The Lake District is unquestionably one of England's most beautiful regions. A national park of over 800 square miles, it encompasses stunning scenery including imposing mountains, sweeping valleys and tranquil lakes. The area has provided the inspiration for countless poets, artists and writers with its evocative landscape. The Lakes are also a haven for outdoor sports including hiking, climbing, mountain biking, sailing and water skiing. The conference venue is situated in the centre of the National Park with stunning views across Lake Windermere to the Langdale Pikes and has its own water sports centre. Many hiking trails begin nearby and guides will be available to allow everyone to enjoy this unique setting.
Lake Windermere is England's longest lake, stretching 11.5 miles (18.4 km) from Waterhead near Ambleside to Lakeside at its narrow southern end. Wooded slopes dotted with villas line its shores while the water itself is nearly always busy with ferries, yachts, speed-boats and water-skiers.
