Askham Hall

Did you know that May is National Walking month? Joe – our photographer’s favourite walk around Lake Ullswater is to Sheffield Pike via Glencoyne. “From a photographer's point of view this has to be one of my favourite circular routes which provides a good combination of vistas. The views from Heron Pike are magnificent and it's one of the only walks where you can see the full stretch of the water from Patterdale to Pooley Bridge.” Why not give it a try yourself! #nationalwalkingmonth Ullswater The Lake District Ullswater Visit Eden Cumbria Tourism

So 10 years ago today when Askham Hall was still a private home, we held the most incredible family wedding. The first seeds were sown... and the rest is history. For more on weddings head over to @askhamhallweddings on Instagram 💍💒🧖‍♀️
