Lake District Historic House and Gardens
Dalemain Near Ullswater, on the Northern fringes of the Lake District,
Dalemain is a real treasure. The fantastic Lake District historic
house and gardens contains behind its
Georgian facade, a wealth of Tudor and Mediaeval rooms and buildings.
There has been a settlement at Dalemain since Saxon times, when
a fortified pele tower is mentioned and the present day courtyard
is testimony to the defensive nature of the hamlet surrounding that
tower. The Old Hall was added in the 14th century, along with another tower. In the 16th century, two projecting wings were added creating a typical Elizabethan manor house and in 1744, the impressive Georgian front was constructed to enclose an inner courtyard. Very little change has been made to the buildings since these times, and Dalemain remains a very special Lake District Historic House and gardens.
Just to say thank you for our visit to
Dalemain. What a gem of a place! We really enjoyed every part of it. The guided tour was excellent. We intended to go back into the house for a browse around -freeflow- but the museum, shop and garden kept us so busy before we knew it it was time to leave. You could certainly spend all day at Dalemain and such value for money especially for a family. We also enjoyed lunch in your coffee shop. Very nice. We can definitely recommend Dalemain to our guests. Thank you again Alison Hewitson Lake District Farm Holidays |
