Is 2 days enough for Lake District?
How many days do I need in the Lake District? Great for a weekend break. Focus on one area like Ambleside & Grasmere or Keswick & Derwentwater and enjoy a couple of short walks (such as my favourite Elterwater to Chesters), a good pub or two, and some scenic drives. We have also written a detailed guide on what to do in the Lake District to help decide where to base yourself. Our personal favourite places to stay are Grasmere and Keswick.
