Lakeland Motor Museum
Details
Located in Backbarrow, about a 20 minute drive from Lymestone, the Lakeland Motor Museum is a fascinating celebration of transport through the ages. Home to an impressive collection of more than 30,000 exhibits, it features classic cars, motorbikes, bicycles and motoring memorabilia displayed in an imaginative and accessible way. Highlights include the Campbell Bluebird Exhibition, which tells the remarkable story of land and water speed record attempts on nearby Coniston Water. The museum sits close to the Lakeside pier, making it easy to combine a visit with a Windermere Lake Cruise or the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam Railway for a full and varied day exploring the region’s rich heritage.
