- South Lakes Wild Animal Park
- One of the best places in Cumbria to see a great mix of animals - and you can get really close to many of them
- Lake District Coast Aquarium, Maryport
- This is the biggest aquarium in West Cumbria - great for a day out - and you could combine it nicely with a visit to the Roman Museum
- Senhouse Roman Museum
- An interesting museum with a good collection of Roman artefacts and exhibits.
- The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction
- A great place to visit with young children with lots of fun things to do and see - in Bowness-on-Windermere
- Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway
- I did this the other day - a lovely trip up the side of Eskdale by train - I even wrote a piece about it. You can take the train up and walk down or hire a bike to cycle.
