Places to visit from Luxury Lake District Cottages
With so much to see and do from these luxury Lake District cottages, you won’t struggle to fill up your itinerary with great ideas from the day you arrive until the day you leave. Arguably one of the region’s biggest and most notable attractions is the fantastic Lake Windermere, the largest in the Lake District and England for that matter.
Along the banks of the lake, you’ll find some of the region’s best towns, the namesake town of Windermere being amongst the most popular for visitors. Here you’ll find a great selection of country pubs and restaurants, as well as a host of attractions like Brockhole Visitor Centre and The World of Beatrix Potter to name just a couple.
Another brilliant place to consider visiting is the town of Keswick, situated a few miles north along the banks of Derwentwater, another one of the region’s famously large lakes. With a rich history dating back to the Medieval period, this town is home to amazing attractions like the Derwent Pencil Museum and the Keswick Museum, as well as the weirdly wonderful Puzzling Place that’s packed full of mind-boggling optical illusions.
As well as all this, being a mostly rural region, you’ll find an almost endless amount of walking trails to embark on from these luxury cottages in the Lake District. Ranging in various degrees of difficulty, some of the most popular routes include the Loughrigg Fell Circular which takes you around the outskirts of Ambleside and the Windermere Circular, a much tougher trail that takes you around the entire edge of the region's largest lake.
