Brockhole
Now run as a Visitor Centre, archery, zip wires, go-karts etc dominate the gardens. However, if you’re visiting the area, it’s worth popping in – the only charge is for car parking.
The Terraces below the house include a Rose Garden, Wildflower Meadow and a Kitchen Garden. Wander through the woodland down to the shore – I visited on a particular hot day in July and it was filled with holiday-makers enjoying themselves.
Brockhole is owned by the Lake District National Park Authority.
Entry is free, the only charge is for car parking.
