Laik aims to do the Lake District just right. We’re from here and we live locally, so we know every crag, fell, ghyll and ginnel across our beautiful corner of the world. We exist to share a slice of life in The Lakes in the best possible way – holiday homes filled with comfort and character, and a dash of northern hospitality to make sure you’ve got everything you need for a perfect break.

Nestled in the heart of The Lake District, Grasmere is a picturesque village renowned for its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage. Staying at Oakbank Apartment, located centrally in Grasmere, places you just a short walk away from the village’s bus stop, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. Grasmere is famous for its connections to the poet William Wordsworth, who described it as “the loveliest spot that man hath ever found.” You can visit Dove Cottage, his former home, which is now a museum offering insights into his life and works. Another must-see is the Wordsworth Daffodil Garden, a peaceful retreat perfect for a leisurely stroll. The village is also home to the charming St. Oswald’s Church, where Wordsworth and his family are buried. Adjacent to the church, you’ll find the iconic Grasmere Gingerbread Shop, a historic bakery known for its unique and delicious gingerbread—a true taste of local tradition. For those who enjoy the outdoors, Grasmere offers numerous walking trails, including the scenic path around Grasmere Lake and the more challenging hike up Helm Crag for panoramic views of the surrounding fells.
