Enjoy boating and sailing on Ullswater, or take in the magnificent scenery on a launch trip up the lake. This region offers something for everyone, whichever season you choose to visit, in the winter months why not join the Lake District ski club.
Dockray has its own pub to wander down to for some local fayre. The gorgeous Aira Force Waterfall is a short walk away, further away are the ample attractions of the Northern Lake District around Ullswater. Energetic pursuits abound, with cycling a particularly good option, or maybe try the National Trust’s walk around Aira Force, Gowbarrow Trail or Ullswater way. In a tranquil location, this beautifully finished conversion is an ideal spot for a couple or two to enjoy a Lake District break. Shop 4 miles, pub and restaurant 100 yards.

A very comfortable and well equipped cottage. It remained cool during the hot days which was very welcome. Great walks from the door and easy to catch a bus back to the end of the road if you wanted to do one-way walks. The Royal is great for food and Ullswater was perfect for swimming and paddle boarding.
