Honeymooning in the Lake District
Sneaking into your Lake District cottage after your wedding is the perfect way to kick back, relax and just be the two of you. Romance is part of the history of the Lake District with some of the most romantic poets living and writing in the area, and once you see the spectacular scenery together it is not hard to see why poets old and new choose this place to romantically inspire them.
Couples Cottages Lake District
The Coppermines has cottages that are perfect for couples to retreat to, some have great hot tubs, some have great views, some are secluded, and some are in the heart of villages so you will find the perfect spot for you. All come well equipped and are a beautiful place to make your first memories as a married couple.
Here are some of the great reasons the Lake District is popular with honeymooners:
UK Beauty Spot – Many couples choose to have a mini moon in the lakes straight after their wedding day before a long-haul option later. This has become even more popular with the current uncertainties around foreign travel. Newlyweds can fly into Carlisle, get a train into Windermere or drive up in their own cars making the Lakes easy to get to wherever in the UK you are.
Even though you are in the UK, the spectacular scenery of the UNESCO world heritage site makes you feel a million miles from anywhere and the perfect spot for some couple time. No passports, no foreign exchange, no visas – the lake District is simply waiting to welcome you.
Making Memories – May newlywed couples like to do new and exciting things with each other on their honeymoon and there are plenty of adventures to explore in the Lakes. You can hike up England’s tallest mountain, paddle the length of England’s largest lake, or have a thrilling adventure tackling a Via Ferrata. There are opportunities for hot air balloon rides, stargazing, rock climbing and a full range of water sports.
Romantic Places – If you are looking for classic English romance then the Lake District is the place to be, you can visit the home of poet William Wordsworth and if visiting in the spring enjoy the beauty of Daffodils! You can cruise on a Victorian Steam Gondola, have afternoon tea in a country house and dinner in a Michelin starred restaurant.
Every couple is different and the lovely thing about the Lake District is that there are options for every type of couple. Create your own perfect honeymoon or mini moon from the comfort of your Lake district cottage and make memories to last you a long and happy lifetime.
