Description
Lakes and Cumbria Today is the best-selling guide to the Lake District and Cumbria, and this year’s edition is full of ideas for places to go and things to see for families, couples, walkers, adventurers, foodies, culture vultures and everyone in between.
Once again, we’ve added new things to do and places to visit, and updated our guides to the villages, towns, lakes, fells and attractions across the Lake District and Cumbria which feature in our 200-plus pages. More than 500,000 copies of Lakes and Cumbria Today have been sold since the guide was launched in 2000, which means we have guided hundreds of thousands of visitors through this beautiful region’s highways and byways, mountains and fells, lakes and streams.
In this edition we take a trip to the coast and explore a newly opened section of the England Coast Path; venture into the great woods and forests of Lakeland; go camping and glamping; take in stunning landscapes in new walks around lakes and tarns; take a foodie tour of the region; take in the amazing street art of Carlisle; and loads more. There’s also more indoor and outdoor activities for the whole family and our tips for thousands of days out.
We’ve also worked with hundreds of businesses and attractions to update the information in the guide – though please try to check online or call in advance as events, timings and booking requirements can change at short notice.
Most importantly, enjoy your time in Lakeland!

We take a family holiday in Ambleside every year, and the first thing we do is buy Lakes and Cumbria Today. It’s our constant companion as we explore this stunning part of the world.
