    When you said ‘calendar material’ I wondered, had you ever thought of making one? I’d be interested and there could be opportunities to sell locally. I reckon you could put together a nice series showing the Lakes at its best month by month that offers something a bit more original than just the usual Ashness Bridge shot :)

    Having stayed in Ambleside for loads of family holidays, Wansfell has always been a great walk to do with the kids. Weirdly we always seemed to get a little lost returning from Troutbeck to Ambleside. Many thanks for posting Glenn. The world feels pretty scary at the moment so watching the magic of the Lakes feels very calming.

    Did the walk yesterday morning in the rain and visibility at the top was non existent. However, we knew that it was due to be the hottest day in the UK so we had a bite to eat and waited....OMG the rain mist and clouds vanished before our eyes and we were left with the most magical view ever it was totally exhilarating. Keep up the good work.

    A joy to watch from beginning to end! Lovely low key vibe to this one BC, from the stunning aerial footage to kick things off to the softer dialogue tones and awesome light and scenery along the way - beautiful! Amazing photos to end with too, what a great way to end my weekend! Brings back memories of our own week in the lakes just a week ago - blissful family time in our favourite place in the whole world. We are 47 holidays here so far and counting. Cant wait from the next one in Aug and your next video to get us in the spirit.

    You do get wonderful views of Windermere when the weather plays ball 😁.

    Maybe it's just the mood I'm in today, but whilst Wansfell is a nice little convenient climb, and does possess excellent views, suggesting it as possibly the Best in the world only makes me wonder if you've never looked west from Fairfield's plateau, south from Skiddaw Little Man or anywhere from Scafell Pike? Which I'm sure you have.
