Derwent Water

Derwent Water is a lake that lies immediately south of the town of Keswick. The lake is about three miles long in total, and has a number of islands in the middle of the lake, one of which is inhabited. As with most of the lake in the Lake District, it is possible to take a cruise on Derwent Water.
