The Bounty Bar Kid Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Is it only the south lakes you visit? Just got back from the north lakes and there's some great roads and views there! Esp road from Ullswater to Windermere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 This sounds excellent. Il have a chat to the wife and see if she wants to come or not, and go from there. Probably wont camp though, as just turned 30 and i like my luxuries! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 For anyone looking for accom. just pm me roughly what you want. There are lots of rental cottages, pubs, B&Bs, country house hotels. Michelin star restaurant/hotels, anything really. I can get cheaper rates for some. Heres an example to start you off. http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Search?q=cark+in+cartmel&geo=&pid=3825&returnTo=http%253A__2F____2F__www__2E__tripadvisor__2E__co__2E__uk__2F__#ssrc=v,o=0,c=global For this selection I have put in Cartmel as a search, thats two miles away. Do a search to get distances to the Rose and Crown. We have plenty of Taxis but they need to be booked well in advance. http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotels-g499539-Cartmel_Lake_District_Cumbria_England-Hotels.html http://www.cartmelvillage.com/accomodation.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexx Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 For those eagle eyed amongst you you'll have spotted my deliberate mistake in the banner. Ooops. Just to confirm it's 27-29th. I'll change the banners when I get 5 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daryl Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Got to ask the question, why is the show and shine on the Sunday, after all the driving etc, would it not be more logical to do it saturday morning or something, so that the cars are relatively clean?

Neilp Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I should be there. Shall be camping as usual 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daryl Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Will confirm when I get back from Cuba, but hopefully will be coming with another Zed, may camp too, depends on the facilities provided by the pub really. Guessing we can shower etc there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 The Show and shine is just a generic name, a friend who is a motoring journalist does the judging and he has a free choice just to pick which cars he likes for whatever reason. The big news is the THE SCAFFOLDING HAS GONE :yahoo: The pub now looks even better. The pub will provide breakfast each day, bar snacks throughout the day and the usual high quality evening meals. Please remember, if you want to eat at the pub please book well in advance, it gets very busy. I will post up sample menus nearer the time. Have a look on tripadvisor in the meantime. The hog roast will be around 7pm on Saturday. There is plenty but dont wait too long, I dont put any limits on repeat servings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allaboutthepasty Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Brilliant, this is right on my doorstep. Definitely penciling this one in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexx Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I should be there. Shall be camping as usual I'll be without the boys this time so will be able to have a few beers and a catch up. Ref show and shine - it's a traditional last day of show event as many people like to get an early start on a Saturday if they are going to any one of the numerous attractions in the area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
