Back home with a cup of tea and a piece of Grasmere gingerbread ...


And it's hard to imagine that only this lunchtime I was admiring the stunning view over Lake Windermere from the terrace of Blackwell, this lovely Arts and Crafts house. Currently number 1 on my list of houses I wish I owned.

G and I visited Blackwell on our one and only trip to the Lake District, and I was completely smitten. Even with all the amazing views, it's the part of the trip I remember best! xx

I would love the chance to go back there again... It has been far too long. I can still remember that wonderful Grasmere gingerbread though.

Isn't it gorgeous, Kristina! If only I'd married a 19th century Manchester brewer!

I hadn't been up there for years, Gina - apart from occasional flying visit for work, which doesn't count. Lovely at this time of year ... and the smell of gingerbread still wafts down the street in Grasmere.
