Cumbria and the Lake District

Cumbria & the Lake District Holiday Guide 2009

Dramatic and dynamic. Peaceful and graceful. The Lake District is a land of natural extremes.

Wild peaks reflecting in tranquil lakes. Windswept crags contrasting with gently undulating slopes. Dense forest opening onto sprawling, bracken cloaked hills. Extremes of terrain mean extremes of pursuit. From a lakeside amble to a full-scale trek on England’s highest mountain. Whether you sail, swim, windsurf, kayak, walk, climb, paraglide, gorge scramble, mountain bike, hang glide, quad bike, horse ride or simply sit and watch, you can’t help but fall in love with this land of diversity.

Elegant and extravagant. Tasteful and discerning. The Lake District is a land of luxury and comfort.

Come down from the fells to relax in the comfort of quality accommodation. Try Cumbrian specialities in cosy tearooms, contemporary cafés, welcoming pubs and Michelin-starred restaurants. Explore market towns, country houses, art galleries and heritage sites. Join in with local festivals. Hide away at premium spas. Retreat to a friendly B&B, quaint cottage or stunning boutique hotel. Balance the rugged outdoors with a few well-deserved refinements and enjoy this life of luxury.
