- The first thing you will notice about Park Foot is its stunning location adjacent to Lake Ullswater. The countryside and views around the park are superb - the Lake stretching for 9 miles, the Helvellyn mountains, and Martindale and Kentmore Common bordering the lake to the east and the west.The Lake District is beautiful at any time of the year; although Gowbarrow Park by the lakeside is particularly lovely in Spring when the daffodils, so immortalised by Wordsworth, appear.
