Kirkstile Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

The best pub in the world. Get a pint of Loweswater Gold whilst sitting in the beer garden with views of Melbreak. Can't beat it!

Kirkstile Inn

Highlight • Pub

A great mountain pub with good views, a nice beer garden, excellent beer and well-cooked food. They also have rooms if you fancy a bit of luxury and a hearty breakfast before the days running.

No Road to the Lake Signpost

Highlight • Structure

This is one of my favourite signs in the Lake District! The sign to nowhere... One fork says 'No Road to the Lake' and the other says 'No Through Road'. …

At the point where the River Cocker meets Crummock Water is a classically picturesque view the Buttermere valley. A popular spot for skimming stones, there are few backgrounds as idyllic.

View of Crummock Water

Highlight • Viewpoint

Lovely place to enjoy the beach-side view - several seats too. Popular in the summer for alfresco dining and wild swimming - also a haven for red squirrels.

Limited space in the car park - best to get there early in the busy season?
