The north of the Lake District blends dramatic peaks with quieter valleys. Our North Lake District holiday cottages put you close to popular spots like Keswick and Ullswater, as well as peaceful areas like Caldbeck and the Eden Valley. Choose from traditional cottages, rural lodges and simple shepherd huts; ideal for couples, families or group stays. These are places to slow down, get outside, and enjoy some of the best walking and views in Cumbria, including the ever famous Duke of Portland Boathouse.
