"Northern and Middle England has plenty to offer the adventure seeker. The Lake District in Cumbria and the Pennines are two areas that spring to mind when considering activity based holidays but there are plenty of others in this diverse region. Browse the handpicked listings below and you'll get a flavour of what is available. And remember that after a days strenuous activity there can be the warmth of a traditional English Inn or Public House beckoning where you can chat about the day's achievements and enjoy some hearty honest English food and drink. If you are lucky you'll also get to listen to some live music from the region where, in places, traditional culture still has a hold.".
