The quaint village of Patterdale rests at the foot of
Ullswater, the second largest lake in the Lake District,
surrounded by a sweep of gentle hills. This popular area beckons
walkers and explorers for its towering peaks and stunning landscape
scenery. It has an outdoor education centre at Patterdale Hall,
offering extensive grounds and a catalogue of enthralling
activities including kayaking, gorge walking and barrel rafting.
This beautiful little village is simply not to be missed.
