    And another one "The Bridge"......

    I used to stay in some cottages in Seatoller... just the other side of Honister Pass.....

    and there are some decent B&B/Hotels in Keswick.....

    and now I think of it there was a nice little village Grange that had some great Cottages.....

    Great Gables is a "bracing" walk.... Park at Seathwaite.... do Green Gable, Windy Gap and then Great Gable.... then buy some Smoked Trout at the farm near the car....... Sorted!
    Thanks Drewster, I'm excited!

    It was a bit too desolate for me round Buttermere. I hope you like that.

    It's 5 or so miles up the road from Buttermere but I can heartily recommend Winder Hall.
