The brief

Introduction and Background to the Project Brockhole is the Lake District National Park Authority Visitor Centre, located between Windermere and Ambleside.

It consists of a formal house and gardens alongside other activities including water sports and tree top rope courses.

The main house was constructed in 1898 as a family residence before being purchased by the Lake District National Park Authority (LDNPA).

The majority are families who visit during school holidays and weekends over the summer.
