thanks for posting this (very well done)... the only trip I ever took outside the US was 53 years ago... 3 months in London (cheap then), since I just graduated as an English major...made the pilgrimage by train with my wife up to the Lake District...certainly an enchanting few days visiting many of the meaningful literary sites of my favorite poets...found memories...lovely to go back by means fo these videos...

Fab walk. I did wonder when I saw those raised bits by the road. I will visit and look for this walk. Where does it go to? Lancaster? A nice walking video this. Excellent. Wish we had the railway back into coniston. I always think train to lakes is best. As it's tooooo busy!

Don't know where you are getting your information from but the Twelve Apostles at Catacol were built in the mid-1800s as Clearance homes not for sheep, but for deer hunting. Catacol farm was originally built as a hunting lodge and the then Laird did not want the villagers disturbing his guests coming and going to the original village, which was up the hill beyond the lodge; nothing to do with spoiling his view. Also, no mention of each cottage having a different shaped front gable window (or supposedly why), or the Barking Shed at the mouth of the burn.

Lovely tour of the life and places George Herbert lived, served and worshipped. His was a life lived always for God. His poetry is another evidence of that fact. Thank God for his life!

Spent a week in lerwick with my partner. Loved it. We use to jump on the local buses, best transport to see a place. Every corner revealed a hidden gem. We visited just before the pandemic hit and hopefully will return. Its our new favourite place in the world

Which route would you recommend to return back to Grasmere from Rydal ? Thanks in advance.
@philmorr
@philmorr Ай бұрын
Many thanks for this. If walking back to Grasmere you could go round the south side of Rydal Water and then round Grasmere - easy paths. Or alternatively there is a regular bus service from Rydal to Grasmere.

There are some people's videos which I know I safely Like before I even what them. I loved the trip to the top of Snaefel - "As you can see, it's freezing cold and you can't see a thing." Beautifully filmed and presented, as usual.

Thank you for this great video, with all the historical facts. My mother is from Islay, but she left in 1954 to do her training as a nurse. Still have relatives there, we went there on holiday every year until I was 15 in the 1970's. Pleased to say it looks exactly the same.

The good lady & I have made three day trips to Fetlar each time in June. Apart from the wind it’s quite pleasant & restful. But the ferry crossings will take quite a lump out of your day.

My grandfather left Shetland in the 1890's, while in his late teens to become a seafarer. He would eventually settle in Sydney, Australia. I have walked Lerwick's streets, wondering if we might have shared a particular place, albeit separated by a century.

Thanks for this. I'm not sure where you can buy the CD 'The Authentic Sound of Shetland' from which the music in the Unst videos is taken, but I was given my copy at the Tourist Information Centre in Lerwick. The poem 'Relax sit here a peerie while' is inscribed on the bench overlooking Skaw Bay - I don't know who the author is.
