The Cumbrian town of Kendal is a bustling shopping centre with good restaurants and attractions, and will be forever linked with its famous mint cake. It makes for a great base for exploring the nearby Lake District, and towns such as Windermere, Keswick and Grasmere are all must-see destinations.

Admire the beautiful surrounding scenery from the shores of the lake, where Cat Bells looms over the waters on the opposite side of the lake.
We also call at pretty Grasmere, in the very heart of the Lake District, home to the tiny Sarah Nelson’s Grasmere Gingerbread Shop.
Explore Kendal at your leisure - this market town is a delight to explore and is home to the famous Kendal Mint Cake!
Or perhaps join our optional excursion to the Yorkshire Dales. We’ll venture to pretty Sedbergh, hugging a lovely spot between the Howgill Fells and the Dales, and then continue onto Hawes, home to the famous Wensleydale Cheese.
with an extra experience
Our excursion today takes us into the Lake District and to its most famous town and lake, Windermere, which is truly magnificent.
The lakeside town is split in two, with Windermere Town around 1.5 miles from the lake at the top of a steep hill, and the village of Bowness-on-Windermere that sits on the eastern shore. We also call at Ambleside at the head of the lake - a popular town with walkers and filled with independent shops and cafes.
Return home.
You will stay for four nights at the County Hotel in Kendal.

Did not enjoy having 2 feeder coaches to get to my destination. Picked up the mini bus locally at 8am, and after 3 other pickups arrived at South Mimms service station and then on to Rugby Service station for another change of coach. Finally arrived at the hotel at 6.15pm. Evening meal was delayed to 7pm, but still a bit of a rush. Waitress service was very slow at the hotel, no reason what order you were given your meal. Still had to wait over half an hour if you didn't order a starter. Good entertainment though and reasonable prices at the bar. Optional excursion very good value for money. Another delay on the homeward journey. Arrived at Rugby at 1pm. Coach and driver from Scotland didn't arrive until 2.15pm and then he had to have a break until 3pm

Our only comment is that breakfast was rushed because the tours left early ,30 min later start time on the trips would have been better
