Holiday Homes in England

England packs a remarkable variety of landscapes into a small country, from rolling southern downs to wild northern moors, but few corners capture the imagination quite like its north-west. That is where you will find us, because Lake District Holiday Homes specialises in self-catering holidays in the Lake District and the wider county of Cumbria, one of the most spectacular regions England has to offer.

Here, within easy reach of one another, lie England's highest mountains and largest lakes, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape of fells and water, alongside historic cities, Roman frontiers, a quiet coast and gentle valleys. It is a part of the country made for getting outdoors, slowing down, and coming home each evening to somewhere comfortable and your own.

While the wider country is full of wonderful places to explore, our collection is focused firmly on the Lake District and Cumbria, the area we know and love best. Browse our holiday homes and discover England at its most beautiful, in the lakes, fells and valleys of the north-west, and find the perfect base for your stay.
