Take advantage of the last of the summer sunshine with a Lake District autumn break. Decorated in vibrant colours, there’s no better time to visit the UK’s most popular National Park.

Why choose a Lake District autumn break?

With crunchy leaves underfoot and vibrant colours decorating the landscape, an autumn holiday in the Lake District showcases the natural beauty of the National Park in a whole different perspective.  Embark on an adventure through the rolling countryside, following the trees as they turn their leaves to autumnal shades. If you’re up for the challenge, climb to the summit of Scafell Pike ahead of the cooler weather, or take advantage of what’s left of the lighter nights with an evening boat trip on Lake Windermere.

Places to visit from your Lake District autumn holiday cottage

There’s so much to see and do on your visit to the Lake District, and paired with the vibrant colours of the autumnal season, you’re sure to be lost for words. Visit the town of Bowness-on-Windermere, where you can soak in awe-inspiring views across England’s largest lake. Bassenthwaite is equally as beautiful, whilst Kendal offers an exiting change of pace. Literary fans will delight with a trip to Grasmere, home to Wordworths Dove Cottage, whilst Ambleside hosts Beatrix Potters Hill Top House. Whatever the weather, you’re sure to make unforgettable memories with a Lake District autumn break.

Types of Holidays

Immerse yourself amongst shades of burnt orange with this wonderful collection of rural cottages in the Lake District. If you’re looking for the best views, these lakeside cottages are idyllically positioned, whilst these luxury cottages are of the highest quality. If the weather isn’t on your side, a cottage with an open fire is the perfect space to cosy up, and your four-legged friends are welcome at these pets go free holiday homes.

If you're still undecided, why not explore this range of October half-term stays? You might just discover a similar escape, with plenty of family-friendly getaways to enjoy this cosy season.
