As all pub quiz aficionados will know there is only one lake in the Lake District. Bassenthwaite Lake is the only body of water in the Lake District to have the word ‘lake’ in its name. All the others are ‘waters’ or ‘meres’ or ‘tarns’.

It’s worth paddling here for no other reason than to be able to say you’ve SUPed on the only lake in the Lake District!
