National Parks (UK and Republic of Ireland)
The UK has fifteen National Parks; ten in England, three in Wales and two in Scotland and we adore them all for their own unique beauty. From the water of the Lake District and the Broads to the mountains of the Cairngorms and Peak District and all the different landscapes between, all of the national parks are protected to ensure their beauty lives on for future generations to enjoy.
The Republic of Ireland has six national parks. The first park created in Ireland is Killarney found in Kerry county in 1932, and since then five more national parks have been created and the most recent ones being Ballycroy in Mayo county.

Bridge End - Little Langdale - Lake District
Looking across from Little Langdale towards the Langdale Valley with the Langdale Pikes just visible in the background, with Bridge End farm also in view. The farmhouse was built in the 17th century, with a later 19th Century addition, and is currently listed at Grade II. It is a National Trust property rented to a local family and is no longer a working farm. The farmhouse is mentioned in Wordsworth's 'The Solitary'.
