Summer Holiday Weeks in our Grasmere Cottage.

No Summer Holiday Weeks in our Grasmere Cottage left ! I wrote this piece on Saturday, 2 June 2018. It’s now Wednesday 6 June and I’m delighted to say that all three weeks have now been booked! I’ll leave the post up, as it has lots of useful information in it.

We do still have the October half term available if you’re looking for a school holiday week in 2018, and we are taking bookings for the Summer Holidays 2019 if you want to book ahead.

If you can stay the week of 21-28 July, you will be here for Ambleside Sports, one of the best traditional days out in the Lake District. This year it takes place on Thursday 26 July. You can walk from Brockstone Grasmere Cottage to Ambleside Sports in about 20 minutes along a beautiful path. Here’s the official website for Ambleside Sports. It’s a great thing to do on Summer Holiday. Here’s an article I wrote the other year about Ambleside Sports and things to do in the Lake District in summer.

If you can visit the week of 18-25 August, you will be here for the Lakeland Country Fair on Sunday 19 August,  and you’ll also be able to visit one of my favourites, the Hawkshead Show on Tuesday 21 August. Our family love the Hawkshead Show!.
