The charming hamlet of Elterwater is the perfect getaway from everyday life, with its beautiful and small ‘swan lake’. Elterwater is the ideal tourist base as it sits at the gateway of the picturesque Langdale Valley and between Ambleside and Greatlangdale, known for the famous Wrynrose Path, which is the only way out of the u-shaped valley. Take a trip to the larger towns of Grasmere and Ambleside which are only a short drive away and sample local produce at a variety of eateries, purchase souvenirs at local business and take in the idyllic atmosphere.
