Well, i’m back. I went to the lake disctrict for 3 nights and it’s quite enjoyable, except our lodge having no hot water. The food around their was marvellous, especially for someone like me. The local scenery was brilliant and I generally had a great time! I thought the lake in Windemere was gorgeous, Ambleside was a nice little town too.
Overall rating :- 10/10

That’s a paradoxical statement if i ever heard one
It seems an accurate statement to me.
Some of the best of contemporary British cuisine hides behind labels like “Indian”, “Chinese”, etc.
You’ll struggle to find a Chicken Tikka Masalla in India, that’s for sure! 🙂

What else would you expect? Ambleside has two Chinese, a good Indian, a vegetarian Italian (really good, and with attached cinema) and lots of places for a latte/cappucino/espresso.
Just like the rest of England really. 🙂

Yes, please share any photos.
Did you have fun sitting out by the slipway trying to imagine new Sunderland flying boats being launched into Windermere – or was it too cold for that?
