This region in northern England is full of green hills and crystal lakes. There's plenty of outdoor recreation -- hiking, swimming, boating, as well as a bunch of really quaint villages peppered with quirky museums, like the Pencil Museum (home to the world's largest pencil; we loved it), the James Bond Museum, famous ice cream shops, and a remarkable ancient stone circle -- Castlerigg Stone Circle -- in beautiful hilltop surroundings. The Lake District been the home to many famous writers (Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter both left houses behind that you can visit).
For a break from hotels and a memorable countryside experience, consider staying in a Camping Barn (google for listings).
