At the gateway to the Langdale Valley, Elterwater village is a perfect location for soaking up the scenery, with walks in every direction and a warm welcome at the renowned Britannia Inn. Chesters by the River is a fantastic veggie café with amazing lunches and cakes. Elterwater was once home to a gunpowder factory which used superior quality flint only found in the renowned local slate quarries. Today it’s all about peace and quiet. A short drive away is the bustling village of Ambleside, and the shores of Lake Windermere. Here you’ll enjoy cafes, pubs, restaurants and shops. Also nearby is Coniston water, the Lake District’s third largest lake. There you’ll find more opportunities for boating activities, perhaps discovering Peel Island – featured in Arthur Ransome’s Swallows & Amazons as ‘Wild Cat Island’. Beautiful Tarn Hows is close by too, with another great pub the Drunken Duck.
