Rock The Boat 1,332 Posted September 7, 2017 [quote user="lake district canary"][quote user="lincsy88"]Thanks for the warm welcome guys, hope to meet some of you round the grounds or at a social club event in the coming months. Slightly different topic, lakey I''m coming up to stay in Windermere in November for a week, any recommendations on things to do?[/quote]First thing to do is to buy an umbrella ! ....but seriously, apart from the obvious walking/climbing stuff, the ferry across towards Hawkshead is worth the trip, some quieter shorelines on the other side, plus the Beatrix Potter experience and the Hawkshead brewery. Sizergh Castle is worth a vist a few miles away just south of Kendal. Grasmere is good to visit, as is Ambleside which has cinemas and good eating places. Keswick has indoor climbing walls and an Ice Wall and if in Keswick, good market on a Thursday, good theatre and cinema and you''re not far from Whinlatter Forest with go ape zip wires and stuff. Plenty to do! [/quote]Does the Beatrix Potter Experience involve getting nekked? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
