The park is located above the glacial lake of Ullswater, which is the second largest lake in the region after Windermere. The pretty little village of Pooley Bridge is only 4.9 miles away and straddles the River Eamont at the head of Ullswater in the beautiful Eden Valley. The two main streets are lined with greystone houses and there are a number of shops, teashops, bars/restaurants overlooking the lake and the river.
