The lake offers picturesque views, perfect for lakeside walks. Surrounded by lush hills and charming villages, it’s an ideal spot for peaceful retreats and outdoor activities. A true gem in England’s landscape.

Centre Parcs Whinfell Forest Very interesting place, the owner of the hotel is very good, the amiable old man and the old lady, there are performances during the day, the restaurant is decorated in an idyllic style, there will be bears on the bedside of the room, like a fairy tale

Lake District National Park

Beautiful views, lovely cafe’s and places to stay, the lakes as you drive through to Ambleside really made the journey. Even can just do as a nice day trip!

Since we were not driving, the transportation was not convenient, so we chose to take a day tour at the Windermere Visitor Center. According to the tour guide, Willian Wordsworth got the inspiration to write Daffodils at Glencoyne Bay.

Lowther Castle & Gardens

Lauser Castle is a beautiful manor house in the Lake District of England. It was built by John Lowther in the 17th century, so it was named. The castle and garden were once abandoned and opened to the public after being rebuilt in 2000. The flowers here are particularly beautiful and suitable for taking pictures! The staff is also more warm and friendly, and will take the initiative to introduce the history of the castle ~
