Why choose an October half term holiday in the Lake District?

The kids are off, Summer is long gone and you’re in desperate need of a getaway. We’ve got you covered with this wonderful collection of October half term cottages in the Lake District. Where better to whisk the little ones away than the Lake District National Park? As one of the countries most popular natural landscapes, you won’t be short on things to see and do here, whether it be adventuring through the fells, exploring sleepy Lakeland villages, or visiting historic and literary landmarks. These October half term holiday cottages in the Lake District boast cosy living quarters equipped with all the essential amenities, some of which enjoy luxury interiors, bubbling hot tubs and warming woodburning stoves.

Places to visit during an October half term break in the Lake District

With so much to see and do throughout the National Park, you’re sure to be kept busy on an October half term Lake District holiday. Head to the twin towns of Bowness and Windermere, both idyllically positioned on the shores of Lake Windermere. Here you can enjoy a leisurely cruise on the water, enjoy a bite to eat at one of many eateries or peruse the streets for a spot of retail therapy. If you’d prefer to explore the great outdoors, the Grizedale Forest sits nearby, boasting miles of sprawling countryside. There’s also Ullswater, where you’ll find exciting water sports opportunities, and the charming town of Keswick is a must every Thursday and Saturday for the outdoor market.

Types of Holidays

Whatever your preference, you’re sure to find an October half break in the Lake District to suit your wants and needs. Bring your loveable pooch along in one of these dog friendly cottages, or treat the kids to a spot of luxury with a cottage with a hot tub.
