Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Thirlmere?
The best area to stay in Thirlmere is near the village of Thirlmere itself, particularly along the western shore of the lake.

This area provides easy access to the lake's walking paths and offers stunning views of the surrounding fells. You'll find a few accommodation options located directly within the Thirlmere Valley, including guesthouses and a much-loved hotel. The main A591 road runs close by, making it convenient for exploring other parts of the Lake District.

For couples seeking a tranquil escape, staying close to the lake is ideal. The immediate vicinity offers opportunities for gentle strolls by the water, peaceful evenings, and direct access to hiking trails like those leading up Helvellyn, without the crowds found in more bustling Lake District towns.
When is the best time to go to Thirlmere?
The best time to go to Thirlmere is during the late spring (May to early June) or early autumn (September to October) for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

During these shoulder seasons, you'll find the weather generally mild and agreeable for outdoor activities like walking and cycling. The landscape is particularly lovely, with spring bringing new growth and autumn showcasing rich colours. It's an excellent time for travellers who appreciate the beauty of nature without the peak summer tourist numbers.

For those who prefer warmer temperatures and don't mind more people, July and August offer the best chance for sunshine and are ideal for water-based activities on the lake. However, popular walking routes and attractions will be busier during this period, and accommodation prices can be higher. This is a good time for families looking to make the most of the long daylight hours and school holidays.
