Howtown, a peaceful hamlet on Ullswater’s eastern shore, is a gateway to stunning Lake District walks and scenic steamer cruises. The old jetty there offers a perfect spot to capture the lake’s calm waters, rolling hills, and historic boats, pure charm for every photographer and nature lover.

Photography Tips

For photographing Howtown and its jetty, use early morning or late afternoon light to capture soft, warm tones. Include the lake and hills in your frame for depth, and try reflections on the water for added interest. A wide-angle lens helps show the full scene, while a tripod is great for sharp shots in low light. Look for textures in the old wood and keep an eye on changing weather to create mood.

Travel Information

To reach Howtown, take a boat from Glenridding or Pooley Bridge on Ullswater, or drive through the Lake District and park nearby, then walk a short distance to the jetty by the lake.
