I can but agree, it's beautiful. Waterhead pier at Ambleside.
Sailing from there down to Bowness, on the steamer, drinking complimentary mulled wine to stave off the cold, is a cherished memory

I found it quite touristy, paid the parking, went to the Roman fort and drove the exiting Hard Knott Pass.

I always smile when anyone mentions Derwent Water in connection with the Lake District, since Derwent Reservoir is one of the three at Ladybower, near here.  It confuses some people.

And we keep passing Thirlmere which apparently has an aqueduct down to you lot to keep you in the water.

I'm sure the little town appreciates the influx of money coming in from non-locals.

Seems familiar to what the residents of Orlando, FL experience.  The locals hate the traffic tie-ups, crowded restaurants, etc caused by the millions of visiting tourists.
