Lake District Photography Guide
Windermere, Ambleside & Coniston
The Windermere, Ambleside, and Coniston area, or what I’d loosely refer to as the ‘South Lakes’, is my personal favourite part of the Lake District for landscape photography. With its incredible variety of scenery—from quiet tarns and rushing rivers to craggy fells and peaceful woodlands—it offers something for every photographer. This area is also packed with accessible locations, making it ideal for capturing stunning shots without needing long hikes. Let’s explore some of the best photography spots in this beautiful section of the Lake District.
