5 Farmers Markets in Lake District That You Shouldn't Miss

January 15, 2022 Layne Dawes

Cumbria's valleys and fells (as the low mountains are known) are home to idyllic villages, high moorlands and picturesque lakes. Literary buffs will enjoy Wordsworth's Dove Cottage (go in March to see daffodils), and if you've got kids in tow, visit The World of Beatrix Potter. Or just enjoy a leisurely drive through beautiful scenery.

We have been using Orton for years, and it never disappoints - not even when it is closed due to Coronavirus. Waking up to this fact late, I placed orders for chicken and lamb on Good Friday and took delivery on Easter Saturday. Delivery AND smiles! Local food, local people, local happiness.... Thank you, team Orton!

Keswick Outdoor Markets

Reviewed By paulsymonds - Haverhill, United Kingdom

So as far as markets go this is a treat to behold. This market in Keswick is in my opinion what a market should be. Stalls range from handmade wool scarfs, silver jewellery and good quality clothes to special hand made items for the garden (Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz) and Keswick made Gins, Cheeses and Pies. Great market!

5. Cockermouth Sunday Market
