South Lakes
England’s longest lake, Windermere, continues to be a popular destination for tourists visiting Cumbria. Whether sailing on the lake or climbing the fells, the splendour of the area is unsurpassed.
To the north of Windermere is some of the best fell walking in the UK including the Langdale Pikes in the awesome Langdale Valley. For something less strenuous, amble around the lanes of the village of Grasmere - famed for being the home to the poet William Wordsworth. An excellent view over the village, and of the ‘mere’ of the same name, can be achieved from Brackenfell just to the east of the village.
