Lake District Hotels

The Lake District National Park in the county of Cumbria is the largest English National Park. It is an area only 30 miles across but has 16 major lakes squeezed between the steeply pitched faces of England's highest mountains. It is almost alpine with waterfalls, picturesque stone-built villages and U-shaped valleys. The heart of the region is Scafell with Scafell Pike at 3,205ft and Great Gable at 2,949ft. The spectacular mountain scenery, forest trails and lakeside paths attract both ramblers and serious hikers. 18 million visitors a year enjoy the park with the villages around Lake Windermere being very popular. The scenery in the northern lakes around Keswick and Ullswater is the most dramatic, here you will find Helvellyn at 3114ft and the infamous Striding Edge. The Lake District has been inspiration to writers, poets and artists. Wordsworth and his fellow poets became known as the "Lake Poets" and the social philosopher and art critic John Ruskin made the Lake District his home.
