Villas in the Lake District

Enjoy the most welcoming villas in the Lake District

You cannot miss the opportunity to get to know the Lake District of England, it is an area rural within the Cumbria region, in the northwest of the country, famous for its legendary landscapes in which lakes, mountains and valleys merge with each other and where it is easy to think that time has frozen. As if this were not enough, since July 2017 the Lake District has been a World Heritage Site, the first national park in the whole of the United Kingdom to achieve such status. Interesting! Isn't it?

Villas with spectacular views

The Lake District has managed to captivate all kinds of people, from painters, writers, musicians, etc. Its picturesque landscapes, and sheep grazing everywhere are part of the elements that you will evoke in the villas. Some buildings have a more cave-like style in keeping with the surrounding landscape, but you will also see others with more elaborate designs, but natural beauty always predominates. Feel part of an impressionist painting in the Lake District!

Travellers and activities

Lake District for families

Go to the town of Brownness on Windermere. This is a favourite destination for many who venture to visit the Lake District. On the shores of one of the UK's most famous lakes, it's a good place for you to eat ice cream, take a boat trip, and rent a row boat or just people-watch. The breathtaking views make up for how stressful coming and going tourists can be

Lake District for big groups

Enjoy hiking the Cat bells Lakeland Walk. This will be one of the most beautiful routes you will see in Keswick. It is simple, and you can start it from the base of the mountain, there is a bus line from the town, or you can walk from there. The views of the lakes and the entire massif are beautiful, but you will surely like the mountain itself.

Lake District is the birthplace of poets such as William Wordsworth, Samuel Coleridge, Thomas de Quincey and John Ruskin, and the writer of children's stories Beatrix Potter.
