Autumn Spa Break in the Lake District
We take a look at Autumn in the Lake District and why it’s the ideal time to book a spa break at our Boutique Spa Suites.
Lake District is Quieter During Autumn
During the busy school holidays, a spa break in the Lake District may still be nice and peaceful, but what about when you go out and about. If you book your holiday in the shoulder months, you can catch the cooler weather before we hit the depths of winter. Autumn isn’t traditionally a time you head to the countryside, so with less people visiting in September and October, you can almost have the place to yourself!
The Colours of Autumn
Ok, so the Lake District in Autumn isn’t going to be completely quiet and why would it be? Especially with those Autumnal colours bringing Cumbria to life once more. The leaves start to fall and a gentle mist across the lakes can mean just one thing, Autumn is here, giving the chance to experience the true beauty of the Lake District.
Autumn Walks in the Lake District
If you want to see the Lake District in all it’s glory, then a healthy Autumn walk is an ideal activity for your package break. That is, of course, if you dare leave your spa suite and hot tub! You only need to reach for a copy of the Pictorial Guides to the Lakeland Fells by Alfred Wainwright to see there’s a wide choice of walks available.
Windermere has the Best Pub in England
However, don’t just take our word for it. Book a package break in Windermere and try out the Crafty Baa for yourself. Having won the AA award for Best Pub in England this little country pub comes with some strong competition. Leave the car at your Windemere spa suite and walk into town, enjoying some the best pubs in the Lake District.
Best Restaurants in the UK
Again, it’s a pretty big claim but then again Michelin Stars aren’t handed out to just anyone. There’s a choice between HRiSHi at Gilpin or L’Enclume at Cartmel. The latter having just been named 2nd best restaurant in the UK by the Good Food Guide.
Famous Residence of the Lake District
Then, of course, there are the numerous famous names to have either lived in the Lake District. Many of whom have left behind a great legacy, but also some wonderful gardens that look stunning during the Autumn months. Whether it’s Dove Cottage, the home of William Wordsworth or Hill Top thanks to Beatrix Potter, there’s plenty to see and do in Autumn at the Lake District.
Autumn Spa Break in the Lake District
When it comes to somewhere to spend Autumn in the Lake District, what could be better than a spa break with your own hot tub? As well as our very own Windermere Boutique Spa Suites, there are even more choices 2 minutes down the road at Aphrodite’s Lodge. Not only that but with the Windermere Tranquil Retreat, you really are spoilt for choice.
