We are finally visiting the Lake District, one of the most popular National Parks in the UK and a place that has been recommended frequently by viewers. In this video, we visit Grasmere and try some delicious gingerbread, stroll around the town of Keswick, have afternoon tea in a very cool train, visit the lovely town of Ambleside, and so much more. One of our favorite spots was Buttermere Lake, a beautiful gem with no crowds. The still waters and surrounding fells were incredibly peaceful. We of course also had to visit Windermere, the town that shares a name with Windermere, Florida where we used to live. Overall, we had an amazing time exploring the beautiful Lake District. From the rolling green valleys to the crystal clear waters, it's easy to see why it's one of the most beloved places in the UK.

Of all the KZfaq videos of Americans visiting our little but interesting island, yours are by far the most wonderful and inclusive. Your constant enjoyment and passion of everywhere you visit rekindles my love for the country that has been my home and birthplace for 50 years and that I've slightly grown to take for granted. There is SO much more to Britain than godawful London and you two have certainly tried to see every nook and cranny! Informative and fun, they're great little travelogues. Keep doing what you're doing and being who you are 🙂

The Ambleside apple store was where the very early computers were made. After the great storm of 1796 the roof was damaged and began to leak. A passing nursery school teacher by the name of Mary Thistletwaithington-blythe saw the danger and rushed to the nearest pub, grabbed as many raincoats as she could and proceeded to make waterproof covers for the stock. Thus the Apple Mac was born.

The Pencil Museum near Keswick is surprisingly good. It sounds very prosaic but actually quite fascinating - graphite pencils didn't exist before the 1500s when they found a huge pure deposit near the town, and 'black lead' was this amazing new mysterious wonder material like it had just fallen from space. For over a century every pencil in the world had graphite from Keswick, and even after some Germans figured out how to make it synthetically, Keswick graphite is still considered the best in the world.

The standing Stones near Keswick should not be missed, there is an enchanting atmosphere about the place. A boat trip on windermere is quite nice too. But my favourite place is Wast water on the west side of the district. The deepest lake in England I believe with the tallest mountain in England as it's backdrop scenery Scafell Pike. Just beautiful! 👀👍🇬🇧

The grey houses in the Lake District are actually made of slate which is blasted from the mountain side. It comes in a green grey, and grey, also a blue shade. Next time you come to the Lake District you need to visit Coniston where Donald Campbell who attempted the fastest water speed but sadly died in his attempt. His vehicle has been restored and is in the village museum along with old arrow heads etc.

You should think about getting or looking at the seven volumes of A Wainwright's Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells. Alfred Wainwright was actually an accountant, in fact the Borough treasurer of Kendal. But in his spare time over 13 years he wrote by hand (not typed) these seven books giving all the routes of accents, by walking, to the summits of most, if not all of those mountains you saw, and they are now known as 'Wainwrights' all 216 of them. The first was published in 1955 and there have been three revisions over the years but they considered the best ever made. In your first first minutes from Buttermere you had Haystacks in your view, this was his favourite mountain and his ashes rest by the side of Innominate Tarn near the summit.

Hello you lovely couple, I started following you on your first trip to the UK and have enjoyed accompanying you on your travels ever since! I'm half British and, when in the UK, spend most of my time in the London area. One of the most interesting things I've enjoyed about your videos is the fact that you have proven what I've been saying for years - on the whole, the food on offer in the UK is amazingly varied and actually really good (with fewer exceptions than one might think!). The reputation that the UK had about having terrible food is really outdated, and I thank you both for proving that you can find good and interesting food ALL OVER THE UK. Wishing you both happy travels! Love from Malta (Mediterranean)

The Lake district is an amazing place. It was formed after glaciers gouged out the land in the last ice age, hence mountains and lakes. My favorite place is lake Ullswater. The hotel? The Sharrow Bay Hotel, at Pooley Bridge where sticky toffee pudding was allegedly invented.. Look at their menus Guys for a special treat to have, the warm breads out of the oven etc.

I’m sorry to have to tell you this but Sharrow Bay closed down a few years back, it just never recovered from lockdown. Sticky toffee pudding, pretty sure that was invented in Cartmel, but there’s probably half a dozen villages staking that claim. You are right about Ullswater though, cracking place

Little bit of explanation about the pet macaw, I think you said? There is a community of parrot owners across several places in the UK and they let them out to spread their wings for a bit, There was a situation not so long ago where a macaw got stolen by a driver and eventually returned passed away (In London), then another where one was attacked by a hawk and the owner got stuck up a mountain trying to rescue them (In Scotland I think?)!

