Set in the beautiful market town of Ulverston, this festival recreates bygone times with its period costumes, street entertainers and horse-drawn carriages – it’s no surprise this is one of the most popular Dickensian festivals in the country. There is also a magical Christmas market, perfect for finding thoughtful gifts or enjoying tasty treats.
We return back to the hotel in time for our Christmas dinner, complete with a complimentary glass of wine.
Relax on the shores of Derwentwater, or why not join our optional excursion to the popular town of Bowness-on-Windermere?
