Peel Island. Used by Arthur Ransom as "Wild Cat Island" by transplanting it to Windermere in his "Swallows and Amazons" series of children's adventures. In the care of the National Trust. The view is from the south and the rocks forming the entrance to the "Secret Harbour" can be seen if you zoom into the picture.
