The Lake District

“ The loveliest spot that man hath found.”
William Wordsworth

In the north western corner of England lies ancient Cumbria and the timeless landscapes of the Lake District, also known as the Lakes or Lakeland.
A world apart, but so easy to get to, this is where modern tourism was born, in the shimmering lakes and hushed mountains whose radiant beauty inspired poets and painters to turn nature into art.

Famous for its lakes, forests and mountains (fells), and its associations with William Wordsworth and other Lake Poets and also with Beatrix Potter and John Ruskin.

A landscape of adventure designed to challenge the imagination, from the exhilaration of the summits to the thrill of an open water swim.
