Places to see in ( Hawkshead - UK )
Hawkshead is a village and civil parish in Cumbria, England, which attracts tourists to the South Lakeland area. The parish includes the hamlets of Hawkshead Hill, 1.2 miles (1.9 km) to the north west, and Outgate, a similar distance north. Hawkshead contains one primary school but no secondary school and four public houses.
Hawkshead is just north of Esthwaite Water, in a valley to the west of Windermere and east of Coniston Water. It is part of Furness, making it a part of the ancient county of Lancashire. The township of Hawkshead was originally owned by the monks of Furness Abbey; nearby Colthouse derives its name from the stables owned by the Abbey. Hawkshead grew to be an important wool market in medieval times and later as a market town after the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1532. It was granted its first market charter by King James I in 1608. In 1585, Hawkshead Grammar School was established by Archbishop Edwin Sandys of York after he successfully petitioned Queen Elizabeth I for a charter to establish a governing body.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, Hawkshead became a village of important local stature. Poet William Wordsworth was educated at Hawkshead Grammar School, whilst Beatrix Potter lived nearby, marrying William Heelis, a local solicitor, in the early 20th century. Much of the land in and around the village is now owned by the National Trust. The National Trust property is called Hawkshead and Claife.
With the formation of the Lake District National Park in 1951, tourism grew in importance, though traditional farming still goes on around the village. Hawkshead has a timeless atmosphere and consists of a characterful warren of alleys, overhanging gables and a series of mediaeval squares. It is eloquently described in William Wordsworth's poem The Prelude.

Lake District, England - Visit Britain - Unravel Travel TV
The Lake District is a mountainous region in the Northwest of England its barren fells fast flowing streams and vast spans of water make this a place like no other in Britain. During the last Ice Age glaciers carved deep valleys in which nestle beautiful lakes like Coniston water. Other lakes of the district include Lake Windermere, England's largest natural freshwater lake. It's over a kilometre wide almost 17 kilometres long and up to 64 metres deep, it contains over 340 million cubic litres of water. As used expect plenty of river cruises and water sports activities can be found throughout this region. Beatrix Potters association with the Lake District has always been one of the big tourist draws to this most beautiful part of the country. In the village of Hawkshead many of Beatrix Potters original illustrations are kept, in this charming gallery. Beatrix sealed her bond with the Lake District by using the money from her books to buy a property called Hill Top Farm. She began to buy land specifically so that developers couldn't spoil what she thought the most beautiful countryside. When she died she left everything to the National Trust which at the time was one of the biggest legacies it had ever received, about 4000 acres of land, 14 farms and other assorted cottages including hilltop house itself donated so that the national trust would look after it forever for everyone. Today the Lake District is protected as a National Park but it remains the unspoilt landscape it always been thanks in at least some small part to the efforts of one Miss Beatrix Potter.

Places to see in ( Ambleside - UK )
Ambleside is a town in Cumbria, in North West England. Historically within the county of Westmorland, Ambleside is situated at the head of Windermere, England's largest water. The town is within the Lake District National Park. Ambleside is also home to the headquarters of Brathay Exploration Group, a youth charity based just beyond Clappersgate on the road to Hawkshead.
Ambleside is administered by South Lakeland District Council and forms part of the Lakes civil parish but from 1894 to 1935 it was a separate urban district council. ‘Steamers' (in reality diesel-powered ferries) run to Bowness-on-Windermere and Lakeside offering fine views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Ambleside is a base for hiking, mountaineering and mountain biking. It has a number of hotels, guest houses, pubs and restaurants as well as shops. In particular, there are a number of shops selling equipment for walkers and climbers in the town. Ambleside is a popular starting point for the Fairfield horseshoe, a hillwaking ridge hike.
Ambleside features an oceanic climate, but being within the Lake District it does experience higher annual rainfall than the average for the North-West of England. Parts of the town have been flooded on numerous occasions, with the River Rothay breaking its banks during Storm Desmond in December 2015.
