The classic misty morning view of Esthwaite Water on my commute to work, I cannot resist taking this picture, and its easy to see why.

Crazy!! another Bank Holiday is looming, lets hope the good weather holds.

We are quite busy this coming week although we still do have an odd vacancy.

Another big long walk this afternoon its so good to get out and about.

It was like a summers day yesterday, all the expected guest arrived by mid-afternoon so we took the chance to a have a good 2 hour plus walk, we had a bench themed walk, first one is the Buckle Yeat Bench at Piggling Bland corner, then onto the newly painted( still wet) bench at Rawlinsons Nab before arriving at the Helget Bench at Wilfin Beck bridge

A fantastic warm and sunny Easter weekend, we had an unusual breakfast request this morning Poached eggs in a cup!!! the customer is always right.

One family from Ireland due in today and they should be here at lunchtime so if they are we are planning a long walk to the Drunken Duck

 Behold the magic pie! so called because as you remove it from the nondescript brown cardboard box it just seems to grow and grow and look impossible to return to the box ( I am thinking I've mentioned this before)
It was a gift from regular visitors Bob and Pat from Leicester mmmmmmmm

I was dealing with some departing guests the other morning and saw an elderly man standing by the garden wall, he had a shifty look round and then proceeded to tear a large piece of the rockery plant of the wall top and deposit it into a carrier bag!! The cheek of it!
 Of course I let him know he had been spotted I think word is SHEEPISH

The Helget Bench @ Wilfin Beck

 It was a lovely sunny morning and then it clouded over a little bit this afternoon but its a pleasant enough day

What you looking at?

I was given this object by longstanding guests Derek and Vicky they said they had wondered what to buy the man who has everything ( it can not be they are talking about).
What is it you ask, well you will have to guess, suggestions on a postcard as they say.
