Book a cottage for a short break in the Lake District

Treat yourself to a midweek break or a weekend away to explore the towering fells, tranquil lakes and charming villages of the Lake District. Whether you are planning a two, three or four night stay, why not try glamping in a log cabin, or stay in a swanky apartment with a lakeside view.  Plan a romantic mini break in one of our luxury cottages for that much needed quality time away or arrange the best group reunion of all time - the options are endless with our great self-catering accommodation in the Lake District. 

Don't forget the pooch can come to and stay in great dog-friendly cottages throughout Lakeland.

Explore the Lake District for yourself...

Even if you only have a few days to spare, you can enjoy the amazing scenery, activities and attractions that the Lake District has to offer. There are endless picturesque villages to explore, as well as a multitude of rural locations to discover. The Lake District National Park had walks, cycle routes, hills to climb and lochs to picnic by and the fishing, kayaking and watersports keep you entertained for hours.

The renowned childrens author, Beatrix Potter, held the county close to her heart, summering here every year and taking inspiration from the incredible surroundings. The Lake Distrcict still celebrates her with many attractions to visit and with many cottages around lake Windermere you are able to retrace her footsteps and visit all the places she loved. Just remember to keep an eye out for Peter Rabbit!

Whatever the length of time you plan there is something to fill every part of your day, but we know that down-time is needed too, so perhaps a trip to a local pub is on the cards or a trip to some historic castles. There is something for everyone here so make sure you check out our collection of cottages to rent for a short break in the Lake District.
