Located in north-western England, the Lake District is both a region and a national park. As its name suggests, the area is home to several lakes and other bodies of water, but it also encompasses mountains and hills. The highest point is Scafell Pike, with an elevation of 3,209 ft (978 m). The Lake District is also home to many quaint towns and villages where you can enjoy a meal or peruse local shops. It’s no surprise that this destination is popular both locally and internationally. If you’re looking for a romantic weekend, another option would be one of the many castle hotels that dot the Lake District.
With so many outdoor activities to enjoy, it’s a great place to bring the family pet. If you’re planning to bring them soon, check out this list of top pet-friendly cabins in the Lake District, United Kingdom.
