It's safe to say this is one of the best infinity pools in the Lake District. You may even stretch it to one of the best in the UK!
However, with its increased social media awareness, you may have to wake up a little bit earlier to get it all to yourself like the video shown!
It's worth mentioning this hidden gem is quite small, so whilst it can be deep enough in some parts to swim a few strokes, it's not really the place to go for an actual swim (rather a plunge pool!).
If you've been following UK Hidden Gems for a while, it's safe to say that the Thirlmere Infinity Pool has received a lot of attention during 2022. And rightly so! What's not to love about it? The water is glisteningly clear, and there are stunning views of Thirlmere from this idyllic location.
It might have more visitors than last year, but if you go at the right time, you'll have it all to yourself (ideal for that iconic Instagram posing photo!). Since the COVID lockdowns, unique hidden gems such as the Thirlmere Infinity Pool have been discovered and shared across social media, which isn't necessary a bad thing considering the grief it can sometimes bring!

Remember - LeaveNoTrace!
As with anywhere outdoors, kindly keep these areas pristine and wild by taking all trash with you. The amount of complaints we have seen since COVID-19 is crazy. It's really not that hard to take your rubbish with you!
There is a greater chance of litter because the infinity pool is becoming more and more popular and receives more and more visitors. Litter tends to spread, so if you see any and are able to pick it up and dispose of it outside the park, it will help keep the area tidy.
