Best Places to Stay on Valentine’s Day in the Lake District

Best places to stay on Valentines Day in the Lake District

With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, where better to spend the most romantic time of the year than the Lake District? In this guide, we highlight some of the best places to stay.

The Lake District is regarded by many as the most beautiful area of England. With its rolling hills, incredible history, picturesque countryside and idyllic locations, it’s hard to think of somewhere better suited to spend Valentine’s Day.

The only difficulty in choosing the best place to stay is the vast choice facing you – there are 1000s of inns and hotels in the area. You could, of course, spend hours trawling the internet. Imagining you having to do this seems a little unfair.

We’ve made it simpler for you by picking six great places that will ensure your special day will be memorable.
