Lake District Cottages are some of the most popular out of all the cottage holiday resorts in the United Kingdom, mainly because in general the Lake District offers one of the widest variety of activities for holiday makers in Britain. Because of its unique landscape of mountains, valleys and lakes, the Lake District offers loads of different water sports, climbing and water activities.
For the young and active there are a lot of physically grueling sports to try. These range from rock and mountain climbing, to white water rafting, sailing and mountain biking.
For the hundreds of older people that book secluded Lake District Cottages further North there is still ample things to do, from relaxing in the countryside to long scenic walks through the valleys and along the many designated trails. Instead of going 60mph down a volatile river why not have peace and quiet on a lake cruise?
For younger children that may not be old enough to take up any physical activities, but are still full of beans you may want to take them around one of the wildlife parks or aquariums to see some of the animals that are only thriving in the Lake District such as the Red Squirrel.
There any many other places to visit that people of all ages can enjoy including museums, pottery plants and art galleries.
When booking holiday cottages Lake District or otherwise there are several things to take in to account. You need to decide on the area you want the cottage to be. This may sound obvious but not all brochures make it clear how close you are to certain activities that you may want to undertake. Its all good being close to Hadrians Wall, but its not necessarily close to the lakes. Secondly you need to consider whether you want to go self catered, bed and breakfast or full bored and lodgings. The majority of cottages are rented out with no extras at all, so you may want to take a good amount of food if you choose not to eat out. Unlike a lot of holiday resorts the Lake District is not full of restaurants, although you may come across so gorgeous pubs out in the sticks.
If you are looking for sun sea sand and sangria then the Lake District isnt for you. But if you want to experience the best natural beauty that UK has to offer then the Lake District and Lake District cottages should be high on your list.
