The Cumbria/Lake District
Cumbria and the Lake District is an area brimming with activities. Choose one of the many lakes to partake in some boating activities or cruise around viewing the ground houses overlooking the water.
Alternatively, take a drive and wander around some of the picturesque Lakeland towns and villages, pick up a local speciality souvenir or uncover the heritage of the area.
Windermere / Bowness area
Windermere is the largest natural lake in Britain and is fed by a number of rivers.
Bowness on Windermere is Cumbria’s most popular holiday resort and much boating activity takes place here. Steamers and launches operate from Bowness Bay to Waterhead at Ambleside. At the southern end of the lake, you’ll find Lakeside Pier and the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway and the Aquarium of Lakes.
The National Park Visitor Centre is at Brockhole between Bowness and Ambleside. Opposite Brockhole is Wray Castle and the first Lake District holiday home of Beatrix Potter.
