flanker May 2018 1:49pm, 15 May 2018 17,574 posts	0 flanker Can never decide is Duddon or Eskdale is my favourite part of the Lakes; beautiful, quieter places. And some great pubs in both. (and at other times it's the central fells and Wasdale, when I feel I can face people on my hill ;-)!).
Northern Exile May 2018 2:24pm, 15 May 2018 4,662 posts	0 Northern Exile Eskdale definitely has its charms 😊
Rosehip May 2018 9:36pm, 24 May 2018 10,542 posts	0 Rosehip Drat can't gatecrash on the 28th after all Youngest and I shall be camping nr Caldbeck from Thurs 31st (or if I can wangle it Wed 30th) to the Sunday. Who's around? Which parkrun should I aim for on the Sat? Youngest has been tasked with choosing which fells we're going to aim for - OL4,5 and 6 are all missing from the bookshelf
DavidAP May 2018 9:38pm, 24 May 2018 185 posts	0 DavidAP If you're on any hill before 10am or after 4pm you'll have peace. The masses don't seem to congregrate on the fells outside of those hours
Rosehip May 2018 9:40pm, 24 May 2018 10,543 posts	0 Rosehip I've noticed that - luckily we have a springer spaniel shaped alarm clock with us
eL Bee! May 2018 9:51pm, 24 May 2018 20,371 posts	0 eL Bee! It's because all of the tearooms are shut before 10 and after 4
Velociraptor May 2018 9:57pm, 24 May 2018 38,327 posts	0 Velociraptor We're around, Rosehip, surprisingly Planning to be at Workington parkrun that weekend. It's worth a visit.
Rosehip May 2018 10:01pm, 24 May 2018 10,544 posts	0 Rosehip Adding to the parkrun tourism would be good - youngest can hold the dog and/or volunteer if needed

Maintained by Northern Exile

Somewhere you can confidently ask "which is the best chip shop in Keswick?" and expect an intelligent reply.

Lots of experience and good advice available here, from which B & B or YHA to the best fell for Grandma to climb :-)
