Take A Cottage Break in Cumbria Like Withnail

One of my favourite movies of all time is Withnail and I, starring Richard E Grant and Paul McCann. In it, two out of work actors are reaching rock bottom, reduced to the status of a bun, and decide to get it away from the city with a trip to Uncle Monty's cottage. What they don't expect it for Uncle Monty to turn up during their break and decide that he wants payment in kind for their use of the cottage, telling Withnail "I mean to have you, boy, even if it must be burglary.".

Much of Withnail and I was filmed around Cumbria. So if you want a Withnail style break, sampling 'the finest wines available to humanity' at a Penrith café whilst you're there, visit this page dedicated to Cottage Breaks in Cumbria.
