For classic English scenery, nowhere
quite compares to the Lake District.
JUSTIN FOULKES / LONELY PLANET ©
With its fells and waterfalls, valleys
and villages, lakes and meadows, it’s
like a postcard that’s come to life.
It’s visited by some 13 million people
every year, but it’s still easy to find
peace and serenity – whether it’s
rowing across a lake, cycling through
the countryside or standing atop
a fell. Pack spare memory cards –
you’ll need them.
