Day 2
After breakfast, we make our way to Haverthwaite Station, here we enjoy a nostalgic steam train journey on the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway to the south of Lake Windermere and Lakeside pier. At Lakeside, we board our boat to enjoy a 40 minute cruise around the south of Lake Windermere to Bowness. This Victorian town has been popular with tourists since the mid-1800s and is briming with art galleries, antique shops, independent gift shops, and local artisan food producers. We join our coach late afternoon for the return journey by road to Newby Bridge. Dinner in the hotel.

A full day circular excursion today via Kendal and Shap Fell to Penrith, from here it's a short journey to Dalemain House & Gardens for a tour of the mansion, learning all about its past and the Dalemain World Marmalade Awards! We have time to explore the beautiful gardens at leisure before enjoying a cream tea. We then make our way to Pooley Bridge for an hour cruise on the Ullswater Steamers to Glenridding, sit back and enjoy the gorgeous scenery of the Lakes. We complete our day with a drive over the spectacular Kirkstone Pass. Dinner at the hotel
Day 4
We enjoy a scenic drive through the picturesque Lake District today, travelling north via Windermere then Ambleside, the head of England's largest natural lake where we can spot the pretty Bridge House as we pass. We then pass Grasmere and Thirlmere on our way to Keswick, explore this lovely market town with plenty of shops, restaurants and museums to browse. Don't have a big lunch as we finish our week off with an amazing afternoon tea in a stationary railway carriage at the disused Bassenthwaite Lake station. Dinner on our return to Newby Bridge.
