This live stream is from The Coppermines Lakes Cottages in Coniston, a village at the head of Coniston Water in Cumbria. It is useful for anyone wanting to see how the lake and surrounding fells look right now before planning a walk, a boat trip or a drive over.

About Coniston and its lake

Coniston sits in the southern Lake District, at about 60 metres above sea level, beside the long narrow Coniston Water. The village grew around the copper mining industry of the nineteenth century, and the old mine workings still mark the slopes above it. Coniston is also linked with Donald Campbell, who set water speed records on the lake. Today the setting is mostly about the fells, the water and the quiet of the valley.

What to watch on the camera

The view is best checked in the morning, when the lake is often calm and mist can lift off the water, and in the late afternoon when light falls across the fells. Clear days show the surrounding hills in detail, while low cloud can hide the tops entirely. Weather and light change quickly in this part of Cumbria, so the live feed is a practical way to see what the day is actually like.

Practical notes and nearby places

Cumbria has a mild but wet climate, so spring and early autumn often offer the best balance of daylight and fewer crowds. Waterproof clothing is sensible at any time of year. Nearby cameras on this site include Portinscale at Derwent Water Marina, Elterwater from Low Wood Bay and Ambleside at the Salutation Hotel, which together give a wider picture of the central Lakes.
