Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you want to go anywhere near the lake, take some shoes that you can wear in the water to avoid treading on all the stones!

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Be wary of your dog's paws too and consider taking something to help a hurt paw (Barney cut his paw in the water)

Luggage and bags: holdall will do, A rucksack is essential for carrying your daily supplies whilst out and about

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: casual clothes,fleeces t-shirts etc, walking boots and good waterproofes, hat and gloves if you intend tackling any of the higher peaks

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Insect repellant, blister treatment , basic first aid kit to care for scratches , grazes etc.In the summer dont forget suncream.

Photo Equipment: As many spare rolls of film/memory cards as you can lay your hands on-you will be taking photos constantly!

Miscellaneous: If you are self catering take a basic "storecupboard" selection with you as there are no supermarkets in the ullswater area and the local shop has a pretty poor selection, so tea bags,pasta and sauces,dried milk etc will be handy

 I spent most of my time in and around Ullswater Lake on my recent week's holiday in the Lake District. It's a beautiful lake, much longer than it first appears as it goes around a few corners! The...

A more sedate part of the lake district

 The lake district is a stunningley beautiful part of the u.k, but unfortunately it is a victim of its own success, often a visit to the lake district can be marred by the crowds-not exactly the peace...
