Discover the Lake District through the lens of local photographer Matt Nuttall. The Lakes Gallery in Bowness-on-Windermere is a dedicated photography gallery displaying the region’s mountains, lakes, villages and wildlife in striking fine-art prints.
What makes The Lakes Gallery special?
Rather than a general gift shop, this independent gallery celebrates the changing moods of the Lake District. Matt’s photographs capture familiar landmarks in extraordinary light and weather, from misty valleys and reflective lakes to dramatic fell landscapes and Herdwick sheep.
