Looking for a weekend stay in the Lake District in the next month or two... any suggestions? Can't even narrow it down to where abouts because I have never been. Would be nice to take the camera for an outing, but I guess most of the LD is good for that.

All suggestions welcome :)
 
Spectre - I've stayed at Hipping Hall before prior to the National meet. It's not cheap by any means but it's very nice indeed and the food/wine is superb.

LOL... it's for the wife's birthday... not sure how impressed she'd be if I tell her we're having a weekend away, get to the hotel and the car park is full of Z4's?!
 
Cheers for the suggestions... will take a look... proper LD newbie I am... bit embarrassing considering it's only a couple of hrs away
 
I've stayed at this one a few times with work and would reccommend it, :thumbsup:

I'm trying a different approach... just persuaded her to buy her first BMW. Hoping now she'll get hooked too :thumbsup:
 
Try the Brown Horse Inn Winster about 10 min drive from Windermere

Friends have stayed and loved it :)

Ullswater is where Kirkston pass is that road leads to windermere, ambleside, kendal and Keswick so its a pretty good place to be :thumbsup:

Technically her birthday is on the Friday, so we are going to an eye-wateringly expensive restaurant for dinner that night to make up for the Zs on the Saturday & Sunday... I think Ranski is taking a similar approach on the Saturday :D
