National Parks of Britain
 Lake District National Park, Cumbria: Birthplace of the Cumberland Sausage, the Lake District is Britain’s largest National Park, displaying a mountainous landscape punctuated by deep valleys and crystal lakes. It is also home to Lake Windermere, Britain’s largest lake and a haven for sailing, fishing, mountain biking and hill climbing.
The Lake District also offers speeding rivers, low valleys, towering forests and impressive mountainside waterfalls while red deer and Osprey are just a few of the local residents you may find going about their day to day business within the dramatic landscape.
Often forgotten, the Lake District also covers a stunning stretch of the Peninsular Coast with beautiful farmland, mud flats and salt marshes creating a wildlife haven in a virtually uninhabited location.

 Yorkshire Dales National Park, Yorkshire & Cumbria: The Yorkshire Dales stretch across the central Pennines covering areas of North Yorkshire and Cumbria and offer some of the best caving in the UK with a subterranean utopia beneath the earth. The landscape is chequered with pathways for walkers, cyclists and horse riders to explore the area on short or long-distance routes, the Pennine Way, Dales Way and the Coast-to-Coast Walk all pass through the Yorkshire Dales, as does the world famous Settle-Carlisle railway line.
Afterwards relax in historic towns, picturesque villages and enjoy a bit of Northern hospitality. Fresh local produce and crafts are a few of the delights available from markets and shops across the park whilst historic buildings, gardens and numerous attractions make it much more than just a sports enthusiasts playground.
