A SCENIC DESTINATION
The Lake District, which is also known as The Lakes, is a mountainous region in the county of Cumbria in the northwest of England. A popular holiday destination, with its lakes, forests and fells (hills or mountains) providing a platform for many outdoor activities, the area is famous for its spectacular scenery. Recently there has been a shift in offerings as the area positions itself as an epicurean destination – craft brewers, distillers, coffee roasteries, cheese larders, farmers’ markets and excellent restaurants abound.
