One of my favourite places to visit at any time of year.
The last time I came here was 5 years ago during August, and there had been so much rainfall that flooding of the paths and fields had prevented me from walking around the lake. This time however, the weather was cold but relatively dry. It took us 2hrs to walk all the way around at a leisurely pace.
Buttermere is beautiful whatever the time of year and I highly recommend visiting this gorgeous part of The Lake District.
Beautiful place. Amazing for paddle boarding or swimming.
Only downside is there is such limited parking, but a few quid for the entire day right as you drive up to the lake and a 15 minute walk to a good little entrance to the lake, absolutely worth it.
One of my favourite views in the country, can't decide which I love more, Buttermere or Wasdale head. Stunning views, and even cloudy weather brings a moody aesthetic to the area. The walk around is very easy, shouldn't take you more than 2 hours if you're fit. Well worth it.
Beautiful and magical place, almost surreal.
Love it and can't wait for my next visit.
There is a lot of parking just outside the village on the side of the road if you do arrive early.
What can you say about Buttermere that hadn't already been said!
For me it's the Lake District's cherry on the top, absolutely beautiful views in every direction, there's walks to suit everyone, from just a walk round the lake to a couple of scrambles up onto The High Stile Range.
You can access so many fells from Buttermere, too many to mention, but obviously the High Stile range, Haystacks, Fleetwith Pike, Robinson, Hindscarth, Rannerdale Knots, Grassmoor, & Mellbreak, from these fells, well you can link so many others!
Both Buttermere & Crummock Water are just epic for paddleboarding, & wild swimming, though I'd stick to Buttermere for the wild swimming. The two pubs are decent, though what was once The Fish Inn has now been taken over sadly, & it's not the same, good selection of local ales, though I'm not a drinker, but you've a fair choice, unlike the menu, which is tiny, possibly the smallest I've seen! Having said that, the bangers & mash were very good! Especially after a day of both fell walking & SUP! The Bridge Inn is far better for food, though be prepared to queue for a table in summer, which we did, & after 10-15 minutes we were sitting looking at a great menu! Again, plenty of ales if you're into that, but a much better menu, & again, very good food!
Syke Farm Campsie is brilliant imo, it's only got 1 shower for the men, & another for the women, but considering this was my second time camping there, I still didn't have to wait, its got like a drying barn, with clothes lines to dry off anything as well as good washing up facilities.
This review is from my first visit in 2012, when I camped, many other day visits as well as this year's camp, which is why I was a little disappointed that the Fish Inn has gone, but does that change my opinion of Buttermere being the cherry on the top? Nah, not in the slightest, still the most stunning part of The Lakes, with Upper Eskdale coming in a close second.
Stunning location with a very family friendly walk around the Buttermere lake. Very much swimmable in some calmer coves, we swam in mid August. Ice cream is available halfway around the lake and there is a cool waterfall on one side that is climbable. Great day out for the family or just casual walkers.
Very beautiful place in Lake District. Walk along the lake is beautiful. The journey from the pass is amazing. Highly recommend this place.
It's only hour and half away from windermere lake.
Make sure u have rain jackets with u.
Wonderful walks and views. Also spot the Ghyll featured in Mission Impossible.
