Cumbria offers incredible holiday options for every type of visitor. The Lake District National Park, awarded UNESCO World Heritage Status in 2017, is home to England’s highest peak, Scafell Pike, along with its largest and deepest lakes, Windermere and Wastwater—making it a top destination for walking, camping and outdoor adventures.
Carlisle is the region’s main city, while the vibrant market towns of Kendal, Keswick and Cockermouth provide great shopping, food and culture. Nearby, the iconic Hadrian’s Wall offers an unforgettable look into Roman history and remains one of the most visited heritage sites in northern England.
The region is perfect for watersports and boating, with Ullswater and Windermere attracting paddleboarders, kayakers and lake cruisers year-round. Anglers will love the peaceful fishing spots around Hawkshead and Borrowdale, and walkers can explore scenic trails in Eskdale, Pooley Bridge, Grasmere and Ambleside—all ideal bases for Lake District camping and caravan holidays.
