In the North West of England, you’ll find the Lake District, a stunning National Park which is best known for its breathtaking mountain and lake scenery.

Since the Lake District is located in Cumbria, deep in the north of England, the weather can be quite cold and not short of wind and rain. We recommend spending the spring and summer months in the Lake District to ensure milder weather for a day outdoors on the golf course, and even some sunshine. Nonetheless, English weather is never predictable so always remember to be prepared and bring a jacket!
The best way to travel to the Lake District for an ultimate golf getaway is by car because you can bring your own golf equipment and explore the entirety of the National Park with ease. If driving isn’t an option for you, there are also superb train lines spanning all across the county from all over England. The Lake District is a popular staycation destination, as well as being quite the hit with international tourists. For this reason, we recommend you book your stay outside of peak season and school holidays. This way, you can enjoy cheaper prices and empty courses.
