Questions & Answers
Q. Question? I have booked a romantic weekend away in a hotel in the lake district for me and my fiancee, we are newly engaged. I want it to be very romantic etc the room is very nice and have bought sexy lingerie etc but what else could i do to make it that much more special for us?

A. Best Answer: Having the room lit up with lots (10, 20, 30?) of little candles (you know those small kinda flat, disk shaped ones?) would be really nice and memorable for when you head to the bed :) ...

A few rose petals over the bed would be a nice touch :) ...

Massage oil, and a nice sensual massage can always be nice :) ...

Some expensive chocolates can be good to set the mood before hand ...

Maybe looking for new positions on the net, something to surprise him a bit?

And of course, a nice dinner, and possibly a walk beforehand :) ...

Any way, best of luck, I hope yous really enjoy yourself :) ... And best of luck when the big day does come! :) ....

Q. Question? Me and my boyfriend want to go to the lakes end of august for our holidays. Any ideas of places to go and hotels/cottages/b&bs to stay?

A. Best Answer: I live in the lake district and theres a tonne of them, also remember that lake windermere is actually in bowness-on-windermere technically, so dont think you'll be right next to the lake in windermere. Windermere will be packed with tourists and really isn't the best lake in the district anyway, not many locals think it's a nice place and drug and crime rates are high, try coniston, it's much nicer, much less busy, theres more local shops that arent tourist orientated, less mainstream hotels and traffic and the scenery basically takes a dump on lake windermere. It's not much further along, about 20 minutes drive.
Just google accommodation and loads will come up, theres also a letting holiday agent I know of called 'lake lovers' try their website, they specialise in lets for holidaying couples.
Also the night lifes pretty bleak, and in the one all night serving bar in windermere/bowness you need to be a local with papers to get into as tourists have caused so many problems. Try Kendal or Kirkby Lonsdale for a nice meal or night out.

Q. Question? back in 1912, in Windermere, in the Lake District. The house was called 'The Rosary' and I'd like to find it and visit it so any information would be very welcome. I realise that it may have been turned into a hotel or even demolished but if anyone could help me find the location I'd be very pleased. Thanks.

A. Best Answer: I wonder if the following might be of any help : -

Clubs
Secretary – Chris Jones, The Rosary, Heron Syke, Burton-in-Kendal , LA6 1LG ...
Treasurer – Margaret Lister, 25 Crown Rigg, Bowness on Windermere , Cumbria ...

Q. Question? Coronation street have filmed some recent episode in the Lake district, around Honister pass and slatre mine.
My question is what was the hotel called that Maria ran into to ask for help?
I ask because when the manager told Mountain rescue the name i was sure he said Rampsbeck Hotel but this is near Ullswater, which is miles out of range for the Keswick Mountain rescue.
Can anyone name that hotel for me as it is now annoying me.
Thanks.
If it was the Rampsbeck then ITV really messed up there didn't they....
I mean...it was one heck of a walk for pregnent Maria to go....especially at night...
What a woman......

A. Best Answer: It is the Ramsbeck Hotel. I just checked it out on the ITV site.

Q. Question? Those women who take the masculine approach (and this is precisely why I despise Hilary Clinton) such as Margaret Thatcher have very little to fear.

It is those women who take the feminist approach and/or threaten the male dominions of army, legal system, etc. who pose the threat.

In addition to savage murders and assassinations of Bhutto and other politicians, there are scores of unsolved deaths of actresses, writers and artists. Several of John Kennedy`s girlfriends were assassinated, including the Washington artist Mary Meyer.

And if you bother to research it you`ll find scores of writers, newspapaperwomen and other women in power victims of outrageous and savage acts.

Cid Ricketts Sumner, the author, was bludgeoned to death whilst a female editor at `Reader`s Digest` was tied and beaten to death at her home in Pleasantville, New York (nearby to the Digest offices)

The female owner of a Lake District hotel was not only murdered but savagely murdered.

Think on it

A. Best Answer: So really they are not murderers, but murdered.

There are far more men both murdered and murderers. You selection of the few violent instances involving women no where compares those of men. If you are concerned with violence I suggest you start with men.

Q. Question? I want to book a weekend break for myself and my husband to celebrate our birthdays and our wedding anniversary. I would like somewhere romantic.......thanks for your help!

A. Best Answer: Have a look at www.laterooms.com they offer great hotels with breakfast at cheap rates. I use them all the time.

Q. Question? me and my boyfriend want to go away to the lake district for a week in january but everywhere we have looked has been too expensive! anyone ever been and could help me??!!

A. Best Answer: Well, this is one we have stayed at a couple of times.....both Summer and Winter! Really friendly atmosphere, nicely decorated rooms, which are really cosy in the winter, and if you're lucky, a room overlooking the lake;

Q. Question? 2 adults, a 5 year old and baby
to stay for a few days next week with decent facilities if weather is bad

A. Best Answer: I would do a search on the web or check out the Keswick or Whitehaven sites. Keswick is a tourist area a little expensive and Whitehaven is a distance away but cheaper.....I hope you are going to have access to a car as you will need it as the transport up here is not the best. While here try to go to The Ratty....its a train, open and enclosed carriages.... that takes you through the fells. Your 5yr old will love it. When you get to the end of the line ask for directions to dale force it is a waterfall. it is really beautiful. If raining go to the Maryport Aquariaum again the children will love it...There are a number of touch pools so the children can actually touch the fish it is quite small.....just watch their fingers lol.....Hope you have good weather...Next time come up to the Maritime Festival lots of activities but book accomodation early.....
