More about hot tub stays in Cumbria

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.

Getting there

The M6 runs down the eastern side of the county, with junctions for Penrith, Kendal and the A591 to Windermere. Trains on the West Coast Main Line stop at Oxenholme and Penrith, with a branch to Windermere, and the Cumbrian Coast line serves the west. Manchester Airport is about two hours away by road.
