Lake District, England - Visit Britain - Unravel Travel TV

The Lake District is a mountainous region in the Northwest of England its barren fells fast flowing streams and vast spans of water make this a place like no other in Britain. During the last Ice Age glaciers carved deep valleys in which nestle beautiful lakes like Coniston water. Other lakes of the district include Lake Windermere, England's largest natural freshwater lake. It's over a kilometre wide almost 17 kilometres long and up to 64 metres deep, it contains over 340 million cubic litres of water. As used expect plenty of river cruises and water sports activities can be found throughout this region. Beatrix Potters association with the Lake District has always been one of the big tourist draws to this most beautiful part of the country. In the village of Hawkshead many of Beatrix Potters original illustrations are kept, in this charming gallery. Beatrix sealed her bond with the Lake District by using the money from her books to buy a property called Hill Top Farm. She began to buy land specifically so that developers couldn't spoil what she thought the most beautiful countryside. When she died she left everything to the National Trust which at the time was one of the biggest legacies it had ever received, about 4000 acres of land, 14 farms and other assorted cottages including hilltop house itself donated so that the national trust would look after it forever for everyone. Today the Lake District is protected as a National Park but it remains the unspoilt landscape it always been thanks in at least some small part to the efforts of one Miss Beatrix Potter.

[@Pragwo1f]

IN other precious parts of the world, motor boats such as those seen in this video on Windermere are banned. Surely the National Park authority should look to ban them them in the Lake District.

[@paulm2467]

They're banned on all but 4 of the lakes ( bassenthwaite sailing club is allowed a rescue boat but that doesn't really count). The water supply lakes have even stricter rules that severely limit even rowing boats.
