Well we've had some cracking weather in the Lake District this year so far – and long may it continue!
I thought I'd check in at the Met Office website to see what the weather in June is going to be doing and this is what I found -
'UK Outlook for 9 Jun 2011 to 23 Jun 2011: Rainfall amounts look to be close to or below average for the time of year for most parts of the UK. Sunshine is likely to be above average for the most part and this will help temperatures to achieve above average occasionally, or even well above the average in some parts!'
So it's looking good for June up to now and I may take advantage and book into one of the holiday lodges to ensure I don't miss out on some lovely walks in the sun – not that me and the pests mind the rain (that is after all what makes the Lakes what they are!!) but it will be nice – get some colour in our cheeks with lots of fresh air! We will have to be sticking to the 'Miles without Stiles' routes in the books in the cabins – Jester has arthritis and is lame alot of the time at the moment – which means short, controlled walks over the fells with no stiles that he has to clamber over. Luckily there's a few options for us, but he won't be doing Helvellyn again I don't think
June sees the 'Great North Swim' on Lake Windermere – you can have tea with Benjamin Bunny and Peter Rabbit at the Beatrix Potter Exhibition – free taster canoeing sessions – all within 10 minutes of the lodges on Limefitt Park & White Cross Bay – there's the Keswick Beer Festival & the Holker Festival – the dog show and family fun day at Oxenholme – the Vintage Home & Fashion Fair in Kirby Lonsdale – Cartmel Races & Food Festival – there's so much going on in the Lake District in June you might want to book in with windermerelogcabin.com for a week rather than a midweek or long weekend break! Check out the availability now – there's something for everyone in the Lake District & the log cabins & holiday lodges mean you have total flexibility for your break! What better way to relax! Calgarth Lodges, Tree Top Lodge & Glen Auldyn Lodge are all dog friendly!
