Whether you’re bringing the little ones for their first Allerdale adventure or want to reward the teenagers after weeks of home schooling, a family break to West Cumbria is a great idea.
You’re going to want to let off some steam after weeks of lockdown and you need a safe space to do it. Whinlatter Forest Park, between Cockermouth and Keswick, is a fabulous place to start. There are mountain bike routes for all abilities, easy marked paths through the trees, and Gruffalo statues for you to find. You can even download an app and go wildlife spotting.
