Blackwell - The Arts & Craft House
Located just a 5-minute drive from Bowness-on-Windermere, Blackwell – the Arts & Crafts house is one of the Lake District’s most beautiful historic houses.
Designed in 1901 as a holiday home by architect Mackay Hugh Baillie Scott, it offers a beautifully preserved snapshot into the British Arts & Crafts Movement.
Today, Blackwell keeps the spirit of this movement alive through a rolling programme of contemporary craft exhibitions and events, providing an inspiring place to explore art, design and the very best of contemporary craftsmanship.
