Cumbria Tourist Information & Visitor Guide

Cumbria is England's second largest county, and home to one of England's best loved National Parks, the Lake District. Also home to the north western end of Hadrian's Wall, Cumbria offers fabulous fells, glorious lakes and part of the Penine Way. With a distinctive, quiet coastline, some lively towns and gorgeous villlages it's well worth exploring beyond the boundaries of the Lake District.
