If Christmas and New Year have left you feeling frazzled and worn out, then a January getaway can be just the thing to recharge your batteries. Visiting somewhere with a slower pace of life and picturesque landscapes is a brilliant way to destress and inspire you for the year ahead.
You don’t have to travel far for a tranquil getaway, though, as there are peaceful locations you can visit on our doorstep which are guaranteed to nourish your soul. The Lake District has some of the most beautiful scenery in the country and it’s only a short drive from Greater Manchester.
Nestled in the north-west corner of the Lake District is the small hamlet of Buttermere, situated between the two lakes of Crummock Water and its namesake. If you’re looking for a tranquil place then this is definitely it.
