Best places: Swimming lakes in United Kingdom

👍👍 We love exploring the trails here. Weather was amazing. Loads of wildlife & such peace as you wander. We walked right round this time and stopped at the wee shop for icecream.

Place for beginner and expert skiers and wakeboarders, with log cabin bar and deck for sunset beers.

👍👍 Fantastic place to visit. Windermere is the largest natural lake in England and is situated in the Lake District National Park in Cumbria. It stretches approximately 10.5 miles long and is about 1 mile wide at its widest point. Windermere is a popular tourist destination, known for its stunning bea...

👍👍 Went here for the first time to take grandson to the Aqua Park. The most 1 hour of fun I have had in ages. Enjoyed it so much. Went the following Saturday for a SUP taster session which was brilliant. The instructor was great and very patient as I fell off several times!!! I now take my own board up...

👍👍 A great area for a picnic in nice weather. Caution if you have small children though as there are drops into fast flowing water falls. A short walk away is Knights Table where you can sit down for food or a drink. Closed on Tuesday but check before you go.

👍👍 I went on a MTB Leader Assessment with James. He was very professional and made the assessment as enjoyable as it can be. Would defiantly recommend.

Relaxed log cabins & stone cottages in a laid-back resort offering a private beach area.

Wildlife-filled park with an education centre in a replica Iron Age roundhouse, plus walking trails.

Well-established fishery with 5 lakes for coarse fishing, a campsite, caravan park and cafe.

👍👍 Fabulous place, great sunsets and not busy. Come and try out the amazing facilities here, the staff are wonderful, my son had kayaking lessons here for 6 months and we now go kayaking around the coast of Anglesey. The prices are so reasonable and we'll definitely be hiring kayaks again ,now the w...

👍👍 Excellent on sunny days, easy walk on Poet's walk and around the Marina. The Pier is a must, friendly volunteers and a museum included in the price. Enjoyed the day ❤️

👍👍 Brilliantly organised with changing, facilities, toilets, a shop, hot drinks and flapjacks! Swim floats and bright caps available to borrow/buy, and wonderful clear, clean water to swim in with Kayaking lifeguards all around the lake for added reassurance. Take the plunge!

👍👍 I'd always wanted to try open water swimming but had been a bit anxious about it. I decided to take the plunge (pun fully intended) and do the open water course at the start of the month, and am now swimming regularly at Divers Cove. The course was very helpful (our teacher Rona was great) and it in...

126-acre riverside green area with 2 lakes and a watersports centre, walking trails and a cafe.

👍👍 Beautiful place to access the lake. Took my morning dip there every morning while on holiday

😐 Nice view,but you have to pay to enjoy it, the rest of the site is reliably fenced off. I understand you are charging for access to the beach (it's not that big btw), but restricting access just to sit on the bank of the lake is another level. Turned around and went to another town with lots of faci...

Smart bar/restaurant with a contemporary interior and European-inspired menu, plus an events venue.
