Cumbria and the Lake District is the perfect family getaway, with something for everyone – regardless of age. And when it comes to where to stay, we’ve got you covered.- It does rain from time to time in the Lake District, but how else did you think we got our fabulous landscapes and those lakes? Still, we’re more than prepared for the occasional downpour, and there’s plenty to do while taking shelter from the elements.
- The Lake District, Cumbria is England’s most beautiful corner in any weather, but there’s something magical about the place when the sun shines. The sun draws out walkers and mountaineers, sailors and cyclists, abseilers and zorbers, zipliners and those looking to sit quietly by a lake and take in the majestic beauty of it all.
