The Lake District in the Rain.
I realised that almost all of my videos are filmed when the weather is nice and sunny, however everyone knows that the weather in The Lake District, Cumbria is absolutely not sunny all the time. In fact it rains....alot! I thought it would be fun to revisit some of the beauty spots I've previously been to, only this time when the weather is wet and windy. Just to see if the scenery is as beautiful when it rains as it is when the sun is shining. Join me to find out as I visit Crummock, Buttermere, Honister Pass, Ashness Bridge & Surprise View Derwent Water!

Thank you I prefer the rain
Every time I go to the lakes camping….it rains and I love it as less people are about.

Cumbria may lack sun but it has atmosphere! One of my best walks was up Walla Crag in sheeting rain 🌧. No view at the top but we did find shelter under a rock at the top for lunch 🤣 exhilarating!

There’s something about being out walking in the rain that makes you feel good. 👍🏻 You just need to watch out for the slippery rocks. 😀
Great idea Paul to show the usual weather as well!

We loved it so much more in the rain! We'd really like to see more videos in the wet weather because we will be coming in your winter!

Thanks Kevin. 😀👍🏻 I think I actually prefer winter. It’s generally quieter and when we get snow on the tops it looks fantastic.
Was round Crummock couple months ago , and nice to see comparison in rain Done Honister pass in cloudy wet day and takes on an erie felling ..

It is quite spooky on the passes when the mist comes down. 😀👍🏻
Don't worry about mistaking the plastic clad hay bundle for a horse Paul. Before you even mentioned it, I thought it was a cow, (but then again, I'm a little bit pissed, being two pints of bitter, two pints of lager snake bite, and a bottle of ridiculously strong cider into the evening!)

As much as we love the Lakes in sunshine, we do like it even more in the rain. Maybe we are just daft. Another enjoyable video Paul, thanks.

Yes. Definitely something about being out in the rain that makes you feel good. I remember that you were here last year when everywhere flooded. Quite an experience . 👍🏻😀
Lovely video Paul…happy memories of going fishing with my dad on the river Derwent and sitting under the tress whilst it poured down 😊

Thank you. 👍🏻😀 I think sometimes the rain provides better memories than the sunshine. ☔️😃
haha what a stroke of luck - thanks for making your videos on buttermere, loweswater and crummock, really well made and informative. we were looking at a nearby campsite and we wanted to know what is in store for us when we come and explore in august! absolutely beautiful scenery.

Thank you. 😀👍🏻 You’ve picked a beautiful part of the lakes to visit. My favourite area actually. I’m sure you will love it. 😎
Great video as always Paul, thank you. We love a walk round Buttermere, the cafe you visited and then the road up to the slate mine (the tour there is great too). We visited mid-Jun and walked round Buttermere twice, once in the rain, once on a sunny day - both great and so different. The jeans were a definite foo-pah tho not as bad as the ‘land mine’ you found! Thanks Paul, keep them coming - what about a visit to Dodd Wood…?

Thanks David. 😀 Luckily the ‘land mine’ was from a sheep rather than a dog so it was fairly easy to clean up. 🤣 Dodd Wood & Mirehouse are certainly on my radar. 👍🏻
