Rosthwaite
United Kingdom
The straggling hamlet of Rosthwaite with its whitewashed stone buildings, backed by the encroaching fells, is where accommodation has become concentrated for the Borrowdale valley. As we pass through the village, you will see that it is a typical Lakeland village with no pretensions and full of traditional features. The only village shop in the whole of the valley is to be found here, ideal for walkers and spectators of the annual “Borrowdale Fell Race” held on the first Saturday in August which starts in the village. This is an eighteen-mile gruelling, gut-wrenching race for fell runners who somehow manage to clock in at well under three hours despite having been up Scafell Pike, the highest mountain in England, and Great Gable, the seventh highest in the Lake District. You will be glad that the only effort you need is just to sit back and enjoy the views from the comfort of the bus.
