Holiday in the lake district…?
Me and my boyfriend want to go to the lakes end of august for our holidays. Any ideas of places to go and hotels/cottages/b&bs to stay?
I live in the lake district and theres a tonne of them, also remember that lake windermere is actually in bowness-on-windermere technically, so dont think you’ll be right next to the lake in windermere. Windermere will be packed with tourists and really isn’t the best lake in the district anyway, not many locals think it’s a nice place and drug and crime rates are high, try coniston, it’s much nicer, much less busy, theres more local shops that arent tourist orientated, less mainstream hotels and traffic and the scenery basically takes a dump on lake windermere. It’s not much further along, about 20 minutes drive.
Just google accommodation and loads will come up, theres also a letting holiday agent I know of called ‘lake lovers’ try their website, they specialise in lets for holidaying couples.
Also the night lifes pretty bleak, and in the one all night serving bar in windermere/bowness you need to be a local with papers to get into as tourists have caused so many problems. Try Kendal or Kirkby Lonsdale for a nice meal or night out.
