    Very much enjoyed watching you on todays walk Patrick,hope you enjoyed your meal and then your couple of pints in the Golden Rule,and what a lovely day it sounds the following day,leaving the car and hopping on and off the bus,buying gifts and having some beers.
    A lovely surprise to wake up to this morning,I watched it first thing during breakfast on the tv.
    Glad you enjoyed the tea room too,it's those little things that make a day.

      Hi Pete, yes the food was good at the Royal Oak in Ambleside as well as a couple of pints in the Golden Rule. Wanted to get some local gifts to take back as it was Linda's birthday soon after this. That tearoom was a great stop on this walk. Thanks as always for watching and commenting 👍

    Beautiful waterfalls to start the walk Patrick, always nice! In good force too, maybe that rain the night before helped! The walk up to Wansfell Pike looked beautiful, lush green spaces and amazing views 👌 😍
    And what a lovely summit too, loved the view over Windermere 💚⛰️ the weather did indeed come in, and the rain was very much needed 🌧 👍
    Hawkshead is lovley too, well worth the visit 🍽
    Loved seeing Troutbeck too 👀 and a tea room, happy days! 😊 🐮

That climb up to Wansfell Pike was fantastic, I was buzzing by the time I got to the top! 😂 Definitely needed the rain and it didn't spoil the walk for me 🙂 Love Hawkshead, enjoyed a lovely meal in the Queens Head 👍 Troutbeck is a wonderful little village in that gorgeous valley, and that teashop was fab! Really enjoyed my cuppa! 🫖 Thanks for watching as always Ceri and Kat and have a really fab weekend too! All the best 👍😀

    What a lovely little village Troutbeck is. So glad you stopped for some tea in that weather but I know what you mean about once you stop it’s difficult to get going again, as I’m the same. September is usually lovely weather but due to the dry summer it was a bit wet this year. Glad you braved it for us because it’s got wonderful views up there. I’ve really enjoyed your Lake District walks and it’s always superb to watch your uploads. Take care Patrick and thanks ever so much for using your time to do them. Cheers

    • @solitaryrambler
      @solitaryrambler  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Troutbeck was a lovely little place, and that teashop was a very welcome stop under the circumstances. Thankfully I managed to push myself to go back out afterwards! Tha climb was tough onto Wansfell Pike, but very much worth it. Thanks Kelly as always for taking the time to watch and for commenting. All the best 👍

    Thank you Patrick. Hubby and I have enjoyed this one and your last one today during break times from decorating etc. They're both lovely walks and you can't beat a cuppa when you'r out. That's why we take a jetboil type cooker with us. Ultra light and as many hot drinks as you need 👌 😍

      @solitaryrambler  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you so much Steve. It was a nice week in the Lakes. Can't believe it was two months ago now! Yep the food in the Royal Oak was basic pub grub, but it was nice, not too expensive, and an easy place for my to eat whilst there on my own. Hope you get to the Lakes next year 👍

    Just shows how the Lake District weather can change so very quickly, and that you had your water proofs packed. Many visitors walking the fells aren't similarly prepared. In Lakeland “There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.” - Alfred Wainwright

You appear to have had a fab week Patrick and great to break it up with a couple of days on the bus; a fab way to explore new places and of course new pubs too! I never let the rain spoil my walks, as I'm sure you will have heard the cliche that there is no such thing as crap weather, only crap clothes and how true that is! Thanks again for your effort, loved it as usual and can't wait for the next one!!

    What a stunning place. I remember the climb up Wansfell being a bit of a tough one. My take on the weather in the Lakes is to watch the forecast and then completely disregard it and prepare for every eventuality! The revolving gate scene made me smile. If someone has built it then we should use it, unless wearing a large rucksack that is! Really enjoyed your Lake District adventures. I’m looking forward to my own trip there in a couple of weeks

    That was a plod up to the fell Patrick. Nothing more you can do when it's that steep - gets you there to them fine views. Watched end to end as always and enjoyed your amble into the tea shop. I have a walk lined up around Talgarth with a tea shop in mind to. Nothing better! Good to hear of the bus and beer to although I don't drink. If you'd caught me 14 years ago I would have had a few with you on trail. Well, I trust you've been well. We've had a spot of rain eh? Needed! Until next time all the best as always. Mark

    • @solitaryrambler
      @solitaryrambler  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was a brilliant climb Mark, quite long, but the path was easy to follow, as it was down the other side to Troutbeck, and by the time I reached the top I was just buzzing. The views were awesome indeed despite the rain. I enjoyed that little stop in the teashop. Ah Talgarth, not been there for many years. I know you'll have a great time walking around there Mark. Yeah it was nice riding on the buses all day, bit like what I used to do with the Red and White service buses around the Wye Valley and Hereford. I didn't have much to drink to be honest, but it was just nice to leave the car and enjoy a ride on the bus and have a drink in a couple of Lake District hostelries. Anyway off to lead a group walk for Lou and Lol in a while, so looking forward to that. Always good to hear from you Mark, hope you're keeping well too. All the best down there 👍

I can see you just sitting back and letting the drive do it with just the right amount of beers inside. Ha ha! All the best with leading the walk. Peace out.

      Oh yes indeed! I'm always checking the maps, but those bits don't normally get filmed! 😂👍

    So interesting to see places I haven't been to before. Stockghyll Force certainly impressive with its waterfalls. I think my memories of the Lake District has usually been hilly. As you say great views once on top. Not often seen you with your hood up but the weather has been unpredictable. Troutbeck seemed more relaxing. Can't beat a tearoom on route! Hope you enjoyed your ride on the buses. (Your music sounded familiar to me too. Perhaps from a previous film.)

      Stockgyhll Force was fab, so it was great to film that en route. Definitely needed my hood up here. Of course when I film local walks, I can pick and choose my days, but I just had to film what I could whilst I was staying in the Lakes for this particular week. That tearoom was lovely and could quite easily have stopped there longer. The bus rides were great. Just buy a ticket for £9 and you can ride all day anywhere in the central Lakes. Yes this music was an extended version of the same theme used in the last film. Thanks Shanita for watching 👍

    Hi, I have been to the Lake District several times on my trips to UK from NZ. My last time was in 2010 and we did Wansfell Fell as our last walk before returning to Manchester. We walked down to Troutbeck and has a beer in the "Mortal Man" pub. Must have gone back to Ambleside via the same route as you. Cheers.

      Thanks for watching David. I missed the pub in Troutbeck as I didn't walk up in that direction, but the teashop was very welcome. All the best 👍

    Nice video again Patrick. Just getting round to watching it as haven't been feeling great. Wonderful music from 4 min 17. What is the instrument at 5:05 ? I've wanted to ask you before as it sounds great.
    I've also missed video number 179 the day you got into the Lakes. Not sure how that happened...
    Very kind of you to make 3 videos from such a short time in the Lakes. Well done.

      Thanks David, glad you liked the music. Everything I play is on my Yamaha keyboard, but the voices used here are a guitar solo with a synthesised string accompanyment. It was nice to be able to make 3 films whilst I was here in the Lakes. All the best👍
