Get the best of both worlds with family & friends in the Famous British Lake District. Keep reading for a walkthrough of the not-so-typical Glamping Stay on Lake Windermere.

Morning-time, rise & shine!

Watch the sunrise waking up in the tranquility of nature at the Graythwaite Glamping Site. Grab a brew, read a book or take out the yoga mat for some morning me-time.

Glamping lets you get back to nature and reap the plentiful benefits that will not escape you during your stay; the beauty of waking up to take a deep sip of fresh air coupled with the peace and silence of Lake Windermere is something you just won’t get from a hotel room. With the exciteable chatter of fellow Glampers and the planning of the day ahead, the morning buzz is truly something to behold on the Graythwaite Glamping Site.

Lunch, Brunch or a hilltop Munch…

What to eat when you glamp is a surprising commonly asked question: what’s on the menu for the hybrid holiday? Whip yourself a treat with a classic fry-up over the Glampfire, picnic down by the shore or even bring your buddy up to ‘The View’ for a moment away from it all – have you ever had so many options to start your day off right?

The Lakes are filled with beautiful little cafés and restaurants for you to explore at your leisure, as well as on-the-move vendors such as the famous Dude’s Dough pizza van and the treats at the Graythwaite Local Farm Shop.

We can’t Grayth-WAIT for you to get out on the Lake for some fun on the water!

There’s so much to see in the great outdoors.

The surrounding area of the Graythwaite Estate is jam-packed with walks and hikes to meet every need and ability. With walks far and near, we don’t even know where to begin! Spend the day exploring the fells and tracks across and you never know, you might just stumble upon your own natural infinity pool. Who needs a spa when you have Glamping in the Lake District?

An evening stroll on the Estate…

End your day with a wine and a dine, followed by a scenic stroll around the 5,000 acre Estate and surround yourself in the deep history and culture of Graythwaite. You can explore the grounds nearby to the Glamping site and watch the sun go down over the green hills and radiant flowers of every colour of the rainbow. Keep an eye out on our social media for updates on what is going on at the Estate during your stay.

Rydal Caves

Rydal is a small village located in the middle of Ambleside and Grasmere. Rydal is also home to Rydal water and Loughrigg Fell.

Rydal Caves can be reached by taking any of the four paths up Loughrigg fell with each path giving a different view.

The entrance to the caves is a shallow pool of water with stepping stones across the water to enter the caves. The perfect opportunity for children of all ages to make a splash, be sure to don your waterproof shoes!

Gummers Howe

Situated at the South of Windermere, just above Fell Foot, this is a short but steep walk with a very rewarding view at the top. Perhaps we’re bias as you can see all of Graythwaite Estate from up there!

With a rough terrain this walk may not be suitable for everyone in the family but is a brilliant way to burn the energy of the younger members as it is a short challenging walk.

Located just off the A592 Gummers Howe looks over the whole of Windermere.

Distance: 1.4 miles

Location: just of the A592

Tarn Hows

Located near the popular village of Coniston, Tarn Hows is a beautiful, easy walk for the whole family. Doing a soft loop of the tarn, the walk is perfect for the whole family as it has easy access around the whole walk. We would recommend calling in to Hawkshead for a delicious ice cream from the little ice cream shop!

Distance: 6.2 miles

Location: Coniston

Striding Edge

A walk for the more experienced walkers, Striding Edge is a more challenging walk up Helvellyn. With a steep narrow ridge it has a reputation of being difficult and thrilling so is perfect for anyone who is looking for a challenge.

Distance: 8.7 miles

Location: Glenridding
