Nether Wasdale is a small village situated to the north west of Wastwater, the deepest lake in Great Britain. The village is well-served with three pubs, one with its own brewery, a farm shop and café selling local produce and ice cream. This area is the birthplace of climbing and is also a superb base for hiking and all outdoor pursuits. Unlike many lakes, motorized boats are forbidden though canoeing and kayaking are perfect for these unspoilt and tranquil waters which add to the peace and serenity of this stunning part of the Lake District National Park.
