| This weekend in Eskdale was organised by the 40sWalkersNorth- the friendly Internet based walking club. Around 18 members arrived in Eskdale and stayed at a variety of places - Hotels, B & Bs, Campsites and Youth Hostels. Saturday evening was spent in the Brook House Hotel where we had an excellent meal- definitely recommended | |
