Scenic Lake District Rail, Sail & Tails

Itinerary

Day 1 We take a leisurely journey North to our hotel in Kendal. What better
time is there to visit this wonderful area.

Day 2 Our first visit today is to Keswick with free time to explore its wide array
of shops and galleries. We then travel to the small traditional picturesque
Lakeland village of Grasmere, surrounded by fells, lakes and tarns. Here you
will find the grave of William Wordsworth. Close to the village is the lake
where the poet often sat describing it as “the loveliest spot that man has
found”.

Day 3 Today we travel to Haverthwaite to board the steam train to travel to
Lakeside at the Southern most tip of Lake Windermere. We board the boat
for a cruise on Lake Windermere to Bowness. Here we will visit the World of
Beatrix Potter a self- guided tour of the exhibition and garden.

Day 4 Today we take a scenic drive visiting the tiny village of Hawkshead
loved by both Wordsworth and Potter. You will find the Beatrix Potter
Gallery here. This afternoon we make our way back to Kendal for free time.
It is a nice old market town with beautiful, cobbled streets and gorgeous
little pubs. Try some Kendal Mint Cakes.

Day 5 A fond farewell to this well-loved hotel and stunningly beautiful area,
comfort stops en route.
