Do you often dream of exploration and discovery? Here, if you listen quietly, you may hear the whispers of poet’s words floating by in the gentle mountain breeze, for this is the land of the artists and romantics. In the days of old people like William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter wrote poems and created heart-warming tales that would inspire people for generations to visit this enchanting land.

Lake Windermere is a short drive from the large town of Kendal which was crowned the gateway to the Lakes. You do not have to go far to find exciting things to do; from tree top adventures, see the beautiful lake by boat & visit the motor & boat museums.
