With beautiful rolling countryside and a selection of nearby attractions, Windermere is the perfect destination for your next short break or weekend getaway.

Lake Windermere is just a short walk away from the town and, at 10.5 miles long, it is England's largest lake. The lake itself offers extensive, breathtaking views and offers plenty to do on a short break, from hiring a boat or a kayak to having a relaxing tour on a cruise. For the explorers out there, why not venture across the lake on the ferry and go for a peaceful walk?

Windermere is a small, bustling town and has a variety of shops, cafes and restaurants, perfect for a weekend getaway or mini break. Its train station makes neighboring towns and villages easily accessible for those who'd prefer not to drive. If you still haven't found your perfect break check out these log cabins in Windermere.
