Belle Isle is the largest of 18 islands on Windermere, a mere in the English Lake District, and the only one ever to have been inhabited. It is 1 km in length. The Roman governor at Ambleside built a villa on the island. In 1250 it was the seat of the district's Lord of the Manor. It was also a Royalist stronghold during the English Civil War. In 1996 (some records suggest 23 December 1994), Belle Isle House suffered serious damage following a large fire. However, it was repaired and is once again a place of residence.

  • Belle Isle is the largest of 18 islands on Windermere, a mere in the English Lake District, and the only one ever to have been inhabited. It is 1 km in length. The Roman governor at Ambleside built a villa on the island. In 1250 it was the seat of the district's Lord of the Manor. It was also a Royalist stronghold during the English Civil War. Island House was built in 1774 to designs by John Plaw. It is unusual in that it is circular in plan, built of brick, three floors high with a four column portico; it draws closely on the Pantheon, Rome. The house was sold along with the island to the wealthy Curwen family who renamed the island after their daughter, Isabella. It was then sold on to Isabella Curwen by her family in 1781 for £1,720 and was permanently renamed after her. The descendants of Isabella and her husband John Christian Curwen lived on the island until 1993. It is called 'Bell Island' not 'Isabella Island' because of use of the shortened form of Isabella- Bella, which lost the 'a' to become 'Bell', spelt 'Belle' by the Ordnance Survey map of 1925 over the years. It was known locally as the Great Island or Long Holme and formerly known as Longholm, before its renaming in 1774. In 1996 (some records suggest 23 December 1994), Belle Isle House suffered serious damage following a large fire. However, it was repaired and is once again a place of residence. (en)

  • Belle Isle è la più grande delle 18 isole del lago Windermere, nel Lake District inglese, l'unica ad essere mai stata abitata, ed è lunga 1 km. Il governatore romano di Ambleside costruì una villa sull'isola. Nel 1250 fu sede del Signore del maniero. Fu anche una roccaforte realista durante la guerra civile inglese. L'Island House o Roundhouse è stata costruita nel 1774 su progetto di John Plaw. È insolita in quanto a pianta circolare, costruita in mattoni, su tre piani con un portico a quattro colonne; assomiglia molto al Pantheon di Roma. La casa fu venduta, insieme all'isola, alla ricca famiglia Curwen che ribattezzò l'isola con il nome della loro figlia, Isabella. Venne poi venduta a Isabella Curwen, dalla sua famiglia nel 1781, per £ 1.720 e fu definitivamente ribattezzata con il suo nome. I discendenti di Isabella e di suo marito, John Christian Curwen, hanno vissuto sull'isola fino al 1993. Si chiama Bell Island, non Isabella Island, a causa dell'uso della forma abbreviata di Isabella-Bella, che perse la 'a' per diventare Bell, scritta Belle nella mappa dell'Ordnance Survey del 1925. Era conosciuta localmente come Great Island o Long Holme e precedentemente come Longholm, prima di essere rinominata nel 1774. Nel 1996 (alcuni documenti suggeriscono il 23 dicembre 1994), Belle Isle House ha subito gravi danni a seguito di un grave incendio. Tuttavia, è stata riparata ed è ancora un luogo di residenza. (it)
