When to go

Summer weekends and school holidays fill Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside, and roads over the passes get busy. Spring and autumn are the walkers’ seasons, with bracken turning gold in October. Winter brings snow on the tops and quiet villages, and a hot tub with a fell view is at its best on a cold, clear evening.
