Why we love this
📌 Lake Windermere is England’s largest lake at 10.5 miles long and 1 mile wide; the central spine of the South Lakes. Set sail from Bowness-on-Windermere and enjoy a circular island cruise complete with fascinating commentary on the history and key points of interest around the central part of the lake
📌 A popular destination amongst literary lovers, a trip to the lakes has inspired writers for centuries from the revolutionary works of the Romantic poets to Beatrix Potter’s much-loved tales of Peter Rabbit. See Wordsworth’s daffodils dancing in spring or visit The World of Beatrix Potter at Bowness-on-Windermere
📌 Ramble through the ruins of Kendal Castle and enjoy brilliant views over the historic market town. Once the seat of power of the Parr family; the most notable member being Katherine Parr, sixth wife and survivor of Henry VIII.
