England’s Lake District Resort Escape

7-Day Land Tour Roundtrip From Manchester

Trip Dates: June 6–12, 2026 | October 2–8, 2026

Prepare to wander, dreaming as you go, on this week-long trip to the Lake District. As you explore the dramatic green hills and lovely lakes that characterize Lakeland, you’ll understand why the region became a favorite retreat for Romantic poets and Victorian writers. Find your own inspiration as you cruise the waters of Windermere, experience high tea at a country manor turned luxury hotel and visit quiet lakeside towns. Be transported to an even earlier era, the days of Roman Britain, with a visit to Hadrian’s Wall and the archaeological site of Vindolanda. When you are finished contemplating the past, turn your attention to a more modern lyrical style with a day trip to Liverpool and a celebration of all things Beatles. Your home base will be the HGV’s Pine Lake Resort in Carnforth, where you will stay in lakeside comfort. The resort offers modern accommodations blended with lodge-like coziness to complete your experience.
