Broad Leys, Grade I listed house in Cartmel Fell, England.
The residence showcases white walls, elongated windows, and horizontal lines characteristic of Arts and Crafts architecture near Lake Windermere.
Arthur Currer Briggs, a Yorkshire mine owner and future Mayor of Leeds, commissioned architect Charles Voysey to construct this house in 1898.
The building serves as headquarters for the Windermere Motor Boat Racing Club, reflecting the local traditions of water sports and recreational activities.
Visitors can access the property during selected racing events throughout the year, following arrangements with the Lake District National Park Authority.
The house appeared in both The French Lieutenant's Woman film and an episode of Agatha Christie's Poirot television series.
