    Brad and Angelina have reportedly booked a secluded hideaway in the Lake District for their latest family break

    Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie may be used to holidaying in exotic locations, but when it comes to their summer holiday, the couple have decided on a good old English getaway - to the Lake District.

    According to insiders, the A-list couple, who have visited Cornwall, Scotland and London in the last year, have booked a sprawling boathouse, and decided to treat their six-strong brood to something different.

    It's thought Brad and Angelina first booked the Lake Windermere home earlier this year, when Angelina's Malificent movie was due to be filmed in the area.

    But after bosses decided to move production to Hertfordshire, and closer to the famous Pinewood studios, the couple decided to keep the booking anyway.

    'Originally, the film was supposed to be shooting near the Lakes, but relocated to a more convenient spot close to Pinewood studios,' one insider told the Mirror.

    'They'd already booked a few days off though, and they didn't want the kids to miss out on their trip up to the Lakes, so they decided to go anyway.

    'Brad has rented out an entire boathouse, and the couple have been looking up some local restaurants to dine at whilst there. They're also planning a day of quad biking for the kids – and Brad.'

    Sounds fun!
