Popular Attractions in Grasmere (2025)

Bridge House is located in Ambleside, a small town at the northern end of Lake Windermere, across a stream. It's a small loft that's easy to miss if you're not looking for it. It is said that in the past poor people built their houses on bridges in order to avoid taxes, which is also its special feature. The house is now uninhabited and has become a small landmark in the town for tourists to visit, although it is sometimes closed for maintenance. There are a lot of small shops near the bridge house, you can buy food and some souvenirs, it's good to hang out or sit for a while.
