In the Victorian era, many industrialists from Lancashire chose to build grand mansions around lake Windermere, all probably trying to impress and outdo their neighbours. This has left us a wonderul legacy of fine architecture, and many of these buildings can be seen by the public as they are now hotels, or used for purposes that give the public access.
