Lake District Self Catering Accommodation To Book
The dramatic landscape of the Lake District is like nowhere else in the UK. The hills and valleys are a direct result of the glaciers that ravaged the land millions of years ago. The long mystical lakes, lush green forests and rich moorland, provide acres of wilderness to explore. The Lakes themselves range in size (and popularity) from the largest; Windermere, and Ulswater to little gems such as Buttermere and Grasmere. The Lakes are also a walkers paradise, whether for gentle lakeside rambles, or trekking across the Fells and mountain tops such as ScaFell Pike, Skiddaw and Helvellyn. There is also plenty of history to keep you interested while walking, with Roman remains, ancient stone circles and monuments to English literary greats. Enjoy, for example, a romantic visit to Dove Cottage or Hill Top, the delightful homes of Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter.

The Lake District offers a challenging array of outdoor activities - fell walking, rock climbing, mountain biking, long-distance cycling, golf, fishing, kayaking, sailing and more. The bodies of water that make up the Lake District offer a wealth of water sports, whether boating on Windermere or sailing for hours on end across the calm waters of the many lakes. Take a ramble up the hills for a challenging walk across one of the famous peaks and be rewarded with breathtaking views, and, for the more serious walkers, take on the might of Scafell Pike - England’s highest mountain. For those whose days of sauntering across mountain tops exist only in the memory, why not explore the homes of such diverse literary greats as Wordsworth or Beatrix Potter which are open to the public.
The Lake District is also host to some some charming little towns like Keswick and Grasmere as well clusters of grey-stone villages which have grown up along the shores of the Lakes.
