The Lake District may have beautiful rolling hills and shimmery lakes, but the climate is not always as attractive. On average, there are 200 wet days in this part of the UK every year, when it rains anywhere from a few minutes to a few days.
Fortunately, a rainy day in the Lake District doesn’t mean you have to miss out on any fun. Rainy weather offers the perfect excuse to indulge in the region’s rich cultural heritage, visit a museum, wander round a historic home or feast your eyes on some art, all of which are often overlooked in favour of outdoor pursuits when the weather is fine.
