With much to do on your doorstep, it is very easy to leave the car and head out on foot, enjoy dining out, wander down to the shore and hire boats or jump aboard a cruise. Hop on and off to explore the sights which surround Derwentwater such as Lodore Falls (3.5 miles by road), Catbells (4.5 miles) and Surprise View (3.5 miles). Walk to Castlerigg Stone Circle (2 miles) for panoramic views. Enjoy a show at Theatre by the Lake (less than a mile). Many local fells are accessible, conquer the stunning Catbells, popular with walkers of all ages and abilities.
