair, the entry ticket gives you access to Dalemain’s beautiful historic gardens at one of the best times of the year to see it. Tickets for entry to the Fair will be available closer to the event.
