Kirkstone Pass
Your afternoon starts with a climb, all the way up to the Kirkstone Inn,the highest inhabited building in the Lake District, for a stop to take in the views back down the valley right the way down to Lake Windermere and Ambleside. This once important coaching inn sits almost at the summit of the Lake District's highest pass that is open to motor traffic. We stop for photo opportunities.
Ullswater Lake
From our stop the road plunges down into the Kirkstone Pass properly with the valley walls rising up steeply on either side, past the church shaped rock from which the valley gets its name and on to the viewpoint for a photo stop of the ribbon of road as it descends down to Brothers Water. This lake was one of the first places in the Lakes to be acquired by the National Trust. The thin strip of road winds past the lake, down to the Ullswater valley and on to the charming and popular village of Patterdale. This the starting point for a number of popular hill-walks, most notably the Striding Edge path up to Helvellyn, the third highest mountain in the Lakes. The only other village in this valley is Glenridding and it is here that we get our first glimpse of the National Park's second largest lake, Ullswater. We follow the road along the western shore of the vast and sparkling lake almost in the footsteps of William and Dorothy Wordsworth. It was here at Wordsworth Point that they saw the wild daffodils, the inspiration for one of Wordsworth's most famous poems. Your next stop is here to allow you to access the lake shore for some splendid views of what the celebrated Lakeland writer Alfred Wainwright described as "that loveliest of lakes, curving gracefully into the far distance".

5.00Fantastic tour! Couldn't have been better. I've been on several solo tours and loved them all but this time was traveling with family and decided to book this private tour. Tim was lovely and lively and the tour gave my family much more than just a glimpse of the lakes I love. Thank you so much!!!
Great introduction to the Lakes and surrounding area

5.00This was our first time in the Lake District and we are so glad we did this tour at the start. It was informative and we saw all the main sights some of which we may have missed. We learnt so much and avoided the stress of navigating parking, narrow lanes etc. Well worth it. The Covid arrangements, the vehicle, booking, timings was all without hitch. Duncan our driver and guide was outstanding. He was knowledgable, entertaining, caring, helpful, professional and an excellent and safe driver. We thought the all day tour would be tiring but there were plenty of stops and the time went really quickly thanks to Duncan’s commentary. So glad we did the tour. Excellent
Wonderful half day Private Tours in the Lake District :-)

5.00Absolutely first class! Tim was a pleasure to have as a driver - knowledgeable, very amicable and all in all the experience was exactly as we could have hoped. My wife and I did 2x half day private tours and cannot realistically fault the trips in any way. Highly recommended - thanks to Tim for our great experience :-)
Awesome experience!
