Buttermere in the Lake District, North West England
In the heart of the beautiful Lake District in North West England, Buttermere, meaning “the lake by the dairy pastures”, has bragging rights to some of the national park's most spectacular views. This tranquil scene, at the southern tip of the lake, features a row of Scots pines – known as The Sentinels – reflecting in the still waters amidst a backdrop of dramatic fells. The idyllic lake is popular with photographers and walkers, with a footpath stretching roughly seven kilometres around its perimeter. Perfect for an afternoon stroll.
