When it’s cloudy at ground level the best thing When it’s cloudy at ground level the best thing to do is get high up on the fells like some of our recent guests have done and then sent us these amazing pictures of cloud inversions from the top of Loughrigg. The next few weeks are looking dry and clear and it’s also your last chance to book in to the hostel before we move over to sole use bookings, still plenty of space over the rest of October so get booked and come see us.
This amazing group of friends and work colleagues This amazing group of friends and work colleagues stayed with us last weekend whilst they climbed 10 peaks from Bowfell to Sergeant Man to raise funds for Dementia UK. Huge well done to them all for completing there challenge and raising money for such a worth while charity. #elterwaterhostel #dementiauk #ihuk
