Just got back off Holiday.


This is were we stayed on holiday. Keen Ground Cottage Hawkshead, Cumbria.

The history of Hawkshead.

Some more history and photos of Hawkshead, Cumbria.

Well it's back to reality again now, we all had a great time lovely walks and fantastic weather I don't suppose I will get 6-8 hour walks a day now. Having said that though there's a big difference from the countryside to the concrete jungle I'm used to.

The only change now is the patio set's been moved down, there's a bench against the wall of the cottage and the wooden gates have bee replaced by iron ones.


I settled right in and took up a prime spot of looking down the lane for intruders.

Chilling out with Mum and Grandma.


Mum and Dad loved having breakfast on the patio and of course I had to join them.

Do you want me to help out with the driving Dad.

More photos to follow.

Some random holiday pics.




The one thing I liked about the holiday was all the locals were so trusting, all the farmers sold there produce from all the little lanes and house owners would sell homemade jams and chutneys from outside there homes with an honesty box to put your money in, it was like stepping back in time.



Even the local chapel had a sign outside saying free tea and biscuits and dogs welcome.



These photos were took on a lovely sunny day, you could see the sun between the mountains but they turned out more stormy looking.

We've just booked our holidays for this year back to the Lake District again, instead of 2 weeks over Christmas and New Year like we did last year we're going away for Grandmas birthday in June and then a week for Christmas staying in the same area but different cottages.

In June we're staying in Keen Ground Cottage.

And December we're staying in Croft Barn Cottage
