Bassenthwaite Lake National Nature Reserve
Bassenthwaite Lake is one of the largest water bodies in the English Lake District. It is long and narrow, approximately 4 miles long and ³⁄₄-mile wide, but is also extremely shallow, with a maximum depth of about 70 ft. It is the only body of water in the Lake District to use the word “lake” in its name, all the others being “waters”, “meres” or “tarns”
