The snow is still here, but so is the sun. It’s cold but lovely, though not the temperature we had last year when the daffodils were over in about a week, as the temps were around 20C.

Daffodils at our holiday cottage, Brockstone with views over Rydal Water

This year the early daffodils are in deep freeze, and it will be weeks before all the daffodils are out unless there is a sudden heatwave. I took the photo above yesterday, as we swept the steps at Brockstone Holiday Cottage, Grasmere clear of snow.

Here’s another that I took, looking down over Rydal Water. The gate is on the “coffin route” between Rydal and Grasmere. You can find more details of this walk by clicking through this link for the walk round Rydal Water.
