Lake District Windermere, England

Windermere is the most popular lake in the Lake District of England and serves as the gateway to the Lake District. ‣ It is also the largest natural lake in England, a typical ribbon lake, 18.08 km long and 1.49 km at its widest. ‣ The sightseeing is mainly divided into the following parts: ❶ Windermere Town: The entrance to the Lake District, featuring a steam train station where you can experience an old-fashioned steam train. The terminus has a children's forest playground. ❷ Bowness-on-Windermere: The busiest area with many hotel options, boat rides available, and the Beatrix Potter Museum. We stayed at the Macdonald Old England Hotel in Bowness-on-Windermere, which is built by the lake. 3 Strolling around Bowness Town. ❹ Windermere Lake Cruise: A must-do activity for touring Windermere Lake and also serves as transportation. We took the round-trip boat to Bowness. After disembarking, you can explore the town and experience the life of the English in a small town. You can also choose a one-way ticket to Lakeside Windermere Landing to take the steam train.
