About Bampton

Bampton (and Bampton Grange) sits at the foot of Haweswater, the last villages before the reservoir road. They are small, stone and serious walking country — High Street, Kidsty Pike, and the Riggindale eagle watch.

Stay here if you want the far-eastern fells without staying in Penrith or Ullswater’s busier shore.

Famous for

  • Haweswater access
  • Mardale legacy (drowned village)
  • Golden eagles historically in Riggindale
