About

Windermere South sits on the eastern edge of Lake Windermere and contains the town centre clustered around the station and lake shore. The Lakes line from Oxenholme ends at Windermere railway station, which links the area to the mainline. Boat services and jetties operate from the town’s shore, and a mix of shops, cafes and local businesses lines the main streets close to the water. Paths and roads from the town give direct access to lakeside walks and to lower valley routes without leaving the ward.

Staveley lies a few miles west of Windermere South, along the River Kent where old mill buildings mark the village core. Staveley Mill Yard occupies restored former mills on the riverbank and hosts workshops and small businesses. The village sits at the start of lanes that climb into the Kent valley and the surrounding upland terrain, and a compact street pattern connects housing, pubs and community facilities to the riverside. Local services and the river corridor are focal points for residents and visitors moving between the settlements.
