Love is in the air, and the Lake District, Cumbria, is the perfect place to celebrate. History has been written here, as has some of the most beautiful poetry - and now it’s time to add to your own story.
Wildly romantic landscapes, charming towns and villages, and even cosmopolitan city life await. There are outdoor activities, fantastic bars and restaurants, cultural locations and so much more to discover.
Spend some quality time together, whether that’s on a walk up a Wainwright; an adrenaline fuelled outdoor adventure; or a stroll around some of our friendly local shops.
Sip champagne and gaze at the stars in a luxury lodge or self catering cottage with your very own hot tub; relax in luxurious spa hotels; soak up our history in an impressive castle…whatever type of accommodation you’re after, we’ve got you covered.
After a Michelin starred fine dining experience? You’ve come to the right place. Cumbria has the most Michelin stars outside of London: we’ve got 15 in total, across 13restaurants. Book ahead and enjoy a spectacular meal with the one you love.
Alternatively, relax by the fire in one of the Lake District, Cumbria’s many cosy pubs. Toast the occasion with a Lakeland ale or a locally distilled gin, and gaze into eachothers eyes over some hearty, home cooked food.
❤️ Valentine Inspiration ❤️
