It's not surprising that the Lake District, which forms the largest part of Cumbria, has inspired so many painters, poets and authors. The scenery is magnificent, with its soaring mountains framing spectacular lakes. One of my friends described it as being 'like Snowdonia only with bigger puddles!' It's only spoilt by the sheer number of tourists during the Summer season.
Sadly, this trip, I didn't have much time to explore or to take pictures, but I've promised myself a trip back there out of the tourist season, when I can explore to my heart's content.Meanwhile, here's a taster (but not as tasty as the damson and ginger ice cream I had in Bowness!)
