Itinerary

DAY 1

Meet your coach at your selected pick-up point and travel to Belfast to join the early morning ferry crossing to Cairnryan. On arrival in Scotland, we continue our journey towards the Lake District with a stop at the Gretna Gateway Outlet Village for some free time before arriving at your hotel in Lake Windermere late afternoon. On arrival at hotel check-in, relax and freshen up before dinner.

DAY 2

This morning after breakfast, we will make our way to Lakeside Pier only a few minutes’ walk from hotel to join a Windermere Lake Cruise. Sit back and relax as you admire the stunning scenery as we cruise along Lake Windermere from Lakeside to Ambleside then join your coach for a full day tour of the lakes, sit back and relax as we travel through the Lake district National Park admiring the stunning scenery as we travel. Enjoy some free time in Grasmere before joining a lake cruise from Ambleside to Bowness (90 minutes cruise). Afterwards join your coach as we tour the Lake District National Park and visit Grasmere before returning to our hotel.

DAY 3

After breakfast join your coach. Sit back and relax, admire the beautiful Lake District as we travel to Haverthwaite to board the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Steam train as it cuts through the beautiful scenery of the Lake District taking in the sights and sounds of days gone by. Afterwards travel to visit Sizergh Castle and Gardens – a beautiful medieval house with rich gardens and estate. Later re-join your coach and make your way back to your hotel.

DAY 4

This morning after a leisurely breakfast and checking out, join your coach as we make our journey back to the port of Cairnryan stopping en-route to visit Lowther Castle and Gardens. One of the many treasures waiting to be discovered in the English Lake District, Lowther Castle is a particular gem. Built at the turn of the 19th century on the site of two previous houses, the castle was a grand affair boasting a room for every day of the year. Its gardens were the envy of the north. But in 1957 the castle was demolished. Just the façade and outer walls remained standing and for over half a century, the place was empty – home only to chickens, pigs, and the odd bat. The gardens were lost to wilderness. Today Lowther Castle is one of the most intriguing visitor attractions in the country. Dramatic ruins, gardens within gardens, an adventure playground to rival the best in the land. Afterwards re-join your coach as we continue the journey to the port of Cairnryan to join the evening ferry crossing to Belfast. On arrival, you return to your original joining point.
