We have just spent 3 beautiful days at Grange in Borrowdale on the southern tip of Derwent Water. The days have been sunny, nights crisp and we are staying at the lovely small hotel - a return visit having stayed here back in 1999.

Borrowdale Gates
We have done 2 long walks in the past two days - a steep climb up to Cat Bells with great views across the lakes and farmland and a leisurely 5 hour even walk around Derwent Water. I hope the photos will give you the feel of the beautiful part of the world.

Lots of families enjoy the climb
The walk down is just as challenging as the climb up but Phil managed it well. I would liek to think i could still do it when I'm 84 but I'm unlikely to have a 62 year old to accompany me!!!
