THE Lake District National Park, or ‘The Lakes’ as it’s affectionately known, lies in the English county of Cumbria and in my opinion, the phrase ‘chill-out’ could have been coined with this dreamy place is mind.
The Lakes are the epitome of peace and tranquillity; here you can leave all your troubles behind and indulge in some serious relaxation.
Whether you admire the stunning scenery and jaw dropping views from a boat on the lake or on dry land, you will understand why this place inspired some of England’s greatest artists, poets and wordsmiths.
The chocolate box towns of Ambleside, Bowness-on-Windermere, Keswick and Kendal will welcome you like a long lost friend and it’s so easy to visit them all too on the frequent and convenient boats that ferry visitors around the lakes.
If you’re planning to visit the Lake District with younger family members in tow, then you’re in for a treat…
The World of Beatrix Potter™ in Bowness-on-Windermere is a visitor attraction for all the family.
Explore a magical world where these enchanting tales are brought to life and meet all the characters too, including Peter Rabbit, Mrs Tiggy-winkle and Jemima Puddle-Duck. It’s simply a must if you’re in this neck of the woods and a fun day out, whatever the weather!
There’s plenty going on but if you simply want to take it easy, this beautiful pocket of England is just perfect for romantic strolls or ambient lake cruises.
