Zoo And Wildlife Parks

With an aquarium, zoos, farm parks, and aviaries, the Lake District is a great place to learn about the wildlife. There are plenty of great spaces in the Lake District for your children to interact with and learn about animals, birds, insects, and reptiles. You can have the opportunity to feed the animals, as well as great facilities and entertainment for children of all ages.

The Lake District is steeped in history and you’ll have a great time discovering more about its past from the abandoned mines around Honister and the ruined abbey of Furness, to the literary landmarks of Dove Cottage and Rydal Mount, both former homes of William Wordsworth. If you’ve brought the kids on holiday with you, make sure you visit The World of Beatrix Potter, a wonderful experience that brings Peter Rabbit, Mrs Tiggy-Winkle and the rest of Potter’s remarkable characters to life. Even if you’ve never read the books, your whole family will be enchanted by the magical world she created during a trip to this attraction.
