England’s Lake District National Park is the largest of its kind within the Kingdom. It is home to Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain; Westwater, its deepest lake, and thriving communities like Keswick and Bowness-on-Windermere. With such a large area to cover when visiting the region, there is an abundance of activities or sights to see and experience; the choice is completely yours.

Designed to delight, Kingsbarns’ Whiskey is fruity and floral with every element of the process tailored to the region’s style.
