Keswick Camping and Caravan Club Site

Friday, 11th January 2019

A mild but grey morning, with a noticeable dampness in the air, as we leave Coniston Coppice Park CAMC Site and make our way to Keswick Camping and Caravan Club Site (N54 36'19" W3 8'47").

A short drive this morning, road not wide enough for Kathleen's taste.

A rather confusing destination this, two  sites, right next door to each other, one called Keswick Club Site, one called Derwent Water Site, both run by the Camping and Caravan Club. At this time of year the Derwent Water Site is closed. The Keswick Site is the one next to the Rugby Club, and, on the Lake Shore.

We arrive at 12:40, admission is not until 13:00, already, there is a queue!

A short stroll around Keswick, Church times checked out for Kathleen, and coffee and cake. Easy day.

We have had quite a reasonable run of weather, considering it is mid-winter, but, it appears to have ended. Very windy last night, grey and wet this morning, the surrounding hills are not even visible under blanket of low cloud.

Kathleen has started the hair washing routine, so, that should be her amused for half a day. Looks as if I will be reading my book, or, "playing" on the internet.

Kathleen completes the Church run, getting rather wet in the process. She really is going to be rather annoyed if I "get in" on her membership ;)

High winds and rain, not exactly pleasant, but, by 10:30, there was a patch of blue sky and a hint of sunshine.

A very good Sunday Lunch at Pack Horse Inn, followed by the obligatory stroll to Friars Cragg.

Predictably, since we are leaving, a bright and sunny day!

Uneventful drive home.
