*’derwentwater’ is 1 of the principal bodies of water in the ‘lake district national park’ in ‘north west england’*

.

(it lies wholly within the ‘Borough of Allerdale’, in the county of ‘Cumbria’)

(the lake occupies part of ‘Borrowdale’ and lies immediately south of the town of ‘Keswick’)

(it is both fed and drained by the ‘River Derwent’)

(it measures approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) long by 1 mile (1.6 km) wide and is some 72 feet (22 m) deep)

(there are several islands within the lake, one of which is inhabited)

(‘Derwent Island House’, an 18th-century residence, is a tenanted ‘National Trust’ property open to the public on five days each year)

(‘Derwentwater’ is a place of considerable scenic value)

(it is surrounded by hills (known locally as ‘fells’), and many of the slopes facing ‘Derwentwater’ are extensively wooded)

(a regular passenger launch operates on the lake, taking passengers between various landing stages)

(there are seven lakeside marinas, the most popular stops being ‘Keswick’, ‘Portinscale’, and the ‘Lodore Falls’, from which boats may be hired)

(‘recreational walking’ is a major tourist activity in the area and there is an extensive network of footpaths in the hills and woods surrounding the lake)

(the ‘Keswickβ€”Borrowdale’ road runs along the eastern shore of the lake and carries a regular bus service)

(there is a lesser, or unclassified, road along the western shore connecting the villages of ‘Grange’ and ‘Portinscale’)

(‘Derwentwater’ gave its name to the ‘Earldom of Derwentwater’)
