we were due to go there last May but had to cancel as hubby wasn't well and the owner of the cottage said we could have a free week in the winter but as it's a 3 1/2hour drive from here hubby is a little hesitant because of the fear of being caught out with the weather we are thinking of March what is it like up there then is it usually a kind month to visitors or not any advice would be welcome please?
Hi Sue, thanks for your comments on the photos
Oh what a shame you had to cancel your cottage though.
As for what the weather's like in March, its really hard to say as this year its been an awful year. I had a look back at some photos I took in March this year and there were some nice days at end of March. I didn't take any in March 2011, don't know why! In March 2010 we had all that snow and ice and the beginning of March was nice.
I think you just have to take a chance and hope that out of 7 days you get a few nice ones. In my opinion the Lakes are beautiful whatever the weather and it doesn't rain every day. Today is a beautiful day
By the way, you may be interested in this webcam which shows Keswick and Skiddaw which I check if I plan to go walking in that area.
