[W]ith the Windermere One Way Swim set for September 3, there is no better place to catch the action than at Storrs Hall, on the shores of Lake Windermere.

Proud partner of the event, Storrs Hall will be home to an official feed station for both swimmers and spectators to enjoy the half-way point.
Set within 17 acres of outstanding natural beauty, Storrs Hall not only provides direct access from the shore, but also serves as the perfect half way point, marked by the protruding National Trust-owned historic landmark, The Temple. Spectators can enjoy morning tea and lunch with views of Windermere and the Lake District fells beyond.
