Lakeside district top 5 tips must watch before going.

We stayed in Yha windermere hostel and it was worth it, Tip1. Buses comes after 1-2 hour, plan it before head and few days doesnt run as well. Tip2. Around 5 most places are closed, start early Tip3. If you are with elders or kids and doesnt have car than opt for lakeside taxis app and it was convenient or if alone you can get cycle from the station and keep your luggage around the area Tip4. Dont forget to visit gingermere for ginger bread, only they make it. Tip5. Must try sticky toffee pudding, we did at amberside. Tip6. You should try elderflower sparkling water, i personally liked it.

Castlerigg Stone Circle

Castlerigg stone circle is 3 kilometers 37 minutes from Keswick by walking or you can drive there limited free parking on the road side. It is open 24 hours with no entrance fee. Castlerigg was built 4000 years ago by prehistoric farming communities for providing a setting for rituals or ceremonial activities, social exchanges and the movements of goods. The rectangle stone setting within the circle known as sanctuary, is likely to be a later addition to focus attention upon one part of the circle. Sheep is around the site, so there is a stone wall to surround it. Children can play with the sheep and climbing on the stone.
