Romantic Lake District Cottages
Trace the steps of Poet Laureate Wordsworth and fellow Romantic
Poets with a stay in a romantic cottage in the Lake District,
located in one of our most breathtakingly beautiful national
parks.
These dreamy boltholes come in a variety of styles, some small
and snug and full of atmosphere - look out for open fires and
four-poster
beds. Others are chic and contemporary, perhaps with
open-plan living areas. And for the ultimate, starry-eyed treat,
take a look at a cottage with a hot
tub.
Romantic things to see and do in The Lakes..
Glide across the waters of Lake Coniston in sumptuous style
aboard a Victorian Steam Yacht Gondola. Dine in a Michelin-starred
restaurant. Stroll hand-in-hand around the historic topiary gardens
of Levens Hall. Sip Champagne and float across the glittering lakes
and majestic peaks by hot-air balloon. Propose to your loved one
atop England's highest mountain. And if your stay in your
romantic Lakeland cottage happens to fall in April, make note that
it was back in April 1802 when Wordsworth first glimpsed those
'ten thousand daffodils dancing in the breeze' - if you
make your way down to Gowbarrow Park on the northern shores of
Ullswater, with a little luck you'll find them too. What a
wonderfully romantic thing to do!
Of course, you may be just as happy roaming the countryside in
sturdy boots, map in hand, loved one at your side. That's
possible too.
