We hope that Glaramara offers a quality outdoor experience, whether you are part of one of our organised activities or using us as a base for your walking or biking. As well as looking the part, you need gear that will cope with the demands of the outdoor world.
Based in nearby Keswick, George Fisher, is one of the UK’s leading retailers of outdoor equipment and clothing, established back in 1967 and a regular winner of the Outdoor Industry Association’s ‘Outdoor Retailer of the Year’ award. We want Glaramara guests and customers to receive the best customer service and shopping experience during their time in the Lake District. Compared with other outdoor clothing and equipment providers, we know that George Fisher can provide this.
It offers:
- a fantastic choice of boots out of its famous Boot Room, so well known that people travel from across the UK to be fitted out there
- climbing, walking and camping equipment as well as huge stocks of waterproof jackets and pants
- all kinds of travel accessories, maps, books, rucksacks, backpacking, trekking and mountaineering gear
- other services include equipment hire and waterproof testing.
- a spacious modern store to wander around with educated, trained staff close at hand
- online shopping at http://www.georgefisher.co.uk/products/products.asp
Abraham’s Tea Room
The iconic store, built in 1887, also contains Abraham’s Tea Room named after the famous photographic business, once situated in the building. So enjoy a locally-sourced meal or just enjoy a tea or coffee and a cake whilst you decide on your purchase.
How to get there/Contact
Keswick is not a large place and ask the vast majority of people in town where George Fisher is, and you will be pointed in the right direction. Within the pedestrianised zone of Lake Road, it is a 2 minute walk from the Market Square.
