Lake District & Cumbria Great Heritage

 HISTORIC HOUSES, GARDENS, CASTLES, MUSEUMS, CULTURAL ATTRACTIONS

We are a county honoured with two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: one at our heart, The Lake District, the other, part of the Hadrianic Frontier, starts at Ravenglass on the Cumbrian coast finishing at Wallsend in the east. One is the result of 500 million years of geological processes while the other is a relative newcomer. As you can imagine, we have a lot of history to share with you. 

So, with thousands of years of stories to discover – which door will you be knocking on?
