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.
