the belsfield lake district












in line with trying to make the most of our london base, it was high time for a visit to the lakes! funny to go off-peak (january in the lakes? really?) but it was a good jaunt nevertheless. we'd a lovely suite overlooking lake windermere as a little post-exam treat and i spent a happy afternoon reading while soaking in the beautiful view. there's a certain picturesque moodiness to the lake in winter and just what i needed after, uh, a weekend of intense revision. any excuse :) the grounds were amazing and the hotel so charming, i can only imagine what she looks like at the height of summer. excellent restaurant on site and hmm, i wasn't expecting such culinary awesome-ness from the lakes, to be absolutely honest with you! we each had a massive sticky date pud swimming in toffee sauce with equally massive scoops of ice cream and double cream. i mean, let's just go all out right? :) would've taken a photo but we'd company and i didn't want to play right into that dreaded asian stereotype!
