Overview
On this adventure to the Lake District board a train in London and travel northwest to the area that inspired many of Beatrix Potter's tales.
Begin your day at London's Euston Station and hop on a train to Oxenholme. Gaze out the window as you pass through the calming English countryside with its rolling hills and bucolic landscapes.
Upon arrival in Oxenholme, meet your local guide for a tour through the quaint and artsy Lake District, famous for its literary connections to children's book author Beatrix Potter.
Travel to the charming medieval village of Hawkshead where you'll have time to explore. Hawkshead is a village of cobbled alleys, characterful squares and whitewashed houses in the valley between Windermere and Coniston. It is home to the Old Grammar School, founded in 1585, where the famous Lake District poet, William Wordsworth, studied.
You will see incredible scenery as you venture into the heart of the Lake District from Hawkshead, with plenty of photo stops along the way. Visit the Langdale Valley and Blea Tarn, a beautiful body of water.
Arrive in Waterhead and board a boat for a scenic cruise across Lake Windermere, the largest lake in England. Sit back and take in breathtaking views of the peaceful Lakeland Fells as you glide along toward Bowness Bay.
Complete this bewitching experience in a truly British way—with traditional Cream Tea at the Lindeth Howe Country House Hotel, which was once owned by Beatrix Potter herself.
