The Lake District
You are here: Home > The Lake District
It was a love of hiking the Azores Islands which inspired Sarah to create Archipelago Choice back in 1998. When she made the Lake District her home shortly afterwards, walking the Lakeland fells similarly inspired Sarah to offer the same exciting, personalised holidays to her new home county.
The breath-taking lakes and mountains of the UK’s oldest National Park are where we spend our free time. Hiking, biking, climbing, sailing…we’re the true experts when it comes to experiencing the beauty and grandeur of the Lake District.
Check out our Lake District holidays or call us today to begin planning your own adventure.
When is the best time to visit the Lake District?
It’s mild in Spring and Autumn, warmest from around May through to October. July, August, Christmas and New Year are the busiest times to visit so we advise booking early.
How do I get to the Lakes?
We encourage all our customers to take a holiday from their cars, and we can add return train tickets to your trip and private transfers with our drivers.
If you’re travelling from outside the UK, we can include return flights from your closest airport, train tickets and/or private transfers.
Do I need travel insurance to visit the Lake District?
We strongly recommend you have travel insurance to cover your medical expenses, baggage loss, accidents, and personal liability.
Can I get WiFi in the Lakes?
All hotels offer WiFi.
Is mobile phone coverage good in the Lake District ?
There’s good mobile reception in all the main towns. Reception can vary when you’re out on the fells.
Do I need to tip guides and drivers?
It’s not expected, but if you feel your guide or driver has done a good job then they’ll always be happy to receive a tip.
How do I book my holiday to the Azores with Archipelago Choice?
We offer two options: either book one of our ‘Best of’ holidays as outlined here on our website. Alternatively, many people choose the bespoke approach where we have a telephone chat and create a personalised itinerary that gives you the unique holiday experience you’re looking for.
How far in advance should I book my trip?
Our advice is to start planning around six to nine months before your visit, as this helps us offer the best value airfares and secure your hotels of choice. However, last minute trips are usually possible if you’re flexible about where you stay.
