What to do in Windermere
There’s nowhere quite like Windermere. We’d suggest sitting down with a cup of tea and view over Lake Windermere and just taking it all in. Here’s what else to do when you’ve done that…
Take a spin around Lake Windermere
Did you know that Lake Windermere is the largest lake in England? Take a pleasure cruise by boat to experience 360-degree views of the spectacular surrounds. It’s the best way to see the town of Windermere.
Feeling ready to take on a more adrenaline-filled adventure? Rent canoes, kayaks or speedboats to really get stuck into the water.
Take afternoon tea
One of the delightful quirks of the Lake District is the quaint tea rooms and cafes you’ll see dotted around the region. Take the opportunity to wind down and settle into your holiday with tea, cake and sandwiches. We even serve afternoon tea on our menu!
Take to Scafell Pike
For some people, the idea of kicking back and doing nothing on holiday doesn’t do it for them. If you like to spend your free time taking on physical challenges, have we got one for you. Scafell Pike is England’s highest mountain and is just a short drive from Windermere, making it an ideal place to stay while you take it on.
When you’ve reached victory, climb on down and make your way back to the in-house pub restaurants at our Windermere hotels for a well-deserved pint.
