One of the greatest things about a Cumbrian holiday has to be the lakes. Giving the Lake District National Park its name, an array of beautiful lakes set against the dramatic backdrop of the fells makes for a truly exceptional place to explore. Discover lovely circular walks that skirt the water’s edge or visit the welcoming lakeside towns such as Bowness-on-Windermere for a selection of toothsome eateries with stunning views. Whether you fancy sailing across Coniston Water or a relaxing cruise on Ullswater is more your speed, the gorgeous lakes of Cumbria offer a memorable visit for all.
