Near Ullswater, on the Northern fringes of the Lake District, Dalemain is a real treasure. The fantastic house contains behind its Georgian facade, a wealth of Tudor and Mediaeval rooms and buildings. There has been a settlement at Dalemain since Saxon times, when a fortified pele tower is mentioned and the present day courtyard is testimony to the defensive nature of the hamlet surrounding that tower. The Old Hall was added in the 14th century, along with another tower. In the 16th century, two projecting wings were added creating a typical Elizabethan manor house and in 1744, the impressive Georgian front was constructed to enclose an inner courtyard. Very little change has been made to the buildings since these times, and Dalemain remains a very special Lake District House.

In the garden at Dalemain, the red squirrels are regularly to be seen scampering around, taking nuts from the feeders and burying them in the grass and borders. We have different sorts of feeders for them, including some designed exclusively for red squirrels, which exclude greys. .