Awesome to see you made it to the lakes! My wife and I moved up here last year and we absolutely love it! We went to the pet shop and the herdy store the first time we came here on holiday! Next time you’re here check out the herdwick experience at yew tree farm near coniston. (Have a look at our previous videos). You learn all about the herdwick (herdy) sheep and then you can meet them and pet them! It’s a super experience! There are so many other hidden gems in the Lake District. Get in touch if you’d like to come back and we can throw you some recommendations! Also did you know there is only one official lake in the Lake District! Bassenthwaite Lake. All other “lakes” are waters or meres. So happy to see you had fun but please come back as you’ve missed so much!

I love the Lake District. I’m lucky to have a friend who has a lodge in Grange over Sands ( South lakes.) Cartmel is a lovely village near there. Grange itself is pretty (Victorian.) A great place to explore the lakes, though. A favourite for Beatrix Potter and Wordsworth fans I think is Hawkshead.. one of the prettiest villages in the Lakes. Another favourite of mine is Eskdale.A great place for walking in the woodlands or taking a miniature steam train. It’s also where you can start a hike to Scafell Pike (although its the highest mountain in England!) Wherever you go in the Lakes, however you’ll always come across the most beautiful scenery including what you’ve shared with us today x

I love the lake district and live not far away so visit regularly. I recognised all the places in this video, but I spend most of my time on the hills rather than the busy towns. Assuming hiking up hills is not your thing, here are some places with wonderful views that don't involve much effort: Castlerigg Stone Circle (close to Keswick), an ancient stone circle surrounded by mountains, but you can park right next to it. Surprise View for views over Derwentwater - there's a National Trust car park there. If you don't mind a fairly gentle uphill walk of less than a mile, you can't beat the view from the top of Latrigg over Keswick and Derwentwater - an easy walk from Underskiddaw car park. You should also have a trip on a boat, I recommend the Ullswater Steamers, I think Ullswater is the most scenic lake and is less busy than Windermere.

I first visited in 1965, when I was a Senior Scout. We camped by Coniston Water, on Torver Common. In my Twenties and Thirties, I was a weekend regular at the National Trust Langdale campsite. Back then, most visitors were young people who came there to climb and walk and to enjoy a sing song in the Hotel in the evenings. It was an essentially affordable pursuit and a happy place for Northerners from the grimy cities. Gone now, the little tents, bicycles and vans. Replaced by "Glampers" in 4x4s with deep pockets, able to pay the rip off prices.

That is a shame. I know there are some places not as busy there, but I'm sure it's not what it used to be.

Beautiful. My family all live in the Lake District, and my grandma came from Cockermouth, so this brought back lovely memories and made me miss home! Hard to get around in winter though.

Bassenthwaite Lake is the only officially named lake in the whole of the Lake District! That's because the rest are either meres or waters.

Our beautiful green Lake District. Most wonderful place on earth. I remember emailing you over a year ago suggesting a visit to the Lakes so I’m delighted to see you’ve both been. There are many charming hotels that serve incredibly tasty food all over the Lakes, and walks galore, too! It’s so unbelievably quaint, and breathtaking - it’s movie like. Hawkshead Village is small but so charming. Driving around the Lakes and exploring off the beaten track is a delight. Living just over an hour away, we often visit there and then drive a short journey up to Dumfries & Galloway in S.W Scotland where we take the dog along the stunning sandy coast for him to stretch his legs. It’s normally always quiet all year round and has a lovely climate - even has tropical gardens. If you’ve never been - I urge you to check it out. If you love books - check out Wigtown. There you can run a book shop via Airbnb that has a flat above. There is a waiting list - which I’m on so maybe one day in a couple of years, I’ll be there for the week running the shop. Keep up the good work and thanks for travelling the UK. Enjoy!

Ken Russell used to have his film premieres there I think at Zeffirellis Cinema. Remember was there in 90's and bumping into Daniel Day Lewis who was at the premiere later that evening.

Finally! You guys made it to the Lake District! I live in Lancashire and we love to go as often as possible. My favourite and happiest place in the lakes is Buttermere. A bit off the beaten track up over Honnister pass, but well worth it! Enjoy.x

If you ever go to Cockermouth again . Go to Muncaster Castle . You can book rooms in the old stables for the night. That gives you access to the grounds after the public have left. It's got some spectacular views .
