Even in winter, the Lake District is a stunning place to visit!! These pics were taken down by Keswick and the wonderful viewpoint that is Friar’s Crag.

The Lakes are quieter this time of year. The traditional Lakeland pubs have the roaring fires going. What can be better than a gorgeous walk in the fells followed by a well earned pint by the fireside…?

Honister Pass Slate Mine nr Buttermere is a fantastic place to visit when staying at our holiday cottage. Whatever the weather!

These pics were taken this weekend.

Combine the visit with the relatively easy walk up Fleetwith Pike for one of the best views in the Lake District.

Just the road to get here is exciting as it twists and turns up the 25% slopes.

There are so many activities at Honister Slate Mine, it’s worth checking out their social and website for details.

The Oak at Curthwaite is another great local pub, undergoing a new lease of life under new management. It’s looking really promising and it’s great that another local pub is going to be available to our guests at Ellwood House.

Can’t beat a stroll around the quiet lanes of the Northern Fells and then popping into the Black Lion at Ireby for a well deserved pint.

As we said in an earlier post, the local
Community is trying to buy and run the village pub. It will be great for visitors and locals alike if we can keep this lovely local pub running.

It’s a short drive from Ellwood House in Caldbeck or perfect for a visit while cycling the Northern Fells.

We are very lucky to have some cracking pubs in the North Lakes. Part of what makes the area so special.

We’ve got Autumn and Winter availability so why not book you stay with us today.

Check out this breakfast buttie from the The Muddy Duck Cafe & Tearoom in Caldbeck. Just down the road from Ellwood House.

With the sunny weather we are getting, what better thing to do first thing in the morning is let the Muddy Duck do the breakfast cooking.

Another good reason to visit Caldbeck...just saying...!

P.S. they usually can take card payments 😁

A perfect day for a bacon and sausage swirl butty 🥪

If you are visiting us today or this weekend please bring cash as alternative payment as the mobile signal in Caldbeck keeps going off again which is affecting our card machine 💙

High Pike and Carrock Fell are the closest fells to Caldbeck village and they are quite splendid. The panoramic views in all directions are simply stunning.

And the best bit is you can walk straight from the door of Ellwood House. And you will hardly see a soul, even at this time of year. Perfect.

Caldbeck is a super location for a walking holiday in the Lake District.
