Lake District Coach Holidays

National Holidays runs great-value Lake District coach holidays that show you the finest scenery in England without you having to plan a thing.

This is a landscape that has inspired poets and painters for centuries: shimmering lakes, towering fells, tumbling becks and stone villages that look like they've grown out of the hillsides. We pick you up from a pickup point near you and handle the driving, which is just as well, because the Lakes' narrow passes are no place for a stressful drive.

Once you're there, our holidays come with a comfortable hotel, your meals and a programme of scenic excursions, so all you have to do is sit back and take in the views. Windermere, Keswick, Grasmere, a cruise across the water and a slice of gingerbread: it's the Lake District done properly. You just turn up and enjoy it.

Coach Trips to the Lake District and Cumbria

Here's how it works. From a pickup point near you, we take the strain out of getting to Cumbria, so there's no long drive and no white-knuckle mountain passes to tackle yourself. Most of our Lake District coach holidays are based in a comfortable hotel in or around the National Park, with dinner and breakfast included and a programme of scenic excursions to the best of the region.

Expect the big-name lakes and towns: bustling Keswick on Derwentwater, Wordsworth's Grasmere, pretty Ambleside and Bowness-on-Windermere, often with a relaxing lake cruise included too. Many trips also take in the dramatic Kirkstone Pass and the market town of Kendal.
