Attractions
We can’t always guarantee the weather in the Lake District, but what we can guarantee is that there is always something to do. For a full day out or something to keep the kids entertained there are a range of fantastic visitor attractions in and around Ullswater to choose from. Why not take a lake cruise, visit an historic house, experience the Rheged Centre which includes a huge 3D cinema screen, or visit the famous Aira Force Waterfall?
Just outside of Tirril on the way to Pooley bridge. Come get some pasteurised milk, milkshakes, tray-bakes, eggs, ice cream and wagyu!
An award-winning Lake District attraction, offering scenic lake cruises on England's most beautiful lake.
Rheged is a gallery, café, cinema, shopping venue, workplace and creative space on the edge of the Northern Lakes. A place where kids can be kids in our Indoor Play and Making Space and where friends, family and colleagues can share a meal, watch a film, hold a meeting, see an exhibition, buy a gift or catch up over coffee. A flexible space for getting together or enjoying time alone with a book or notepad; a place where stories are told, ideas are sparked and the Cumbrian landscape is a constant source of inspiration.
For 300 years visitors have been drawn here, where rainwater runs from the fells into Aira Beck and thunders in one 65-foot leap over the falls. Yet, Aira Force is much more than an impressive waterfall. A network of trails weaves its way from Ullswater lakeshore to Gowbarrow summit, passing towering Himalayan firs, rare red squirrels, woodland glades, picnic spots and views out across Ullswater.
We are a family run farming business which is home to 6000 free range hens, 420 lambing sheep plus lambs, a few cows, pigs, horses, 15 bee hives and our 9 working dogs.
