Holiday Homes in Cumbria

Cumbria is one of England's most beautiful and varied counties, and for many people it is simply the home of the Lake District. The national park at its heart is the largest in England and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a glorious tangle of lakes, fells and stone-built villages that has drawn visitors and inspired writers for centuries. It is the reason most people come, and it rarely disappoints.

Yet there is far more to Cumbria than the Lakes alone. To the north lies the historic border city of Carlisle and the great Roman frontier of Hadrian's Wall; to the east, the gentle Eden Valley and the wild high country of the North Pennines; to the south, the Furness peninsula and the genteel resorts of Morecambe Bay; and along the west runs a quiet, characterful coast of Georgian harbours, sandy beaches and Roman remains. In the far south-east, even a corner of the Yorkshire Dales falls within the county.

For a holiday, this variety is a gift. You can spend your days climbing England's highest mountains or strolling a flat lakeshore, exploring castles and abbeys, riding heritage railways or watching the sun set over the Solway. Wherever you choose to base yourself, from a lakeside cottage to a coastal bolthole or a market-town home, Cumbria rewards you. Browse our holiday homes across Cumbria and discover a county with the Lake District at its heart and a great deal more besides.
