Mini Trip.... The Lakes

Our Deluxe Lodge

The beautiful surroundings

This weekend my husband and I spent the weekend at Lake Windermere in the Lake District with our pet pooch Bruno. We were later joined by my brother, sister in-law and our two nieces and nephew for a lovely family break.

We stayed at White Cross Bay in a deluxe lodge which overlooked the lake and was so beautiful. The park facilities are excellent and the kiddies especially loved the swimming pool and the playground.

While we were there we visited the Beatrix Potter Attraction which was really quaint and great for Peter rabbit & Jemima Puddle Duck fans like me, the kids enjoyed it too!

 

 

We had Sunday lunch at the Kirkstone Pass pub which is really high up in the hills, stands alone in the mist and is said to be haunted! The food was excellent, very reasonably priced and dog friendly. Its a cosy and traditional pub with a log burning fire, the only downside was the fact that the people in there didn't seem to like the company of the children. They were on their best behaviour, but we still received the disgusted glances so we hot footed it into the 'family room' where we were left in peace to have a nice 'family' lunch.

I highly recommend a trip to The Lakes, its such a beautiful place and is really great for spending quality time with your family.
